    Wow, I am completely inspired by so many people with the same weight loss goal.

    How about a 3-month challenge, starting tomorrow, March 1 through June 1, the beginning of summer.
    If I lose 15 pounds by June 1 (a very reasonable goal), and another 15 pounds by August 1, I will have accomplished my final goal while it's still boating/bathing suit season. I can do that. Who else is in?

    I'm not good with spreadsheets, but if anyone would care to create one for this group it would be a helpful way to keep each other motivated.

    Another option is to start a group, but I haven't seen much success with those.

    You all sound very similar to me. I am 39 and a mom of two. I am trying to loose 30 lbs. I have been doing this for about 2 -3 weeks now. Keeping it up, especially when you are so busy and have alot going on can be tricky. I keep reading posts so i can learn from everyone.

    I'm 30 years old, mom of a 8mth old and 4yr old. Trying to lose 20lbs. Lost 8lbs already by watching my calories. I am currently doing the 30 Day shred and although my scale hasn't moved as much (it keeps fluctuating so I don't bother with weighing myself anymore), I have lost 3 inches from my belly after doing 11 days of the shred. I strongly recommend the shred cause it's only 20mins long, and you really get results.

    We are about the same weight and age. I just had my first child last April and I have had a hard time losing the weight since then. Feel free to friend me if you would like, and good luck!

    Hi! I'm 28 (turning 29 this summer) and am also trying to get back to my fightin' weight of 135, from about 5 years ago. I'm at 160 right now, and lost 5 lbs. last month doing that stupid HCG diet (though I only stuck with it for a week). Getting married this August has made me realize I need to get my butt in shape! Good luck to you all!
