    Hello!! I'm Bobbi, 24 from Ireland. I am currently at my heaviest weight of 170 and I'm not happy with myself! I want to lose weight and get a hot bikini body while I'm young enough to enjoy it!

    I'm going to lose weight by eating healthy and getting fit but I have the tendency to get lazy in the evenings after work so I need some support to kick my *kitten* (or guilt me by their success) to get off the couch and go do some sort of activity! :)

    Hey Yall! My name is Ashley and I'm 23. This coming April will be 2 years that my husband and I have been married ( I know I need to update my pic). We are working on becoming healthy so we can fully enjoy life and if we have kids be able to rise them with a healthy lifestyle. I weighted my heaviest on my wedding and seeing the pics of it and all the celebration things that went along with it made me so upset that I let myself go. But I am working on getting back down to the 100lbs I was 4 1/2 years ago when my husband and I met. He is in a biggest loser competion at work and hopes to lose 50-60 lbs. Feel free to add me or just message me anything else you want to know!

    Hi all, my name is Alex and I am from beautiful Sacramento, CA. I am 24 and have been on this site for a while. I am getting married in October 2013. I want to get fit for my wedding, but also I want to live a healthy lifestyle for my family. I currently do not have kids, but I want them some day. I want to get down to about 150 lbs. I currently weigh 220 lbs and have already lost 35 lbs in the last year (my tracker says different because I added it on in early 2012). Feel free to add me and i look forward to getting fit in my 20's with you all!

    Hey I'm Mani, I'm twenty-two.
    I've sort of always had a weight problem, it's just that never really cared for whatever reason. I blame it on immaturity, when you're young you kinda want things handed to you, I was also a very stubborn kid who pretty much ate whatever I wanted without actually trying to be myself. Which is a person who does like to exercise and I'm fine with eating healthy. I've always had the tools put in front of me but I never wanted to embrace any of it for childish reasons I guess. I when I realized I was wayyyy over my bmi I decided it was time to get in shape. Unfortunately around the same time I said I wanted to lose weight people kind of started bullying me about my weight so I became kind of nuerotic about it. I was dissapointed because I wasn't losing fast enough but now I realize I should've been greatful for where I was. I got depressed because of my weight and other things and I stopped caring and I gained all the weight back and thensome. Now I want to get back on track because there are a lot of things that I want to do but my weight always holds me back. I'm trying to lose like fifty pounds, seventy at most. That'd be great. I think I'm on the right track. So let's get this party started :bigsmile:

    hey, I'm Tera, I'm 34, but look 25 ha ha. I asked to join because even though I am 34, I still feel young at heart, so I asked Erin if I could join. I live in Buffalo with my bf and our 4 kids ages 3,5,6 and 12. I gained weight over the years. The lowest I have ever been was about 175. That is my real goal to be at that weight again, I dont wannna be super thin, Like most of you I wanna be fit n be able to chase my kids around, esp my evil 3yr old. Yes hes quite the kid, I need all the energy I can get to be able to keep up with him. I was on here all the time, but seeing how its colder out, bf is home more, he is a complete computer hog n makes it hard for me to log in esp on the weekends. But anyway, I am recovering from the holidays though I did gain back some, 7 pounds n gonna work out to lose it. My motto is earn what you eat, so I try to exercise a lot, I believe its the key, well for me anyways. Plus I seem to think more clear with exercise, its like my brain is more focused more clear, more energized to take on the world. I am more than happy too share and to get more ideas on eating. SO if you ever want to be a friend go ahead n request me also, I am not one of those people if you leave for a week I will unfriend you. NO its wrong to do that. **** happens in life whether you are having a rough time or hey maybe your net got shut off. I am here regardless, because thats what a true supporter does.
