20 lbs to lose - Looking for friends!

im trying to start a group to try to motivate each other
my goal right now is to lose 20 pounds by new years.

i am 30 year old mom of a 3 year old. i work nights as a nurse.

feel free to add me as a friend
and join the group: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/16313-20-by-new-years

I'm in the same boat! I have two beautiful boys, I'm a teacher, and I've struggled off an on for several years. I'll be happy to add you.

If you're Looking for support feel free to add me, however remember no one can motivate you like you can. You have to want it and be dedicated to achieve your goals. Having friends to throw in a good job now and then does feel good though

Same here! 33 years old. I keep coming on and off MFP because I also use runkeeper. But I really need to log my food so I'm going to make an effort to be more active in here. Feel free to add me, I need friends to help me stay on track.

I have about 20 pounds to lose to get to my goal, at the end I will have lost 108 pounds total! Anyone feel free to add me :flowerforyou:

Hi guys

I have trouve writing everything in my diary because I only have a couple of friends. I need to build a real community here if I want to stay accountable... Please, feel free to add me! I'm 35 years old, mum of 1 adorable boy, teacher, TV show addict and cat lover.

I'm a "3 score + 6" years young mum and grandmum who loves to knit, crochet, ride a bike, dance and play pickleball. I, too, want to lose 20 pounds by "whenever they disappear." I know what to do, but, like you, might fare better if I had a group who were on the same path as I am. So, I will join your group. I'm not on any real diet, just eating smaller portions and increasing the amount of vegetables and fruits I eat.

I eat breakfast every day and have been preparing "muggins" for breakfast every other day. I have been using a recipe, which I alter to my taste from NanaClare's website. http://www.nanaclareskitchen.com/2012/02/24/cinnamon-muffin-in-a-mug/ It is really good, but had too much cinnamon for my taste, so I don't add as much cinnamon. Also, I omit the flour, since I ground the flaxseeds and steel cut oats to make flour. I use almond milk or greek yogurt and add a dash of almond extract, the kind without corn syrup. I don't add sweetener, but use applesauce and/or a mashed banana instead. I use Nana Clare's recipe as a guide, but I play with it until I get it to taste the way I want. Some days, I put it in the oven while I shower, and by the time I finish, it is ready to eat. If you cook it in the microwave, it is faster (about 90seconds - 2 minutes) and "springier." Tastes good either way to me.

Looking forward to a group of "20 downers!"
