I'm looking for others who are starting from roughly the same point as me, I'm 5'4", with a starting weight of 146.5 lbs (started on 147.5) and I ideally want to get down to 117lbs. I have a very high body fat % of over 30, and I currently exercise sporadically but am aiming to try and workout 6 day a week doing a combo of cardio and weight training.

Anyone who wants to join me and is a similar size/weight now it would be great if we could keep in touch regularly and help motivate each other to reach our goal!

    Hi all, it would be great if we could do this together although I suspect weight loss will be a little quicker for some of you guys as you're heavier to start with. The heaviest I've been was 180 lbs and I initially got down to 121 lbs around 12 years ago. I was in my late 20s then so I found it quite easy as I wasn't active before and I ate a lot, but since then my weight has fluctuated between 126 and 147 lbs.

    As my new goal is 117 lbs and I'm now 40 I think it will be quite hard but I am determined to do it this time and keep the weight off.

    Hi, I'm 5'1'', 146. Trying to get down to 120 (or less would be ideal). I am mostly sedentary and eat alot. I get started working out and then something happens and I start missing a day or two and before I know it several weeks have gone by without exercise. I really need some motivation. Feel free to add me.

    Hi I'm 5'4" and 144. I want to get to 118-120 by mid March. After 40 it has been difficult to lose and keep it off. I'm in serious need of motivation to workout 5 times per week. Add me in

    Hey, I'm 5'4", about 142 lbs. And I want to get down to about 120lbs. I'm moderately active but i can't stop myself from eating all the time! So i could use some motivation and peer pressure to stay on track. :smile:

    Hi I'm 5'5" and 156lbs, aiming to get to 126lbs ultimately (although I've set my first goal to 140lbs). I've never lost weight the sensible way so any help/ motiviation would be much appreciated! :)

    Thanks guys, you all sound so similar to me. It's really hard to stay on track and stay motivated when there are so many people around us who don't have the same struggles and think we are made for doing what we are. It would be great if we could reach our goals by the end of March so don't give up!

    I am 5'2 & have about 60lbs to lose, to be 138. Although I know I can't lose that by March, I hope to have lost at least 20, by then. This is my final restart and reading about everyone being in the same position is great motivation and helps me feel less lonely!

    Hello all you beautiful ladies!! I am 5'5" and 162 lbs! My comfort zone is around 143'ish. I'd say that's a pretty reasonable goal weight. I am a single mother of 2 teens and in pursuit of my Master's Degree in nursing so late night snacking had been my down fall! I will be turning 42 in March and would love to take this journey with all of you!! Sign me up!!!! Now..... how do I add you? And feel free to add me as well!!!! :)

    Kim!
