Open Diaries, 20's, West coast??

Hello everyone!!

I am looking for new friends with OPEN diaries (because I'm super nosey and just wanna see what everyone eats to get more ideas for meals/snacks/etc.) who are around my age (20's and 30's) who live on the West coast. I've found that while I love my international and East coast friends, they all seem to be ending their day just when mine is beginning.

Please feel free to add me or respond here!

I am a 23 year old with a sedentary office job who is looking to make healthier choices and be fit! My goal is to lose 20-30 pounds by my wedding in May 2014 :smile:

    Well we're already friends, but new friends, so I felt like I should respond :)

    I'm in my 20's, have an open diary (for friends), and live on the West Coast...kind of...I can't ever figure out what Colorado is considered - it's not mid-west, and it's not west -coast, so what the heck is it?? But either way, I'm only an hour ahead of the West Coast, so it's pretty close.

    I'm 5'-6", started at 170 lbs, am now close to 125 (my goal weight - I did hit it for a month but went on vacation and now I'm up a few lbs), but I'm primarily working on maintaining and keeping it off now!

    Oh and edit to add that I also have a sedentary desk job as well!

    Hi I'm 28 female I live in the bay area. I have a 2 year old and 3 year old. I also have an office job. 5'5 163 10 days ago, now 157. Trying to get to 130 something. I think I have an open diary which since I've joined 2 days ago is helping me track what I'm eating. It seems like a lot of food but it's really not.

    Well I am in the Midwest, but feel free to check out my diary if you please. I wish more people would leave their diaries open too! I don't want to judge, I just want to see how I compare to other people.

    EXACTLY! I don't want to judge, I'm just more curious than anything and honestly want ideas for healthy snacks/meals. Also, we gotta own up to what we're eating!

    24 year old mom in Tucson. This is my second attempt, but the prior try I was logging every day, consistently. Looking to lose 60 or more. I'm still on the fence for a goal date though.

    I live near Seattle, will be 30 in August. I just restarted this week, joined last Fall but didn't keep updated. I also work at home, so learning to balance food and exercise. I have about 20 pounds to lose. Add me if you'd like, I'd love to have a friend :)
