5'7 young adult 165 pound ladies??

Options
Hey! I am looking for some women that are kind of in the same range as me to help motivate me or provide me with good meal options to keep me full. I recently got married and have gained 15 pounds since! I want to lose about 20 pounds by June. Looking for others that are in similar situations!

    hi! I'm around 5'8 and weigh the same as you! I used to weight a whole lot less, about 140, and felt great! I've been out of shape since then and have gained it all back and then some. I have a very similar goal of losing 20 pounds as well, too, so feel free to add me and we can totally motivate each other. :)

    I am 5'7" and currently 172. I also got recently married (back in April 2015). Looking to lose about 30 more lbs by August because I will be a bridesmaid for a friend. Don't know if I will hit the full 30 lbs lost by then, but I hope to be a lot closer. I lost about 20 lbs for my wedding and I also have gained a lot of it back now. I just started up last week!

    I am 5'7 and a half, and I weigh 156. About 7 months ago I weighed 125. I have my wedding in November. But I'd love to lose all that I've gained quickly. My fiance doesn't mind it and doesn't speak negatively about it. But I want to show him he's worth losing the weight over and be back on his arm for him to show off. As I have been very self conscious seen the gaining of weight. I could really use the motivation, I've never had to diet before in my life (age & metabolism are catching up to me) so this has been very very difficult for me.

    I can totally understand! My husband is very supportive of my weight loss goals, but it's just so weird to feel this way because I've never had trouble with gaining weight. I suppose it's a part of being an adult :)

    I was 137 before I had my son. But I won't blame him for my pregancy weight gain, as I only gained 25 lbs with him. I just never lost more than 15 lbs after I had him because of my love of food, lol.

    5'8" and currently 155. I got up to 182 (gasp) but have lost 27 pounds. I'd like to get around 140 and then continue to work on increasing muscle mass and decreasing fat.

    I guess I don't fit the "young adult" part, but I feel like I do if that counts. :):):)
