I'm new here and looking for friends who need to lose 20-40 lbs. I'm 5'7", 159 and trying to get down around 130. I like intense exercise but I struggle with injuries. Hoping a little social motivation will help! I eat healthy and love to share recipes. Add me if you like and introduce yourself! :)

    Hiya, I started at 5'6'' 155 and my goal is 135 although I would like to get down to at least 140 and see where to go from there. I've already lost about 6 pounds now so I'm down to 148-149 range. Feel free to add me as well :)

    Howzit! I'm shooting to lose about 30lbs more. I'm 6' and 35 years old. I started running in February and since then, that's been my primary form of cardio/exercise. Take a look at my profile and add me if you like. Either way, good luck to you! :happy:

    I am 5'4'' and still need to lose 20 pounds. I completely dislike cardio at the moment because I am having severe knee pain when running, stairmaster, zumba, etc. :( I am just doing weights and will stick to them- I want to see how my body will react and check if I am losing any inches within this month and in october/november, then continue this schedule (I am doing stronglifts 5x5) and just limit cardio.
