Need friends i'm 5'5" CW:181 GW:120 UGW:115

Options
Hi I'm looking for friends that are in the same boat as me. I'm 5'5" and weight 181 (a fact I hate to admit). I gained the weight from my pregnancy with my daughter who is now two. I fluctuated between 108 and 135 before my pregnancy and want to get back there again. I need some motivational friends to help keep me going.

    Count me !. I was just perusing the internet trying to find some inspiration. I, too, am 181 lbs, and 5'6". I am so tired of restrictive diets, pills, shots and binge eating to boot! I love it when my stomach is flatter and my clothes fit looser. Thanks for your post. You have inspired me.

    While dieting can be difficult, the key is exercise. When you start to see results from both diet and exercise, it can be motivating. Take your youngster with you, push a stroller, pull a wagon but do something! You will feel much better, both physically and mentally. Drive on!

    Feel free to add me. I am 5'2", about 185, and recovering from ankle surgery. My goal weight is 120, but my August mini-goal is to lose 5lbs and get under 180.

    Hi there! You can do this! I'm 5'4" and a few months ago I was at 193. With exercise and watching what I eat I'm already down to 166. It's not easy but so worth it and POSSIBLE! You can do it! Add me as a friend if you want - I'll cheer you on. :)

    Hi! We're kinda similar. I'm 5'1", started around 180, currently 155 and GW of 135 and will re evaluate once I get there, might go lower.

    Anyone can add me if they'd like! I'm 25, 5'5 and 160 (down from 220) and looking to get to around 140 and see how I'm feeling. I'm on here daily.

    Hopefully I can serve as a bit of inspiration ;) I'm 5'7 and started at 176 in January. I'm now down to 119. So while my stats don't match EXACTLY, they're fairly close to your goals. Wanted to let you know it is possible with hard work!! Don't let others deter you or tell you your goals aren't achievable!! :) You go girl!
