in Introduce Yourself
Is anybody else approaching 30 and looking to leave your struggle with your weight in the past? Add me or search and join the group Fit by 30! for support in this transformation :)


Here is a little snipet about me, my profile is open as well :)
Despite my love of fitness and healthy food since I was a child, my coping with stress through binge eating has left me overweight for most of my adult life. I cant even put into words how much I am over this whole weight rollercoaster. There are a lot of things in my life that I can't control but the way I treat my body is not one of them. I will be 30 in about 10 months, I want to end my struggle with my weight and begin my 30s at a healthy weight for my height and gender. As long as I get and stay in that range I will consider this time a success! To do that I need to lose about 50lbs! I have my work cut out for me!

    In 10 months you will do 50lbs easy. I'm 10 months into it today & I've lost 71lbs. Just eat right & exercise hard (well I do anyway). Great for you wanting to do it before you turn 30..... my goal was to do it before I turned 38.

    My goal is to be fit and healthy by the time I'm 30 since its suppose to get harder from there lol. But I'm also giving myself a 3 yr window in which to accomplish this goal :P

    Awesome! My birthday is in September too, I hope we can support each other in reaching our goals.

    Sounds like a great plan to me, at least we have a reasonable amount of time to get there! What date in September are you?

    I'm excited! Even though getting older sucks in alot of ways. 30 is still young and we still have our whole lives ahead of us. I want to shock my friends by how freakin excited I will be on my birthday and I want to be more amazing in every way than I was in my 20s.
