Weight Lifting Ladies? Supportive Buddies?

Helloooo!

I've been on MFP for well over a year and a half and I just love it!

Unfortunately, friends come and go on here (life happens) so I'm looking to make some new, supportive friends! I'm sassy, I curse, I'm not a fan of starving yourself and love weight lifting!

I've been lifting heavy for almost 8 months and I'm hooked. I love the way my body is looking and I love how it makes me feel. I have a few great ladies in my friend's list that lift and am constantly inspired by their amazing transformations.

I'm still a little wobbly with food, but it's getting there. I'll still have ice cream every now and then or a beer or two, everything in moderation. I'm teaching myself sustainable eating habits and reasonable portion sizes. Being an emotional eater/binger, this is a challenge. One that I feel like I'm finally getting control over.

Thanks for reading and wish you all great success!

    I am learning to lift right now with a personal trainer. When I am done with the trainer I plan to try either starting strength or NROLFW.

    Add me.
  • Add me, I lift 4x a week and I am a mom of 1 crazy, high needs toddler. Right now I am doing the LIVEFIT program by Jamie Eason and I LOVE IT! I am addicted to weights.

    I started NROLFW but now i'm kinda doing my own thing to accommodate my schedule. I'll probably end up getting back into a program soon, add me! I'm 5'3" 150 looking to be somewhere around 120.. Just fit, really!

    While you are at it, you can feel free to add me too! I just started the Stronglifts program and while I'm making sure I have the form down right now I'm excited to add some weight and see how much further it takes me!
