I'm Megan and I've been using MFP for a few weeks now. I'd like to find some friends with similar goals and in similar situations as me. About me:

Gender: Female
Age: 19
Height: 5'7"
HW: 200 (Dec. 2008)
SW: 140
CW: 136.5
GW: 125

I go to the gym 5 or 6 days a week, switching off cardio and cardio/strength training every other day. I work at Target so I'm on my feet a lot but not in a great environment. My goals include: lose the weight I gained on my recent volunteer trip to Brasil, fit into my skinnier clothes again, increase my self-confidence, feel stronger, have more energy and feel better!

Please add me if this sounds like you!! Or if you want a new MFPal :)

    We seem very similar! I'm 5'7" and am trying to lose these last pesky 10 pounds. (I'm actually 135 right now and am trying to get down to 125.) I swim 4 times a week, run 2-3 times a week, and then sprinkle a couple misc exercises in there for variety (and fun!).

    I'm hoping to reach my goal weight by August, and then I'll be working on maintaining, which is definitely the hardest part for me.

    I'll send you a friend request, and anyone else in a similar situation can feel free to add me!
  • Thanks everybody!! This is great motivation

    Hey Megan! I'm also a 19 year old! I have a little more than you to lose, but still around 15ish pounds to get to my goal weight! I'm only 5"4 and 3/4 though too.. so a little shorter than you! :)

    I'll send you a friend request now! Anyone else reading this and in the same boat, feel free to add me! I love having friends around my statistics to help motivate and keep me motivated too!
