Hey all!
I'm looking for someone who is around my age, just starting out, and with about the same amount of weight to lose. I'm 27 years old and have been on MFP for 2.5 weeks. I'm 5'2" and 240 lbs. I'm also very active on the site and love cheering people on! I LOVE reading everyone's posts but it helps so much to have someone working toward the same goal as you. Let me know if anyone is interested!!
Good luck everyone!!!

I am 31 and my starting weight in Jan was 227. I am at 208. I am a daily user. I find that have a group of women in my workout classes is my best motivation. I go six days a week to the gym. I do Zumba for four of those days and a combo of 30 day shred and Insanity on two of the days. I and really inspired by others in my classes. I hope that helps! I would gladly cheer you on from MFP!! I just know that it wouldn't be enough for me. I need the others to keep me motivated to come back to class. We also go out for a social night once a week as a group! I love it! So, if you are part of a gym, I suggest befriending a few women who you work out with and form friendships with them as well.0

Hi there. I'm 25 and have lost 105 pounds so far. It is possible! Unfortunately, I am maxed out on friends since I posted my success story. MFP only allows 250. Anyway, you can click the link for my success story for some inspiration. I know others' stories always help to inspire/motivate me when I'm feeling overwhelmed. I'm working on the last 15 pounds now, so I will be down a total of 120 by the time I'm done, whenever that happens. Just know that we are all here for you, and I wish you the best of luck!0

i'm 27 and 5'2" too.. My starting weight was 250.. You can do it just keep it up! add me if you like.. I did it on my own for a year and recently made some friends on here they are a lot of motivation.. I should have done that in the beginning I would've probably lost more weight faster.0

I just turned 37, just had my first child last year. He's 10 months old now. But been big all my life. At my heaviest I was 290. Currently Im 271, joined last week and lost 3 pnds! So I started at 274. I want to get to 200 first then add more as I go. I have not been near 200 since I was 14! I have blood pressure issues so health is my main concern, my reason for telling yout this is so that you will start now and not get where I am. Its so much harder at this age than in your 20's! Good luck to you. Add me if you would like.0

Hey sugar-here if you need a friend, I know I do too! I am a 32 year old woman, who has been through quite a bit, but I do not let it hold me down, and I do not feel sorry for myself. I weigh 241, and my first goal is to lose down to 190 and I am going to get myself a belly button ring! I love the way you displayed your goals, and you are gorgeous! You got this girl! I mean it! )) XOXO0

Thanks everyone! I can't believe how supportive EVERYONE is on here without even knowing each other! You all have such kind words. I'll be here for you all as well. Soon I hope to me the one telling my success story to newbies as well!0

You are already one of my friends but I would love to help motivate you and you help me :happy:
I am 27 also and still have a ways to go. Actually a loooong way to go but I try to only focus on a few pounds at a time instead of thinking about all the pounds left.
You are doing great! Keep it up!!0
