I sort of eat well, do exercise and am fighting those menopausal slowing of the metabolism.. need a buddy to get me to take off the 15 pounds that are keeping me out of the jeans, and the clothes that are in my closet taunting me!

YOu can count on me to be a good shoulder- I need a chubby checker to keep on me!!

    I need to drop 15 in the next 2 months, its one of my mini goals and im kinda struggling too! I've already dropped 20 since November....WE CAN DO IT!!

    Next step is eliminating the "sort of" from the "eat well" and adding an extra 15 minutes of cardio everyday!

    lost 20 already? you are a hero.. so we are rather snowed in today and did shovel for an hour.. but the elliptical in the house awaits, so this afternoon we have a date- 30 minutes sounds about right, level 10..

    just found this site- am hoping this will be the inspiration I need- thanks, Marky mark

    I'm in!!! 15 more pounds is all I need to lose! Down 44 pounds already, can't seem to knock off these last few pounds! I need to get back on track with my diet. The holidays took me off course. I gained 3 pounds. I need to focus and I need support! At five pounds a month, this should take us about 3 months. Thanks for posting and hope we keep in touch through this post.

    For this challenge:

    I am right with you. The last 15 pounds is like pulling teeth. Oh so stubborn. I want to lose about a pound a week and really tone up.

    I'm trying to lose the last 19 pounds and get me to 100! I know how hard the last stretch is. I've lost 40 and these last 19 are KILLING ME. Feel free to add me :)

    I'm here for support!

    Hey Lark!

    Any luck finding a walking buddy? If not, you might check out WannaBuddy.com. The site has thousands of parks and trails in a zipcode-searchable database and helps people find others interested in exercise, outdoor activities and healthy activities. Might be worth a try.

    Good luck!
