Hello, I was away for awhile and now restarting again, looking for motivating friends in similar situations as i am in. Im 40 years old, married and a mommy to 2 boys. Im 5'2" and looking to lose about 25 lbs. Im doing the "bikini body mommy 90 day challenge" for my workouts and I plan to log everyday. Thanks for your support

    Hello! So I'm 29 and have two young children. My youngest is just two months old. Pregnancy eating was a blast! Now though, I am aiming towards loosing a minimum of 50 pounds. This would not only improve my health and self-image, but also put me a huge step closer to joining the US military to allow my husband and myself to build a better foundation for our family. Would be great to meet and interact with others whom can relate to the ups and downs of weight loss!

    Hi! I'm back as of yesterday ???? I plan on starting stronglifts tonight after work and logging daily! Definitely am looking for some accountability partners ! I'm 35 and have 4 kids (mine, his & ours). The last 6 months or so have been terribly inconsistent :/ prior to that I had completed 30 day shred, ripped in 30, 6 months of crossfit and misc other things :) now everything has turned to mush again ... Blah! I like to have friends who post on the news feed and comment. I like to motivate and cheer on! Feel free to add me!!

    Hello everyone! I am back as of last week. I am 25 and between my fiance' and I we have 3 kids. I need to lose between 40-50lbs and so far I've just been toying with the paleo diet and trying to get more exercise. Would love some motivated friends who are active on the site. I log every day and post and comment on the feeds. Feel free to add me!

    I hear you, I was gone for 1 year, put the 30lbs I had lost back on. I have been logging for 3 weeks and I too get discouraged or upset went I cheat. fI tend to be hard on myself lol! I am a mom of 2 boys, 37 years old and I work full-time shift work! Don't give up!
