Need some friends with similar goals to stay motivated with!

Options
I'm trying to lose 30 pounds (hopefully 10-15 of it by June!). I'm in need of some diet buddies so I have someone to help keep my motivation going strong. The staying away from junk food is what I have a problem with. I workout a few times a week.

    Hi there! I have similar goals. I never do these community things as I never follow through. However, I'm dead serious about losing weight. I'm heaviest I've ever been. 160 and I want to get down to 130! I am aiming to work out 5 days /week because I'm anxious. Worried it won't happen due to life getting in the way, of course. I used to be a health/fitness nut before I got married and had my son. So I know what to do, its doing it! would be happy to try and support one another and know lots about nutrition, too! I'm off to the gym now- after work --first day. I'm half excited and half feeling the dread. It's not going to be easy but the only way is up when it comes to my weight if I don't do something!

    I'm 5'9 and weigh 202 currently. My goal is 170! I've lost about 15 pounds since the beginning of the year but have fallen off the wagon the past few weeks. I had to have my gallbladder out and plan to workout the first time since then tonight after my son is in bed. I'm actually excited. I enjoy working out. Food is my downfall.

    Hi, I'm 5'3 and weigh 140 currently. My goal is 120 and I've lost about 10 lbs since the beginning of the year. I really like weight training but I hate cardio. My goal is to lift 6 days a week and do cardio twice per day on those days. During weekends, it's really hard for me to stay on track altogether. On weekdays, it's just hard for me to get up for morning cardio. Friend me please. We can motivate each other.
