    I'm 31 and would like to lose about 50lbs- jeez it sounds so overwhelming just typing it. My biggest challenge is the pressure I get from my family (especially since I am single and of course they say no one will ever marry me like "this") .. It makes me really mad bc I don't want to lose weight for them, they should accept me the way I am even if I never lost another pound. Ironically, when they stop pressuring me is when I tend to lose the most anyway. I know it's counterproductive to not want to do something good for yourself bc others are demanding it, but it's really hindering me. What can I do?

    Hey Nita, sorry to hear you're getting pressure from your family - that's really not nice at all and bad of them to do so. You should only lose weight if you need to for your health or for your happiness and self confidence. You look lovely on your pic so do it for yourself and nobody else. I'm 37 and single and very happy. I find it easier to lose weight now then when i'm with a partner because i'm in complete control of my diet and have my own self motivation to progress. Good luck x

    Keep going! This is just a cloud, and your going through an eye of a storm towards your road of the perfect house you want for your body. Don't give up. Give up your emotions to God. And watch the storm pass.

    If you're using the mobile app, go to friends tab (above community), click the plus sign to add friend, click the bottom choice to add by username, type in username and send request.
    I'm going to send you a friend request.

    I just turned 31 and have lost almost 50lbs so far. Many to go but always look for motivating, friendly people along the way!

    I actually didn't discover this til I was 30. I always wanted to lose weight through my 20s but never figured out the real way til I joined this! I know it works, so let's do this!

    Please add me! Early 30s mom working 50+ hours/week looking to lose 30-40lbs. Just started focusing on it for the first time in about 5 years and hoping to make permanent lifestyle changes (and fit into an old dress for a friend's wedding next month).

    37, high school teacher, have about 50 lbs to lose. Was derailed from my efforts in February by some torn cartilage and got surgery at the beginning of July. Back in the saddle!!

    I truly understand how an injury can not only make it harder to lose but make you gain too. Let's get our injured butts in gear

    Hi! I'm 31 in NC. I weigh the most I've ever weighed & I'm completely disgusted by it! I HAVE to lose this weight... I want to feel good again! My goal is to lose about 30lbs. I'm only 5'2" so every pound shows. My husband can eat and eat and eat and never gains, he's nothing but muscle. I eat a fraction of what he eats & I just keep packing it on! I've gained over 20lbs since our wedding last year. I want to be healthy and feel good about myself again. I'm determined! But I need some support from others who know how I feel. I would love to join in with you guys! <3 Steph
