hi am desperately seeking to lose 20lbs. I need supportive friends help me stay on track and stop binging on weekends & stay active. Am 5'5 bouncing btwn 157-160 these last few weeks. My biggest struggle is the food part. Family vacation is in Aug and I want to feel confident.

    Same here. I set a very challenging target to lose 20 pounds in two months. I have an event to attend in August and I need to look great! Let's motivate each other . :)

    I'm desperate to lose 20 pounds ASAP. I found out I was being called fat and made fun of behind my back after I gained 30 pounds last year. I want to show them I can control my weight again and I can't stand to be in this body any longer. It's just so hard when everything I do revolves around eating and drinking!

    Please include me! I've been trying to lose 20 lbs forever and just can't seem to stay on track. I get discouraged too quickly. I'm 4'11" and 120 lbs. My dr is constantly telling me to get it off. I just started tracking again yesterday. What exercises are you doing?

    I feel your struggle! 5'5 152 trying to loss 25 more (I have lost 12 so far).
    Very similar goals. I got down to 150 and slowly started gaining few kbs back. Am ready to get rid of it. No more cheating.

    Same here. I feel like i worked so hard to not see any results. So i just gave up. Last month i worked out at the gym. Lost nothing. Starting insanity today and switching off w running outdoor.
