Hi
My name is Angel I am 23 and have lost about 16 lbs so far but still have another 134 to go before I reach my first goal which I hope to do by July. I am also training for a 5k obstacle course in may. I would love to find some friends on here to not only motivate me but keep me accountable.

    Hi Angel!! My name is Sarah and I'm 23 as well!! I've lost 25 lbs since August but have 135lbs to go as well. I am hoping to reach goal by 12/31/14. It's refreshing to find someone in a very similar boat!! I did a Warrior Dash 5K this past June when I was at my heaviest (295lbs) and it was miserable!!!!!!!! My boyfriend, family and friends love these obstacle races and have all signed up for 2014 again. I haven't because I don't want the same experience, but maybe my next spring I will feel better about it. I'll send a friend invite!

    Hello! I'm Kristen, and I'm also new. I just got back to trying to be healthy. I've had enough of binging and starving and dieting and the cyclical craziness!

    I'm 24, and I have lost 16 pounds so far, but I'm looking to lose at least 80 pounds more. No interest in 5k's, but I'd love to have some more friends on here to keep me motivated!

    Hi! I am Kayla I have lost 26 of the 148 pounds I hope to loose since July. I have been doing C25K and I hope to complete a 5K color run in December. I would love some friends/support. I haven't been actively trying to find friends until today!

    Hi I'm Paige. I have forty seven pounds to lose before my goal. I am new here and looking for some friends to help keep me accountable as well. No crazy mud races for this one I just need someone who is willing to cheer and push me. And I will also return the favor!

    Hey everyone! My name is Ashley and I am trying to get back on track...

    Last year I lost about 20 pounds and kept it off until summer came around, then I started my new job and I've not been putting myself and my health first. I would really like to find a few friends to really hold me accountable. I've gained back almost all of the weight that I lost and I would love some help getting back on track and motivated again! My end goal is to lose 50 pounds and I'd love all the help I can get!

    I would gladly check in on you as well!

    Hi everyone! My name is Ashley and I'm 26. I have struggled with my weight for the last several years and am done making excuses. I want to lose 75-100 lbs as my end goal. I started out at my heaviest at 265 lbs. I am currently at 247 lbs. I would love to find some friends who are going through the same thing so that we could support each other. It can be very discouraging trying to do this on your own. Ideally, I would love to find someone in my area that I could actually work out with, since that's the part I have the most trouble with. Anyone from the Lehigh Valley, PA area?

    Im 23 also. Sw 215 currently at 202 and aiming for 130 maybe, it's hard to tell when you're 4'11" ???? sent you a request! My diary is open and I'm a daily logger and active commenter if anyone else is looking for a friend.

    Hi there. I'm 29 and looking to lose 45-50 lbs. I log every day and workout about 5-6 times a week. Currently do strength/cardio at the gym (3-4 times a week), Jillian Michaels Ripped in 30 (2-3 days) and volleyball once a week. I actually love sports and working out. Usually it's my food choices and portion sizes that kill me. But I'm back on track and feeling great. Looking to add some friends on here as well. Love the community feel of MFP.

    Hi guys! I'm 25 and I currently have about 23lbs. to go to be at 200lbs It has been a constant battle for me. I have gotten to 200lbs. before and then gained 28 right back. It's like a yo yo effect. I am new to the groups and MFP and I would love to have some friends to help keep me motivated. I do great in the beginning, but then always get discouraged after losing a few pounds. Hopefully we can help motivate each other and help each other to reach our goals!!
