Hi!

I'm 31 (today's my birthday). And I need to do something about this weight thing! I'm 5'6" and 195 pounds.
Looking for someone to lose weight with. I have one 3 year old daughter and would like to have another child. But before doing so, I want to lose weight first.
So whoever wants to start/continue (and FINISH) this battle with me, let me know. We can motivate each other and celebrate the successes. I'm sure there will be some bumps in the road. But I'm motivated!

Olga

    Happy Birthday, Olga! I'm always open to more friends if you'd like to add me. I log daily and supply my friends with as much encouragement as I can.

    Hope you are planning on having some cake!! :)

    Hi! I'd love to be your partner in crime. I too have an almost 3 year old and would love to start trying for a second as soon as I drop some of this weight. Feel free to add me.

    Happy Birthday, Olga! I hope you have a wonderful day and that all your birthday wishes come true!

    I'd love to be added to your friends too -- and to invite all of you to add me as a friend.
    I'm trying to learn how to be a part of the community, and I'd love to be a source of encouragement.

    I joined 2 weeks ago, and have a LONG way to go! But I overworked my knees in the first week,
    so I'm letting them heal before I start back into exercise on Thursday.

    Good luck everyone!

    Hi, I want to lose weight for my health first and vanity second. I am 44 and the will power I had in my 30s doesn't seem to be there now for this journey, however, I feel I know more about myself and my body and I 100% know that this has to be a life style change so I joined Weight Watchers and this site hoping that one or both will stick. I know I need support from others who are going through the same journey and looking to build a list of like minded ladies in my age range who are tackling the same goals. My goal is to lose 10 pounds by second week of August and I just lost 2! I also want to slowly work fitness in so aiming for 3 workouts at the gym or riding my bike. I can't wait to hear from you! :) Lisa

    I'm glad I'm not the only crazy person on here who is trying to lose some weight before gaining more on a 2nd pregnancy.

    Not Much yet! I like to walk and use the app "Strive" that feeds into MFP. It's pretty cool.

    Hi, Olga!

    Happy birthday!

    I'd love a new partner in crime. Please feel free to add me! :smile:

    I've been on MFP since 10/2012, but (unfortunately) have only recently gotten serious. I'd love to help motivate each other.
