I have no special occasions coming up, I have no life changing goals ahead of me. I weigh 180 pounds and stand 5 foot 5 inches. I want to lose about 40 to 50 pounds. Looking for some friends along the way to support me and encourage me. Gals and guys welcome.

    same here. had lost some weight but can feel it creeping back on. Need to stay motivated. My partner is a good help cos he encourages me with exercise but I know I easily slip into bad habits.

    I'm in the same place as you -- both in having no end-goal of a special occasion AND being 5'5" with 40-50ish pounds to go. Feel free to add me if you'd like!

    Why, in your obviously extensive experience, is it a stupid to have such a goal as to lose 40 pounds...?
