New here!! - 22yo need to lose 50+ pounds!

missbecs7

Hey everyone! I'm a newbie!

My name is Becca, I'm 22 - I'm also a mommy. I live in Idaho, but my husband is joining the active duty Army (he goes to MEPS this month to process in) so who knows where we will end up!! I'm starting on a journey to lose 50+ pounds! I'd like to weigh 115, but I'd probably look and feel great at even 125 (I'm only 5'3).

If anyone would like to motivate each other to work out six days a week, that's what I need! I recently joined the YMCA and have been going 6 days a week, mainly doing cardio. 3 days a week of running for 30 minutes, and 3 days a week of ZUMBA for 30 mins. If you are active, around the same age, a mommy, and really motivated to lose weight... add me! Let's work on it together!!

I just changed my work out schedule, I'm doing 5 days a week while my bootcamp class is going on. I do the Couch to 5k program 2xs per week, my aunts aerobics class twice a week, and a bootcamp on sundays.

Running the days after my bootcamp is just too much strain. My legs are hurting, and I'm hoping it's not an injury.

I would definitely be willing to help motivate you if you'll give me a kick in the pants now and then, lol!

Hey there!

Well I'm not a mama but we are about the same age (I'm 21) and it sounds like we like to do the same type of exercising. I love to run and do Zumba. I'd love to work to keep each other motivated if you'd like! I'll add you.

Hello!
I don't know if you'll think I'm close to your age..... but I'm 28. I'm a new mum - she's 16 weeks old. I've lost 65 pounds since just before having my baby (21 since joining MFP). I'm still off work so I get to mums' fitness classes where you can take your baby along with you 3 times a week and go swimming once a week. I'm hoping to start some other classes that fit in with my work when I go back in 6 weeks time.
I need to lose about 28 more pounds to be the weight and size I would like to be for my wedding in 19 weeks. Seems a pretty mammoth task so I could do with all the support I could get.
Add me if you like

I'm 23, not a mom, but I'm 5'4" and 185 pounds and want to get rid of the extra 50 pounds before I start a family. I've lost a good chunk of weight before and my asthma improved dramatically so I want to see how close to eliminating it I can get from weight loss alone. I need to get down to at least 150 to be healthy, I want to get down to 130 to feel awesome.
