edited February 6 in Introduce Yourself
I'm 20 years old, live in Indiana, and have to lose at least 30 lbs. I want to be somewhat skinny for my 21st birthday in October. I weighin at 195 right now, and I'm 5'7. This brings my BMI right around 30. My goal is to be at least 160 at my 21st birthday, because I have been there before, and I actually feel great at that weight. However, if I could get to 145 by then, I would be estatic! Anyone interested in being motivation buddies? I currently am trying T25 and shakeology, though I haven't been very dedicated to it as of yet. I also own Insanity!

Let me know what you think!

    Hey girls,
    I am 26 y/o from NJ. I am currently 159, and am looking to get in to 120's range. I would love the motivation of having friends on here. I am currently just calorie counting. I have done jenny craig in the past and was successful on it. I got down to 119 lbs, but years later I am back up to my highest weight ever. I am trying to do a jenny craig style type diet. I am eating three small meals under 260 calories, two fruits, one dairy, and one snack. I am also taking a multi vitamin. <3 Jill

    I'm assuming it is Oct.2014. This one is about over. Would not be a wise decision. I'm old but wish you youngsters well.:wink:

    I have almost the same stats and goals as you--5'7", currently 198. My right now goal is 160, but I hope to revise that lower when I get there. I have been battling weight for a long time, and have lost 32 lbs total. For workouts, I do elliptical, horseback riding, and yoga, although I am looking to add some weightlifting. I try to log on daily.
