I'm 26 years old and I'm not liking what I'm seeing in the mirror. I'm at the heaviest I've been and sick of it. I have two cruises coming up this year and I don't want delete pictures from them like I did on my last one. I want to lose 40+ lbs before the summer and at least 20 by April (that's my first cruise). I fell off my weight lost when I had a worker co injury, and I'm finally back to were it doesn't hurt. I gained 20 lbs in 8 months from not working out from this.

I've signed up to two 5 K runs at the end of March. I would love to actually run them and not walk them. I also started back up on turbofire, I lost weight and toned up great from that program before.

Looking for a few friends that want to do the same, help motivate me, share recipes and tips, and keep me off that couch.

    I'm also trying to lose about 40 lbs. I've lost 10 since the beginning of the year and it's really motivating me to lose the last 35-40 to get to my goal weight. While I don't live near the beach (Washington state) we do go to California a lot during the summer. And it does get fairly warm here for a couple months, 70's and 80's so it would be nice to not be self conscious in a bathing suit or shorts and a tank top.
