    Hi -

    I'm at 163.5 now, trying to get back to 130's.

    All please feel free to add me, but please just send a little note so I remember who you are. :)

    I will not do pics, as I am uncomfortable with that being on the internets, but I could post measurements! Anyone want to do a challenge, or just a group to keep track of each other?

    I love this!
    I took pics but I don't have time to post them right now, and i'm scared to post them lol. I'll add them later:frown:

    my SW is 159 (im surprised I got back down there, i've been stuck at 160) so who knows if I can STAY there.

    but yes i'll post my pics later on.

    this is a great idea!

    I'm in!

    SW: 166
    CW: 170
    GW: 150's - for now but the smaller I could get the happier I would be.

    I just started in the group - Eat More to Weigh Less so I upped my calls to 1900 and I'm on my 2nd week of that. This weekend I'm going to clean up my diet and prep a bunch of food for the week so I stay on track. With lifting heavy the pounds might not drop off as fast but I'd be happy if I was losing inches and that's not happening right now. January I was 162 lbs so I have gone up almost 10 lbs. That needs to change ASAP. Feel free to FR me.

    Hey, I have similar stats, even a similar icon! Anyone here feel free to add me! Maybe we should set up a Group "170 to 130"

    SW: 169
    GW: 135 (not quite sure about that yet)
    CW: 160

    I've been stuck at 160-161 for 2-3 weeks now. I've just started doing some calorie zig-zagging to try and break the plateau.

    Notice mine are faceless ;)
    No one can identify me neck down...lol

    Even if you don't post them TAKE them! It will be the best thing you ever did!

    It is very motivating to see so many ladies that are also "STUCK" in the 160s!! I am flirting with the line... scale tends to bounce around from 158-162 (Of course I count that as 158 though!) But I've been here for over 1 month now!! Ready to flirt with the 150 line instead! Excited to join you all in the group. Feel free to add me! I love the energized feeling at the first of the month!

    Hey,

    I'm trying to find a friend that would be interested in emailing wtih me daily to share meals / keep each other accountable / etc etc.

    I'm also currently starting Ripped in 30- so it would be cool to have a friend on the same "program". I have a really hard time signing into MFP daily, esp since I'm on my phone most of the time. if you're interested hit me up. dana.doozer@yahoo.com

    thanks!

    Hey Ladies, I'm 5'5" 160 and have been for a while.... trying to get to 130

    I'm 5'6 and currently weigh 157. I started a 165, and my ultimate goal is just breaking into 130's.

    I'm 5'2'' and started at 172. I'm 157 now and want to get to 135 - just so I can have a healthy BMI. If and/or when I get there maybe I'll aim for even less, but I'm worried if I do, I will become even more obsessed with food and my weight than I already am, and that just sounds miserable.

    Would love to join the group too. And always looking for more friends!

    wow, I'm 164 right now and my goal is 149... I'm 5'6... would 130 be to low for me? I remember weighing this low when I was 17 years old!!! :/
    I think 143 would be the lowest I'd like to go and look healthy! I'm 29 years old.. :)

    I couldn't find the group. When I clicked on the link, I just went to the (non-specific) groups page. When I searched by the group name, nothing came up. Regardless, thanks for the topic and you definitly found some kindred spirits here!

    Hello! :)
    I'd love to join. I've been battling with weight my whole life and I want a change. In April I weighed around 189 and in the past 2 months I've lost 11 pounds alone. Which I must say it's pretty difficult to go on this journey alone. I'm 5'3'' and at 178. My goal weight is to be under 125 pounds.

    I would like to join as well~! I'm 5'2.5" (the .5 counts :D) and weigh about 160, but I want to be 130-135 again! I've quit a few times after losing a bit of weight but I'm hoping to stick with it this time!

    Hi, I'm new to MFP and just noticed this group. I'm 5'2" and 152 lbs. My goal is 135 lbs. I am a fair weather friend when it comes to weight loss, actually weight maintenance. Once I get going I can usually lose relatively quickly - it's keeping it off that I struggle with. Thanks for starting this group!
