Hey all! I'm in my mid 20s trying to lose roughly 30lbs - I mainly want to feel and look healthier in order to get rid of some recently occurring health problems. I live in FL and would love to have some motivating friends, near or far, so we could support each other through this!

    I am in the exact same boat as you! My name is Lauren and I also live in FL. Used to live in South Florida but now I live in Gainesville. I am trying to lose around 30 pounds too. High blood pressure runs in my family and I am trying to prevent that occurring in me.

    I'm in the same boat--feel free to request me!

    My plan is running, dance, and the machines at the gym. Strength training at home bc right now I'm way too intimidated to lift at the gym.

    I'm a stay at home mom of 2, had baby in Sept 2011, still losing 2 more pounds of baby weight, then 5 more just to be a hot mama again :)

    for fitness, i go to the gym: M, W, F: strength/power scupt class, every other day cardio/stretching, plus Zumba M/W. if i'm feeling extra motivated I'll do 2 workouts a day.

    for diet, I am trying to follow the P90X fat shredder plan: 50% protein, 30% carb, 20% fat, and try to eat about 1500 calories/day.

    i am looking for friends too! i have lost 8 pounds in the past 2 months, 7 to go, over half way done. all the friends i had before aren't active on MFP anymore so i feel like i'm reporting to no one :( add me: rekoniva

    Hey... so I am 25 soon, and after reading the title to this 'Mid 20's' I'm now freaking out that I'm in my mid 20's! Haha!

    Anywhooooo... I'm 25 soon, and trying to lose about 50lbs, to drop me down to 140lbs :)

    I'm from Greenwich, London, UK. The Olympics have been a huge motivation in my exercising etc! As I walk past it almost every day!

    I'm aiming to swim for 120 minutes per week. Either in one go, or split over 2/3 sessions.
    As well as doing sit ups to sort out the little bit of fat on my stomach, and step ups / walking / jogging to sort out my thighs.

    I love chocolate and am finding that the hardest thing to give up!

    Good Luck!
