Hi! I have now been logging with MFP for one full week! I am 5'1", about 163 lbs and 23 years old. I really find it hard to work out, as I am on my feet all day. (Hairstylist) I am looking to lose about 50lbs! I am also looking for more friends for motivation! Feel free to add me! :)

    Hey there! Im 23 and 5'1 too! And I struggle with the same issue of balancing work outs with work and school. I started my MFP at 138 lb and im currently at 125 lb my goal is to get to 114! Which is realistic given that Im a shorty! Being short I feel like 10 extra pounds on me looks like 20 (not alot of places for it to hide!) I think what has helped me loose 12 pounds so far is just cutting temptions out, i dont buy anything i could mindlessly snack on in front of the TV. Also, my roommate is attempted to loose about 80lbs total (she's down 42 already!) we hold each other accountable a lot, and make plans to go running or fit in a late night workout. We also change it up a lot between hiking, rock climbing, weights, etc. anyways, keep at it and you will see progress! And feel free to add me :)

    Hey! I'm on my second time using MFP, after I stopped using for a year I gained some weight. I'm now aiming to lose 15kgs and would be good to have more friends on here for motivation! :)
