    I'm 25. I've been overweight my entire life, seriously, like since I was 4 years old. I'm a mom, and that's wreaked havoc on my poor body, lol.

    I started at 274, I'm at 251. My goal is 175. I'm 5'6". I do Wii games and exercise videos. I don't have a gym membership, so everything I do is at home.

    Seems like a cool idea. I'm 30 years old, 5'10 with a starting weight of 246 back in October. I'm down to 227 now and trying to get under 200 pounds, and to be able to do a sprint triathlon by the end of summer.

    Hello! I am a 5' 1" 23 year old female (no kids) at 140 lbs. My goal is to reach 116 lbs due to my small frame. I am a vegetarian, I work out 6-7 days a week (cardio and HIIT mostly), and I drink water pretty much exclusively (might have a coffee in the mornings). I'd love to add some people who are around my same size with the same goals.

    29 here, mama to a little, work from home, 5'2" - weigh 189, looking to get down to at least 150 and definitely tone up + try to modify overall eating habits for a healthier life going forward. Ex soda-holic, haven't touched a drop of the "real" stuff in weeks, trying to stay clear of the diet but having one here and there. Not a veggie but love eating veggie options. Trying to exercise daily or every other at the least - using Daily Burn currently.

    I was running but had an achilles injury in August that forced me to stop. I started doing Jazzercise and love it. I do 6-7 classes a week and sometimes a day on the stationary bike. Currently in Physical Therapy for the achilles injury and the hip/glute injury that was caused by the achilles tear :( Hoping to be pain free and possibly running this spring again.

    Hi MZLinks (and everyone else)! Sounds like we might be weight loss twins:

    Height: 5'7 or 5'8
    SW: 284
    CW: 190ish
    GW: about 180 and then will focus more on building muscle/losing fat rather than the number on the scale.

    Add me if you'd like and good luck on your journey!

    How fun! I've messaged a few people so far. Here's info about me:

    Age: 29 years
    Height: between 5'7" & 5'8"
    SW: 225
    CW: 190
    GW: 150ish

    I'm in the middle of doing Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred, and after that I will be back to a greater variety of workouts. I especially love weight-lifting and long walks in the park (ha!).

    Feel free to add me if we are similar, or heck, even if we're not. I love meeting new folks on here.

    Cool idea. I hope I can find my twin here! I was originally around 160 five years ago and then did Weight Watchers and lost 30 pounds. I have kept it all off but still want to lose a bit more -- tone up the thighs and belly, etc. I work out nearly every day, but I just need to bring my eating into check. I track on MFT religiously for breakfast and lunch, but then all hell breaks loose with dinner. If I can just get some dinner will power, I think I'll be golden. Which brings me to my twin stats:
    Age: 33
    Height: 5'2"

    I LOVE this post!! I'm so excited to find people similar to me!! I've found a few "fraternal" twins, but not quite "identical" yet!

    31 years old
    5'9"
    Starting weight March 2013: 215 lbs
    Current weight Feb 2014: 175 lbs
    Goal weight: somewhere in the 150s

    I hit the gym 5-6 times a week; I do weight training/cardio/Zumba/BootCamp/whatever!! Low carbs, high protein, 5 or 6 small meals a day, trying to eat clean and cut out the junk but it's tough! Peanut Butter M&Ms are my downfall in life.
    ADD ME!! Always looking for new friends!

    Your the closest twin i could find :)
    I am 34 yrs old
    5'9"
    starting weight April 2009 - 209
    current weight February 2014 - 168
    Goal weight: somewhere in the 150's
    I am at the gym 5-6 nights a week doing weights, cardio, barre and toning.
    I am a junk food junkie! I don't like veggies and can tolerate fruits. I love protein and have a lot in my diet. I don't do the small meals, instead i just have 3 meals a day. I struggle with portion control.

    BOO!

    ... Just kidding. Hello!

    UK female
    32 years old
    5"5.5 (that half an inch makes a big difference!)

    Generally found hovering between 150lbs and 135lbs. Currently sitting around 139lbs.

    Focused on getting stronger via 5 x 5 Stronglifts program with minimal cutting in order to slightly reduce body fat without sacrificing muscle gain.

    Like: Breaking OHP plateaus, running, videogames, red things.
    Dislike: Protein macros, Medhi's casual sexism, spiders (especially the ones that sneak up to you when you're asleep and RIP YOUR FACE OFF!)

    would love a twin :)
    I'm 21, 5ft7 and currently 157lbs, would like to get to around 135. I'm at uni at the moment and love running, which I'm getting back into after a knee injury, yoga and pilates. I tend to fall down on mindless eating when I'm stressed and/or tired, but i'm determined to get back to where I was. Please message me/ add me if you think we can help each other out :)
