Hi,

Looking to add some friends who are in their mid 30's and are moms.

I am 34 with 2 children (12 & 9) and I'm looking to lose 20lbs by my 35th birthday (April). Looking to add those that have similiar stats or goals.

I am on mostly throughout the day and I don't get a chance to get online much in the evening...with 2 kids I'm always busy!

Add me as a friend if you like!!

  • Hi. I'm 36 with a 14 year old son. I am 5'8" and weigh 153. My ultimate goal is to get to 130, but I will be happy at 140. My mini goal is to get to 150 by Christmas. I'll add you.
  • Well, I will be 30 in Feb, but I have 3 kids, so I feel older! :) I want to lose 10 lbs by my bd, and 10 more after that! I desperately need some support. May I join?

    Not sure 36 is mid-30s anymore :), but would love to have another friend to help support me and maybe give some mom advice. I'm a first-time mom and I have eight month old daughter. I still need to leave lose the baby weight (~15 lbs) to lose and about ten to fifteen on top of that. Please feel free to add me as your friend.

    :wink: I think I've added everyone so far...might be easier to add me so I don't miss someone!

    YAY!! I have friends (that sounds a little desperate).

    Maybe we can do a little "About Me" session.

    I'll go first...but I have to get a bit more work done first

    Hi I'm 32 with a 15 yr old son in high school, 11 yr old daughter in middle school and a 6 yr old in elementary! I know how you feel but I always tell myself if other moms can do it, SO CAN I! :)
  • Hi - I'm 37 with a 2 year old son. Trying to lose weight and get fit to be the healthiest I've ever been. Got another 10lbs to go to meet my original goal but I suspect when I get there I will continue for another 5lbs or so. MFP has really helped boost me off a summer-long plateau...motivating me to work out since that is my toughest challenge.

    Nice to meet you!:flowerforyou:
  • :smile: Hello, I'm a mother of 2 children (an 8 year old and a 6 year old) and I'm 33, soon to be 34 on 12/20. I weigh approx. 210 and would am working toward a goal weight of 165. I felt that it was time to become healthy when I was approaching the weight I was 9 months pregnant with my son. So, I have been working out 6 days a wk and have been watching my caloric intake. I have not lost any weight, but I have droped a pant size (went from an 18 to a 16, YEAH!!!) the scales and I do not get along, So I have banned it from my home until after Christmas. Add me if you want, it would be great to have a friend with the same goals.!!!:smile:

    Hi! I am 34 years old and just gave birth to my first child 3 month ago. After giving birth, I continued to eat as though i was pregnant (and am still wearing maternity pants) and now I am ready to lose some weight and get back into an exercise routine to get my energy level up. I am hoping to get to my pre-pregnancy weight by June. i would love to make friends with women in the same boat as me!
