in Motivation and Support
I'm 34yrs old, 5"7 and weighing in at 170lbs on a skinny day. I live in Southern California where bathing suit season lasts for 9months out of the year, so my goal weight is 150lb, hopefully with a little muscle tone. I've never tried to get accountability from online support, but I'm ready to try because it's easy for me to lose motivation by myself. I just got a Misfit activity tracker and already I've been moving more in trying to reach my daily goals. I'd really like to have some other friends on here that want to be healthy and active.

    I also have the goal to lose 20lbs by summer time! And I could really use a good motivator to help me on my journey :). What say we motivate each other to reach our goals?

    In for 20 as well; I use a garmin tracker that sink with MFP and have been meeting my goals with it fitness wise, problem is; I love wine and chocolate :p I've cut back quite a bit though and eating 1200 calories a day now, so let's go!

    Thanks for replying to my thread! Along with my 10,000 steps goal, I am trying to follow the Wheat Belly diet. I've taken out gluten from my diet and most grains, but it's the sugar that's holding me up. I love sweets and %82 dark chocolate just doesn't cut it. Has anyone else tried Wheat Belly?

    Haven't tried wheat belly but keto/banting is really working for me. I've lost 12lbs so far in 3 weeks. I was losing before i started monitoring so MFP says i haven't lost that much but i started at 166. Hoping to lose 20 more by june 1 :)

    We are in such a similar state! I am 5.7.5", 35, and have been bouncing between 168 and 171 for a while now.

    I'm going to send you a friend request and anyone else here can add me too :)
