    I don't discriminate again size age or gender ^_^
    maybe you can challenge me as they say the older you are the harder it is lol
    They also say "as you think it, so it shall be". You are only as old as you think you are. :wink:

    That was a lot of replies. I think I got everyone added now if I missed you just let me know and I'll add you. (: I was busy with college papers all day today so I almost forgot to get on. I made sure to not go over on calories though. Thanks for the adds so far everyone! (:

    I'm almost 26 and about 210, so 50 pounds by summer is in totally my ballpark (i'm not being too specific about numbers because a. I think in metric and all these pounds are confusing ;-), and b. I've historically gotten really hung up on numbers, lost a lot of weight very fast, and then gained it all back, so i'm trying to take it a bit easier and make real lifestyle changes this time around.) I've added everyone, I think, and if i've missed you feel free to add me! Please!

    If you're consistent and really stick to it you can! I'm 33, 5'5". I started at 254 on Aug 16th last year and now I'm at 189 even after lots of holiday celebrations and a 10 day Disney vacation. I started at 1200-1300 calories a day for 3 months, walked at least an extra hour everyday (outside of my normal steps from work/daily tasks) and walked up 40-50 flights of stairs a day. Upped my calories to 1600-1700 after three months, kept doing the walking/stairs, but added the couch to 5k program 2-3 days a week. I'm down 65lbs in a little over 5 months and have gone from a size 20W jean to Size 14. Whatever you decide to do it has to be something you can stick with, period.

    I'm looking to lose 50-60 total and hoping for at least 25 by July based on my body's tendency to hit walls and say, "Nope." lol. I'll get there eventually.

    Best of luck to you. Nothing worth it is ever easy, so we're in for a hell of a ride.

    Would love to have a few more friends myself. 27 years old, 5'2'' 175lbs looking to ultimately drop to about 130-120. I could use some people for accountability and motivation as I am historically a person who loses my gumption in this fight over the past few years since having kids, it is very easy to make excuses.

    I am 24 and just would love to lose 30 pounds by June, when I leave for my internship in Guatemala. I'm going to be doing a lot of walking there, so I need to be fit too
