I am 30 years old and need to lose about 40more lbs. I lost 25lbs the begining of this year and have gained 7 back. I am having a really hard time staying motivated. I am hoping that by maybe making some friends that have the same goals as I do it will help motivate me. Anyone interested let me know

    Hi, I am 45 and want to lose 35 pounds. I weigh in tomorrow so I will post what I have lost in last three weeks. I am doing the LA Marathon on March 13 (did it one time before about 12 years ago). I do bootcamp 3 days a week, training with some girls for the marathon, and starting to get into yoga. I recently stopped eating sugar and white flour and I feel so much better. I have been a totally undisciplined and maybe even a little depressd for about five years (stress of being a mom, work, economy, etc). Finally decided (with the encouragment of work out partners) to just do it! :)

    That's so great! Good for you. Whether it is 20, 30 or 100, 200 pounds - it helps so much to have people supporting and encouraging us on the journey. :)
