in Introduce Yourself
Hi All,

I'm new to MFP and am really quite excited about it. I have just turned 21 and want to get myself fit and healthy so I can maintain it for the rest of my life haha. I have a minimum of 56lbs to lose but wouldn't mind losing a little bit more! My goal is to lose a min of 2lbs a week! I want to make decent headway before I head off to Rome in April with my boyfriend! Would be great to have some friends on here to help motivate eachother! :)

All Tips, Tricks and Recipes are welcome!

Rebecca

    Hi Robyn!

    I am going to stick with the 2lbs for a little while, if I begin to struggle then I shall lower it :-) But want to make a big loss to begin with!

    I have added you! :smile:

    Hey Rebecca,

    My name is Sasha and I recently joined MFP as well and I'm looking for a partner to help keep me motivated as I plan to motivate whoever comes my way as well. I'm 23 years old and need to lose 50 pounds. I was so happy when i saw your post caz we have the same goal and plan. Hit me up if your interested and lets shed these pounds together :)

    Tip: weight loss will never be consistent
    Trick: dont say youre motivated to lose weight, that sounds negative - say youre in training, or building a Roman body or something
    Recipe: Set yourself up to win, setting yourself up to do something every day or 5 times a week is a recipe for disaster.

    Hi Rebecca,

    I just join MFP yesterday and wanting to lose 30lbs, I am hoping to lose 1 to 11/2 lbs a week. I am looking to feel better about myself for my 41 birthday get together I have coming up :) . Best of luck to all of us!
