Anyone else turning the big 3-0 in 2014?!

Hi, I'm turning 30 on September 9th and I want to be fit on my big day! I want 30 to be something to celebrate, not be afraid of.
I've always been a bit overweight and I have never been athletic but I really enjoy being active when I make it a priority and make time for it. I'm going to need some encouragement because I'm the type that has one bad day that turns into 4 bad months and I end up gaining back everything I've lost. Feel free to add me as a friend or lets start a group and make 30 our best year yet!

    I will friend you! I am turning 30 on November 28th and am definitely looking to celebrate. I'm hoping to have a baby this year, too, so if I can get my body into a prime place for that and then be able to snap back in a few months (even by the beginning of 2015) we are going either on a cruise or to Vegas to celebrate! I am determined to wear clothes I want then!!

    Hi! I'm another 30 in 2014 on Sept 19th. I have been working hard over the last 3 years to get down to my goal weight. Last March I was 2 lbs away from my goal, but of course I slid right off the wagon. Since March I've gained 10 lbs. So I'm back at it. My goal for 30 is to be at my goal weight of 125. I know I can do it, I just have to stay disciplined. Let's start 30 off right people! :)

    ny ideas for the name of the group? "30 is the new fit" "fabulous by 30" "Celebrate 30" Give me your ideas!

    Also, should the group be public or private? Suggestions please :smile:

    I will be turning 30 on Nov 22! A few of my friends are hitting the big 3-0 this year as well, and we have planned a houseboating trip in August to celebrate. I'd like to be comfortable in a bathing suit by then! No specific weight loss goal at this point, I'm working out and working on my eating and I'm going to play it by ear for the next little bit.

    I'll be hitting 30 in July (eep!). My goal is just to lose those last couple of pounds and then maintain. 30 is looking like a good year considering I haven't been my current weight since middle school. :drinker:
