    I'm 209 and want to get down to 150. I have 4 kids, my youngest is 7 months. I am DONE having babies! LOL. It's time to get healthy and take care of ME so I can be around for many many years for them. Also, I'm 37 years old and have hereditary PCOS. Add me if you'd like. Thanks and good luck to you all.

Anyway, I am hoping to feel better about myself & I want my husband & I to be healthy so we can lead long, awesome lives! I am also in search of people who can relate.

    This is my second go with my fitness pal. Last time I lost about 20 pounds. Looking to get 2015 back in shape. I'm looking for new people to help motivate me and for me to help you. Hope you will add me to your friends list.
    I am 37 yrs old. I work long works at a desk all day. I have a great family. My daughter is 6 years old. She is my inspiration for getting myself back in shape. I'm looking to drop at least 55 pounds before this time next year. then in 2016, another 50. Then I should be back to my normal weight for my height.

    Hi Everyone , I think I top the weight at 292 and my goal is 250, after that everything is a bonus, I know my problem is alcohol, its empty calories pile on pounds , so I am doing Dry Athlon in the UK which means no alcohol for 2 months, that combined with a diet plan of 1800 calories per day should see me lose 2lbs a week, after that anything else is the icing on my proverbial cake. Anyone got any good upper body exercises to help me firm up

    Cheers Marcus

    I definitely need some motivation! A few years ago I went from 189 to 146.. and unfortunately gained most of it back. I am currently at 181 and my goal is 140. Feel free to add me, it's helpful to have people trying to complete the same journey as you.

    I am starting today, I lost (fairly easily) 50+ pounds about 15 years ago... now I'm back in the same boat. If I am honest with myself I should drop 70 pounds to be mid-range of the bmi index. I've decided to make smaller goals so it doesn't sound so overwhelming. Any encouragement would be helpful.
