    Hi,
    New to mfp & this group and looking for friends to keep the motivation going.
    Age 44
    Height 5'3
    HW 154lbs
    CW 130 lbs
    GW 119lbs
    I did reach my goal weight 3 years ago but have slipped since and am determined to get back there!
    I will be averaging 1600 cals and doing 30 day shred as well as trying to fit in as much walking as my schedule will allow.
    Thanks for reading :-)

    Age: 35
    Height: 5'5-ish
    Current Weight: 130 lbs (+\- 2 or 3 lbs fluctuations)
    Heaviest weight: 168 lbs after having twins (and here I am looking for a twin???)
    Goal weight: 120-125 lbs (or maintain 130 but decrease fat and add lean muscle)
    BF%: I have no idea but suspect 23-26%?
    GBF%: 15-20%

    My fitness goals are to increase strength/endurance with lean muscle gains and decreasing body fat percentage. Also working toward some fitness bucklet list goals like being able to deadlift 200 lbs, bench press my own body weight, do a strick unassisted wide grip pull up (just achieved a chin-up 3 sets x2 reps), do a pistol squat, perform a human flag (at least 5 seconds), run a 10k and maybe a half marathon.

    Currently doing Stronglifts 5x5 strength training along with some other small isolated muscle group weight lifting. I teach cardio-kickboxing classes at our local wellness center and like to run 5ks. Also enjoy Dancefit/Zumba and Yoga.

    Highest Weight: 155
    Lowest Weight: 118
    Current Weight: 128
    Goal Weight: 120

    For exercise, I follow the Blogilates calendar as closely as I can. I'm a bit of a homebody, so outdoor exercise has always been a struggle for me, especially during summer and winter. Anyway, good luck, everyone! :>

    Hello,

    New member here, joined only yesterday.

    Age: 36 (almost 37)
    Height: 5' 2"
    HW: 125 (after baby #2)
    CW: 122
    Goal W: 116-117

    I have been able to keep a steady weight of 118 for years but something happened with my metabolism in the last few months and I ended up gaining 4 extra pounds that are extremely difficult to shed! Anyway, I decided to do something about it and here I am. I am doing a brisk (4.0) uphill (3.0-7.0) walking on the treadmill 5 times a week for 40 minutes followed by Power Yoga. (Jillian Michael's Yoga Meltdown DVD to be exact.) I am hoping to see some positive changes soon! :smile:

    P.S. I will keep looking for my twin...
    Good luck to all!

    Probably the closest twin:
    Age: 37
    height: 5'3
    HW: 142
    CW: 123
    GW: 120

    I did do Jillian's 30 day shred with little results - shift work makes it difficult. I like to use weights and on a low carb diet.

    Hi!

    I'm 5'6'
    Heaviest Prior to MFP: 175-180 (back in 2006 ... kinda weird for me to admit these days)
    CW: ~134
    Goal : around 130... really just trying to lose the stubborn fat.
    Struggling to lose any type of weight/inches though, maybe lost .5 at the waist and .5 of a pound since May :sad: .. it'd be great to find others to stay motivated...feel free to add me. :)

    DO YOU have a twin yet? I'm 5'6' about 143lb, post Xmas about 150lb probably and 29 years old, I'm not sure what I want my goal weight to be but I really want to tone up further!

    I'm a lazy @ss, so I'm reposting this from another thread (too tired to switch kgs to lbs again). :p

    Age: 26
    Height: 171 cm (5'6")
    HW: 67.5 kg (149 lbs)
    CW: 65 kg (143 lbs)
    GW: 60 kg (132 lbs)

    I hope I can achieve this! I've already done this once, but the weight came back over the past four years. Right now I'm finding MFP to be of great help calorie counting-wise, but I wouldn't mind some additional motivation from other MFPals! ;)

    Hi I'm 29 years old, 5'6' and looking for motivation if you want to add me as a friend :)

    Would love new friends, especially to meet a twin!

    Height: 5'0
    Highest weight: 165
    Current weight: 122
    Goal weight: 110
    Body fat: no idea :/

    I am not sure if that would be a healthy weight but I'd like to pursue a flat tummy and toned body.

    I've seen this in the forums quite a bit and I thought finding a twin here would be a lot easier seeing as we are all ladies here and we are all considering ourselves to be in roughly the same weight category. Plus I don't know about you but having friends with almost identical goals is pretty motivating for me!! I would love to find some girls on here with goals like mine so we can really help and encourage each other on losing that fat/chub/pudge/jiggle in your wiggle/etc. !!!

    I am 5'9
    Heaviest: 162
    Current: 153
    GOAL!!!! : 133

    Current Body Fat: 29-28%
    Dream Body Fat: 18-20%!!!

    I hope this brings our groups a little closer together!! :flowerforyou:

    I think we're pretty close...
    5'9
    heaviest: 160
    current: 155
    goal: not really pounds oriented, just want to be back in a size 4 jeans (ideally - working on a short term goal of a size 6) I could use a fitness friend FOR SURE!

    Feel free to add me if you'd like. I recently graduated school and am trying to figure out how find time to cook healthy meals between a full time and part time job. I also struggle with high fat, low protein. I'm not a vegetarian but I don't eat a lot of meat either.
