    Hey, we are around the same weight and height! I'm looking to get to my goal weight of 125ish in a few months although it'll probably be after my 21st (which is coming up in late Nov =C) But I'd be happy to be a motivational friend! :)

    Good girl. :) I'm 5'1" and I started at over 170lbs, I lost 60 lbs at age 50, I've been maintaining for over a year, almost 52 now.

    Anyone can do it. Great that you are working out. Workout (especially weights) to make your lean body mass pretty for when the fat is gone. You will lose fat faster than you will build lean body mass (females), you can't out exercise too many calories. Best of luck to you!

    Hi my name is joy I have been logging on here for quite a while now and I would say this site has been life changing for me. It has totally changed my approach to food and working out. I have always tried to keep active and in the past have used gyms. When I joined MFP I had just started running but with the encouragement of my friends on here the running just went from strength to strength. I also found lifting heavy I had done some lifting before but quite light weights. I am currently following jamie Eason,s live fit programme and in 4 weeks can see a major change in my body. I have lost 24lb with MFP and 6 lb on my own before joining. I am thrilled as I am 41 and have 3 kids. feel free to add me. I log every day and workout 6 days a week.

    Its also worked so well for me I try to log everything i eat and drink but i dont log all my exercise. I am 25lb down since August 28th. I have found this to much better than any slimming clubs etc. If you keep at it and motivated you will succeed.

    Hey. Im 18 and i love fitness. Im 5'8'' and currently 118. I'd like to gain some more muscle and i do insanity everyday. I stopped for awhile but I'm starting it again today. I also run 4 miles on the beach! I slowed down on the running for awhile, but I plan on running again in about a week after I focus more on insanity. Anyone wanting to befriend me or who is motivated like me, don't be afraid to message me! :)
