in Introduce Yourself
Hi I'm 36 years old, I'm a sahm, I weigh 163, I'm kind of short, I'm only 5' 3" Right now my goal is 140. I really need some help to get this weight off. Some tips or any advice you can give I would appreciate it very much. I do walk a lot my biggest problem is with overeating. I would love to get this weight off before my birthday Oct 22. I've got 5 months to do it in. I would love to make some friends here who can give me some support and a good kick every now and then would be very helpful. I'll give support as well. Thanks all, Pinky

    Hi everyone. I'm Pasha, 5'3', 141 pounds since I last weighed myself, on my way to a good 121 pounds hopefully. I really need support because I get really lazy if I lose even one day of exercise. Also, my college classes are literally sucking my soul away from me which is why I find comfort in food. But now, I've seen the light. I'm trying to lose weight to get back the figure I had when I used to play on my school's sports team. Anyone can add me as well, I'm very bossy so I'm sure I'll be able to help others get healthier as others will help me. :smile:

    HI
    I started a few months ago. When I started I had a total of 125 lbs to lose,but I broke it down into two goals to make it seem less daunting lol. So I am working on goal #1 lose 80 lbs...down 22 so far. Some days it is so hard, so I am always up for new friends so we can help each other.

    Hi!!
    I started almost a month ago. I have a goal of loosing 90 lbs, so far it's going pretty slow. I'm up for new friends to help motivate and keep each other accountable. I know I could use it. :)

    Thats good you are trying to make the right choice and get healthy. What type of workout program are you doing? My wife and I just started our second round of Insanity and we love it. I also host a motivational group on facebook as well. You can look me up at facebook.com/bradly.pippin for a friend request and I can add you to the group if you like. You can also check out insanity and what its all about by going to beachbodycoach.com/bpippin

    Hiya Pinky! I have many of the same problems - I am 5'1" (on a good day!) and on the roundish side, LOL. I always joke that my ancestors were Hobbits. I enjoy exercise, it's finding TIME to do it, esp with kids. I have an 8 yr old daughter and a 5 yr old son and work full-time as well so time is limited. Which also means that it's SUPER hard to always follow a healthy eating plan since we are on the go so much.
    Feel free to add me as a Friend - I'd love to help keep you motivated because doing so helps me too!
