    Feel free to add me! My goal is to lose 10 lbs of fat and I am training for a half marathon. I do more running training but do strength training 2x per week.

    Hiya, I've just started training after giving up smoking 6 months ago... I'm learning to eat my macros & as an ex calorie counter I'd love to see other people's food diary to get some new ideas ☺

    I'm desperately trying to loose weight. And I'd really like to tone too...but I don't seem to be making any progress. 5'6" and 200, possibly a little more lbs...I want to be down to 140-120 if possible.I'm at the gym 5-6 times a week or at least the "gym" we have in our apartment complex which is just cardio and I bring my dumbbells with me...but to no avail. If you have advice or tips I'd love to hear them.

    Hi! I've been using MFP for a while but I'm new to the community section. You can add me! I find that most of my friends are not really into eating well and fitness, and those that do work out typically don't do strength training. I'd love to meet/talk to some people with similar interests! :)

    Feel free to add me. My goals are to continue to gain strength and lose body fat, so I lift 3x week (currently doing a variation on SL 5x5 but thinking of switching to Wender 5/3/1 soon, especially if I need to cut back to only lifting 2x/week). I also do cardio in the form of trail running and just started krav maga. I'm not interested in getting down to a specific number on the scale, but I'd like to continue to build strength and cardiovascular fitness. I had a rough year and regained a bunch of the weight I'd lost since I first joined MFP waaay back in the day, so I'm currently working on getting that back off.

    I am interested in this group, I'm 40 and used to run but have realized lifting is more important at my age. I have gained 10+ pounds since summer and need to get back on track. I usually do 60 minutes of cardio 4/5 days a week and I've just started lifting weights for 30 min after cardio each day. I also need help keeping on track with my diet.

    Switch to doing your weights first :wink: go heavy and finish off with cardio if you wish! You'll get greater benefits from the weights than cardio so use your energy on those :smiley:
