in Introduce Yourself
Just saying...need to lose 30 lbs and I need to relate to people who have more drive and motivation to push. I need a motivator and it goes both ways. I'm open to discussion and feel free to add me. Thanks

    Hello! I'm a 22 year old that also wants to lose 30 pounds but I'm focusing on ten at a time! I would love to get through this with someone if you're interested in being my buddie! I'm not a creeper just a young adult needing some motivation as well! Please feel free to add or email me at lindsey_pierce@yahoo.com

    Hi! I'm 33, wedding in June. I would LOVE to drop 30lbs, but I think 20 is more realistic. Feel free to add me as well and perhaps I'll stick to tracking :)

    I would love to lose 30lbs too, and in truth I probably need to, however I am done with setting myself goals i can't achieve in a time frame that encourages me, so....I set myself a lower goal and then adjust it when I hit it. So each week I celebrate a goal, re-adjust , set the next and hit it. Keeps me motivated, its the old saying - how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time :)
    1lb is my goal.even with holidays and Christmas I should manage to lose 1lb 30 times out of 52?

    I need to lose 30. Maybe more. But 30 will be awesome to start.

    I'm aiming for about 20-25lbs before my wedding! Weighing in at 170lbs (5'6") atm but carrying lots of muscle so even when I was at my lightest I was still 147lbs. Makes me feel quite guilty seeing people on here with 147 as their start weight and getting down to 115 or something! Waaa :(

    Awesome guys! I tried to keep my daily calorie intake at 1200-1400 to lose 8lbs in 5 weeks. I think these is achievable. I usually get disappointed when I don't see any results but I just started this week. So let's keep connected and inspire each other. My weakness is chocolate and ice cream. What's yours? I'm excited to hear about your goals also.

    Count me in if you'd like. I need to lose way more than you do and am starting this Monday, with exercise and dieting (I know that's a horrible word), um let's say, a change in food intake.

    Same here. End of April goal is about 30lbs (20 would be okay), total about 45 by end of summer. sticking to max of 1600 cals a day, 1200 min. weakness is salty/fatty foods- so im eliminating (along w/sugar) chips and crackers and such.
