I'm looking for friends to help keep me motivated and on track with this weight loss journey. Losing weight is hard and I think everyone could use friends to give a little "pick me up" or any other sort of support. Plus dieting and exercising is a lot more fun and easier when you have people to do it with...even if you don't know them personally :).

Soooo...about me. My name is Kerri. I live in Minnesota. I have a 4 year old son. I'm in school to be a RN and will be graduating in May and I can't wait! I want to lose about 30 pounds...eek, I have a lot of hard work in front of me! I have a really hard time getting motivated to work out but I feel amazing when I'm finished. My workout program is called Slim in 6 from beach body. I did it last year and lost 20 pounds in 8 weeks! Unfortunately, I lost interest and went back to my old habits and gained almost (but not all) the weight back :(.

If your ready to take this journey and looking for friends please feel free to add me!! We can do this together!!

    Hi Kerri, I'm Kelly and I too want to lose at least 30lbs. I have two boys and it is difficult. It is funny that you are from Minnesota because my one friend is actually going there tomorrow with her boyfriend. They are going to see Tesla in concert and gamble at a casino....I think they plan to go see The Mall of America or something...Anyway I live in Kersey Pennsylvania and am a busy working mom. I am a therapist and seem to put everyone first...job hazzard as well as mom hazzard. I would love to give you support and you give me support to get through this. :happy:

    HI!!
    Losing weight isnt easy. I have 3 kids so eating healthly is always easy. Im so tired from work and everything else but hey at least we are trying.

    I would like to 25 pounds. I am going to be joining the military and although i am accepted through taping when I get to boot camp its going to be a BIG wake up call.

    I just started the instanity workout and man its my a**!!! But im going strong.

    So how are your goals looking?
