    Hello there! I'm Premeela. This is the story of my life as well. I'm 31 and grad school has kept me overweight, stationary and constantly stressed. I've spent the last year trying to create a more balanced life. I've lost 10 lbs so far through Zumba, running and eating better. I've got another 20ish lbs to go and I'm hoping 2016 is my year!

    I looking for a group of wonderful people to inspire me daily. Please feel free to add me. Here's to us making it together :wink:

    I will be turning 30 April of 2016 and I'm on a mission to lose 30lbs. I don't want to enter my 30s 30lbs overweight. I'm 5'6" and I weigh(ed) 180lbs. My goal is 150lbs, and I consider it possible since I put on 20lbs in the last 6 months (depression). God is faithful and I'm going for it. I'm watching my carbs and sugars and working in more cardio and stretching. I may consider some lifting.
    Thank you all for sharing!! I look forward to seeing and sharing progress!

    I'm 36 and have 30+lbs to lose. I had almost reached running 5k but I was in a car accident last year and just had ankle surgery so my exercise possibility right now is nil-just recovery. So the only thing I have is food control. I eat clean 99% of the time and am setting monthly goals to improve on.
    Look forward to meeting you all and sharing in your motivation !!

    So, don't hate me, but I am *almost* 30. LOL. and I really want to lose 30lbs by my 30th....if not more. (I lose 26 last year in 8 months, from 164 to 138. then gained 62 in 9 months of pregnancy and I am pretty dead at 170lbs now 5 months PP.) It has been sooo rough. I need support, I need advice, I need real life examples I can live by. Help me friends?!

    I'm 33 with about 70lbs to lose, I have yoyoed my whole adult life and currently am at my heaviest, although I'm not at my biggest clothes size (I exercise more now than when I've been heavy before). Starting over hopefully for good this time! xXx

    I'm 34 5feet and 295pounds :s . I am trying my hardest to try and lose 1-2 pounds a week. My husband finally joined with me and it's great to have a partner in this weight lost journey. I have been dieting for 16 years but always fail. I pray I stay motivated

    I'm 38 and when I started 10 days ago I was 180 lbs and needed to lose 31 lbs.

    I've lost 6 lbs already but I have a disability and cannot do 10,000 steps in a day... not without hurting myself... so this will be hard :( Please add me!

    I'm 32 and have also always been overweight. At one point I was within 10lbs of my goal weight (after losing 130lbs), but in typical fashion, I became complacent and am now 45lbs away from my goal. On Wednesday, I was getting ready to go out with some friends, tried to put on my favorite jeans and they didn't fit..... that was the wake-up call I needed. Today we are back to the grind!

    I'm 38, 5'4" and 231. 18 months ago I weighed in at 277 so I've lost 40ish pounds. I have a mission trip coming up in June and my goal is to have a 1 in front of my weight before I go. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    These past few months I've reached my heaviest weight (244pds) so I became more active and began making healthier eating choices. I've lost 8 pounds so far but looking to get serious and drop 60. I'm 33 and looking for motivating friends to join me on this journey. :smile:
