5'2 female with 40lbs to lose

Hi all! I'm trying to get on track I'm currently 161 lbs and 5'2. It's been a struggle to stay motivated. If anyone has any tips or would like to add me feel free. I am currently trying to lose the first 20 lbs by May 15th? is that realistic? and then the final 20 lbs by August 17th. It would be nice to find a fitness buddy. :smile:

  • May 15th is possible, Aim for a 2lb a week loss and if you don't reach it one week or another it won't hurt your goal. If you want someone to help support you towards this feel free to add me :)

    I think that is a realistic goal. Feel free to add me, I am looking to lose about 60lbs
  • All goals are realistic if you are willing to put in the necessary work to achieve them. I'm 172 pounds and 5'4, I to am trying to lose 30-40 pounds by the summer late May early June. I started my diet yesterday and I feel pretty good. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    Hi! I'm 5'2" and looking to lose 30 pounds. I'm small/medium framed, so my goal weight is 120 lbs.

    I just started a week ago, so I still have a long way to go.

    and a size 10/12 on my bottom

    in 12 weeks.

    Hey everyone,

    I'm getting married this November and I'm planning on losing 40lbs to get down to around 130lbs by then. I saw you all had similar goals, so I wanted to see how everyone was doing. Also please few free to add me, I'd love to have some more fitness pals to hold me accountable. :)
