New & Looking for Friends with similar goals

Hi! I'm 5'9, 170 lbs, starting again on my fitness journey!

The goal is to set my mind/focus on overall feeling stronger!
If I can focus on that, then the fat loss will seem like an added bonus!

I've lost 70 lbs so far! Will post pics on my profile tomorrow!

    Hello! I think I'm starting off at pretty much the same weight you were before you started losing weight. So to hear you've lost 70lb is incredibly encouraging!! Massive congrats for that! Would be intrigued to see your before and after pictures! :)

    ...I'm 5"11 and currently 230lbs.

    I think the hardest part when you're first starting out is getting into the right mind set! Hopefully I am...because I'd love to see myself get results as good as yours! x

    You are where I want to be! I am 5'9" and my goal weight is 170. Your starting weight was 238, and mine was 257 last year on May 5th. I have been around 212 - 214 ever since the beginning of the year, and I can't seem to budge. Good luck to you in your last 20 pounds. You have made awesome progress. Do you have a before and after photo to share so I can dream? Take care!

    I am 5"10. Currently 145 lbs. I lost 35 lbs. My most weight lost was 43 lbs making me 138 lbs but I put back on a little of it. I have been trying to maintain which is difficult being a busy mom and full time student. I am always looking for more friends and a support system. You can add me if you like. I have tracked my food/exercise now for over 800 days. I think that losing weight is really a life time commitment.
