I'm looking for people with similar goals so we can work towards the same goal together and support/motivate one another.
I don't have much "weight" to lose (5-10 lbs) but I want to turn my fat into muscle, so I may even gain weight. The number on the scale is not my priority. How my clothes fit and how I look IS! My main goals are to:

1. Eat healthy
2. Work towards a lean body
3. Gain muscle mass
AT HOME - no gym membership here

My inspiration:
1. Zuzana Light from www.bodyrock.tv
2. Jillian Michaels

My faults:
1. I'm lazy
2. I love carbs
3. I hate cardio

My current diet it just counting calories. I need to educate myself on nutrition for body building, as I've hit a plateau. I've lost about 10-12 lbs and that's as far as my diet is willing to take me. Now it's time to get busy! I've got my sights set on a 5k in October.

If this sounds like you as well, please add me :)

P.S. I'm from Alaska and I love doing things outdoors: hiking, kayaking, rock climbing. I hate to run but I'm hoping to change that here soon. Who's with me?!

    Feel free to add me or find me on Facebook.

    Keep in mind you can't turn fat into muscle, but make sure you take some pictures and measurements of yourself to gauge progress. I'm glad you don't have the mentality of the number on the scale, but see the importance in achieving a 'look'.

    Feel free to add me, I have more to lose (still 20lbs) but I also outdoorsy and hate cardio. Also I have been doing Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and it has dropped 7 inches total from me so far....and I am only on day 11.

    I'm with you! I'm not interested in losing any weight but I am interested in increasing lean muscle and could always improve my diet. :smile:
    I'd love to hike or rock climb but I'm in Florida, no hills let alone mountains. Your mountain pic is making me envious.:love:
