We are pleased to announce that on March 4, 2025, an updated Rich Text Editor will be introduced in the MyFitnessPal Community. To learn more about the upcoming changes, please click here. We look forward to sharing this new feature with you!

Please join me in my mission to a sexy healthy strong by 30.

A little about myself and why I'm here. I'm 29 years old mother of 2 and a business owner, who has always struggled with weight. This year I have decided I would like to be sexy healthy and strong by the time I turn thirty (which is in 7 months. Pretty realistic goal if you ask me lol )

I've also recently discovered my love for weight training (hate cardio) I've joined this community because I would love to have extra support from people with similar goals, or people that have reached their goals and can offer advise. I want to hopefully also bring motivation and inspiration toother.

My mission starts tomorrow Oct 1st. I will be updating my ups and downs on here in hopes that I can find and give help with others. Please message me add me talk to me Id love all the tips and feed back I can get.

- Want to be fit chick by thirty

    Welcome, I'm new here too. Also a 29 year old single mother of two! I'm aiming to make better choices and be accountable for them by tracking what I'm eating. I started in the New Year and lost 16 lbs. - I didn't have a goal at that point - just wanted to make better choices. Since then I put back on about 7lbs since I got lazy and stopped tracking. I'm back this time with a goal of losing 21 lbs.

    You can do this!

    Good for you, girl! I love strength training! I've definitely gotten more noticeable results from lifting than from cardio. I try to do both, but I love seeing other girls at the gym pumping iron!
