Hi I'm ann I'm in my 30's and looking to lose 50 lbs this year. I need many supportive and motivative pals and I'll be the same for them. I've lost 12 before I came here but I need to lose 38 more ( even more would be awesome). If you want to know more about me read my profile page it tells all. Good luck and best wishes to all.

    Would love to be friends, I need some more motivational friends too, so add me if you'd like!

    I am 34 and have about 80 lbs to lose to get me below "overweight" and to a normal BMI. I have already lost 14 of that, just hope it keeps dropping off! Best of luck :)

    Hi, I'm 36. I starting losing weight in April of 2012 & I've lost 86lbs so far. I want 14lbs more gone by April so I guess I'll be averaging about 50lbs a year. I still would like to lose 100lbs more after that.

    Hi, I'm in my early 30's and have lost 40lbs and have about 40lbs or so left to go, depending how I feel! I have always been very active and I have to say the weight I have lost really makes a difference, I especially notice it when I'm surfing. I'm pretty stoked to get leaner and more fit! It's good to have MFP friends to help support and help with accountability :)

    I'm 31 and my goal is 50 pounds! My ticker says 40 but I can't change it, lol. I'm down almost 20 pounds but I have a feeling the next 30 is going to be more difficult than the first 20!

    I turned 30 last August and I have let myself get into the worst shape of my life. I am extremely dissappointed in myself because a couple years ago I was in the best shape I have ever been.

    I started nursing school and stopped working out. With the stress of exams and clinicals, I have been stress eating and even stopped doing my morning yoga. I want to lose a least 50lbs or more. I want to get down to a healthy weight again and feel comfortable in my clothes.

    I work a crazy swing shift around my clinicals schedule, so I would also like to figure out how to fit workouts around my school and work. I am a vegetarian and eat generarly healthy, but there are some vices I need to work on.

    I would really like any advice, and support I can get.

    I'm 34 with 77 to lose overall to achieve my goal. I'm down about 22 in 6 weeks. The first few weeks sometimes can be the easiest, but, losing this kind of weight is a LIFESTYLE change, not a DIET. Anyone can feel free to add me for accountability, advice, or unrelenting off-the-cuff anecdotes!
