    Hi, I'm Rebecca. I'm 37, 5'6", I currently weigh 120. I work as a medical assistant at a pediatric office, and I'm in nursing school. I have 3 children, who are my motivation, and a wonderful boyfriend who keeps me grounded. I used to smoke, but haven't had a cigarette in 2 years. I do go to title boxing club, usually twice a week, and do some core training at home when I'm not too exhausted. I'm trying to maintain that weight, as I have been losing weight lately without trying, and after blood work, etc. I've been told it's stress, and that I need to increase my caloric intake, and exercise to reduce stress. When I do get stressed out, I don't eat much, I tend to hyperfocus on things and just forget, or I have no appetite in general. I dropped down to 113 in about 3 months, and have been struggling to stay above 117 since January. So if there's anybody out there who's looking to gain lean muscle and be more physically fit in general, let me know. :)

    Hello,
    I am 5'9 1/2", 20 years old from the big NYC. I am an aspiring actress and am constantly looking for motivation.
    I stay fairly active, workouts, sports, dance, etc. But it would be wonderful to have a partner in crime :). I am currently 140lbs and am hoping to lose 20lbs by July at the LATEST! I have many motivational blogs and tumblrs which I follow, and they have helped me a lot.
    I wish the best to all of you. Keep up the spirit!
    xoxo
    B.

    I don't see why you would go down 20 lbs you are at a very healthy weight according to your height. Actually a little under currently. Maybe you should work on strengthening and toning and it'll change your body as well. Wish you well and health!

    I love this idea! I'm Cyndi and I just recently joined MyFitnessPal. I am 26, though only for one more week. I'm 5'2 and currently 171 lbs. My current goal is a 20lb loss. I'll think of a new goal once I reach that one.

    I'm definitely looking for some motivation.

    I'm Mia, I'm 5'10, and 200 pounds. I love swimming, and riding my bike. I want to lose weight because I want to be able to find clothes because i like them, not because they fit. It's important to me that i keep up a loving relationship with my body, and that's part of it. I love singing, and one of my goals is to lose weight so that i can make musical cast size by September. :)

    busy as can be, but no kids

    I love to work out but cannot find the time and the stress of life had been hard on my fitness goals.

    Are there any friends out there for me?!

    heyyy

    Names Ash 26 married with toddler work full time and play basketball year round. I have always been athletic and played college basketball. July 2012 I decided it was time to grow up and eat better for myself and my family.

    I am new to Fitnesspal but I was a member at sparkpeople before this. My fav apps are runkeeps, secspro and of course myfitnesspal!

    I joined this group to try and find friends who are eating healthy not just here to lose weight while eat poptarts everyday. I want to support and be supported.

    Cheers,
    Ash

    I'm so excited to have found this group!

    I'm Morgan. 28 years old and 5'2. My starting weight is 180 pounds and I'm looking to get down to 110 (since I'm quite short). I've been yo yo-ing the same forty pounds for the last ten years, so I'm excited to finally get healthy the right way, rather than through short cuts. I'm new to MFP, but have tried Spark People in the past. My favorite apps are My Fitness Pal (obviously!), Water Your Body (great free app), and Zombies, Run!

    Looking forward to finding my MFP doppelgänger :D
