    Well I'm 22 and looking to lose 80 pounds. My first goal is 40 though. I lost that 2 years ago then met my now husband and all that wining and dining brought it back lol I'm 243 pounds as of today. I started last Thursday and am so pumped! My calorie "goal" is 1170 but I'm actually aiming between 1200 and 1500. I walked for an hour on my treadmill today. Getting to that was tough. May sound like a wimp but O well. I've learned jamming to music really helps vs watching TV.

    you go! The same happened to me I met my boyfriend when we were 16 and I had never even eaten at taco bell haha I was about 120 pounds and could run for miles without stopping! His lucky *kitten* is so tiny that all the fast food didn't affect him so while I gained 80 lbs he stayed at 120 :/ my goal is about 1200 as well and we just bought an elliptical so I've been doing 3 or 4 miles when I get the motivation! Its a hard workout

    Looks like we all have very similar goals! I'm 23 years old. I just finished 5 years of school (graduated.. holla!) and I have used it as an excuse for not taking care of myself properly. I'm ready to take some action here. I don't have any friends on MFP (so far).. Any twentysomethings that want to add me too should do so!

    Wow! It sounds like we are going to go far! So many aiming for similar goals is a great encouragement! I've added some and for some reason my app is telling me that "likes and comments are not available at this time" which is weird. I'm cheering for everyone though!
