I am a 26 year old woman and I'd love some similar friends

I was wondering if there are some folks on here who are kind of like me. I want to be healthy and to be active. I am 5ft 7in tall and have a goal weight of 160 initially... and maybe down to 150 if I feel like I need to when I get there. I started at 222lbs and have lost 14lbs so far!

I plan on getting a sleeve as a reward to staying at my goal weight for a year. I love punk rock and reading. I'm also pretty blunt and to the point (though I hope not in a bad way ;)). Anyone relate?

    I'm 26 too! Started at 198, down to 183 so far! My goal is 155-160 range (I'm 5'9"). I've lost (and gained) the same 15-20lbs about 100 times now, so I'm hoping that this time my healthy lifestyle will stick!

    Good luck with your weight loss!!:drinker:

    Hey!
    I'm 25, 5ft 1 and started this 4 days ago.
    Start weight 212lbs, goal weight 126lbs.

    I love punk rock - big ska fan thanks to my Dad.
    Absolute nerd when it comes to reading and movies.

    I'm the kind of person who gets disheartened really quickly if I don't see results so I'll need some extreme tough love!
    But I find it really easy to encourage others!

    Feel free to add me!

    i'm 23, tattoo is going to be my reward for hitting my goal weight. I started at 187, down to 153 since joining MFP and beginning an exercise program in October. I love to read as well - add me if you'd like! my goal is to get out of double digit dress and pant sizes (goal weight overall is 130 currently though)
  • Hi, I'm 31 and my starting weight was 234.4. I've been at it for 2 weeks and I've lost 4 pounds. I love to read and I like tattoos. I have a sleeve on my left arm and a few others. I'm going to send you a friend request. :)
