    5'6''

    Heaviest: 155
    CW:149
    Goal: 135

    I can see my top 4 abs on a daily basis. I need to start upping my cardio and stop baking so many f'in cakes. I need to get under 135 for a fight in February. I would love any advice from any of the females!

    You're very close to my twin!

    Nice to know there are others in my situation :) For me, the change has been mostly reducing of all the starchy, comfort foods I love so much (chips, potato, rice, etc) and changing my portions.

    What kind of cardio do you do? I've gotten back into long-distance running over the last month and a bit and it feels great!

    I don't consider myself "big" idk I've been struggling with my weight for years and these past months I've gone to the gym regularly but the number on the scale has gone up.
    5'10
    Heaviest and current: 200 lbs
    kinda cried when I saw that
    Goal: 170 lbs

    I just want people who I can depend on and talk to who are struggling with the same thing
  • Hi! I'm Fi, really new to all this, and I'd love to find a motivational buddy or a group of friends that have similar goals! I don't need a long introduction, just friend me and say hi! :wink: I love meeting new people and I'd be happy to encourage anyone (even if you're not at all my height/weight/calorie requirement, I'd be delighted to have you add me :smile: ) Of course, someone similar would be perfect - the idea of a twin sounds fun!

    Age: 19
    Height: 5'7"
    Starting Weight: 140
    Current Weight: 128
    Goal Weight: 121

    I cycle a lot and I love lifting (can only do cardio at the mo though due to surgery aftermath). Reason I gained weight was a lot of stress due to school stuff and me eating too much. Not unhealthy stuff, just... too much. Calories in VS calories out... yeah. :neutral:

    So I'm trying to get it off with a ~1200 cal limit until I hit my goal weight and tone a bit, then I'll go into maintenance. Say hi, I'd be happy to have friends here!

    I may be you twin! A couple inches shorter and a tad older but here it goes:
    Height: 5'

    Goal: 118 or less

    Current weight: 127.5
    Goal weight: 115 lbs. My when I got married weight.
    Attainable for sure! With help from my friends. wink, wink

    "they" say, on that "BMI" plus machine, I need to drop 21 and gain 7 lbs. of muscle.

    I just want to feel good and have more confident. I'm too young at heart to have a old body and be called old.

    Hello!

    Age: 20 next month
    Height: 5'3
    Heaviest: 138
    Lowest: 112
    Current: 120
    Goal: 100

    I have pretty toned abs but have most of my fat near my bum! I have been on Jillian Michaels for a week but because of my anemia I kept on going blind during the workout. Now I do the workout twice-ish a week when I feel more energized. I walk 0.5 - 6 hours daily, trying to keep myself active!

    Age:44
    Height: 5'5"
    Current weight: 142
    Goal weight: 135
    Current body fat: 17.8%

    I just want to lose the fat and tone up! At 44, I don't want to lose too much weight because I don't want my skin to sag! I want it allllll firmed up! If that means I stay at 140 but am super toned, I will take it!! :-)

    Hello! I think we are similar:

    Age 35
    Height 5'5
    Current weight 142
    Goal: 132

    Body fat, no idea, but I'm like average, may be 25%? Two years ago I know I had 27

    Hi!

    Age: 20
    Height: 5'9''/5'10'' (around 177 cm)
    HW: probably around 165 lbs (75kg)
    CW: 154 lbs (70Kg)
    GW: 140 lbs

    What I really want is to tone my body and feel healthier rather than lose weight, I really like sports but in the last year I've been lacking the motivation to work out, started going to the gym several times but ended up dropping out every time. Hopefully I can find other people who have the same goals and we can help each other stay motivated! :D

    Heighest weight: around 154 lbs
    Current weight: 148 lbs
    Goal weight: 135 lbs

    I am naturally a bit curvier with wide hips and an hourglass figure but unfortunately most of my fat lies around my hips in an unsightly fashion!! Not a good look! I quite like my legs but would like to tone up my thighs a bit.

    We're really close to one another (even in body type!)

    Heighest weight: 164 lbs
    Current weight: 152 lbs
    Goal weight 130-135ish lbs

    I'm currently struggling to picture my hourglass at my goal weight and hoping it comes off in the right places.
