I'm looking for friends in their 20s who are trying to lose 20 to 30 pounds!

I'm 24 and am trying to lose the last 25 pounds to reach goal weight. I'm a bit of a serial starter, I have been chipping away at my weight for the past 3 years. BUT I really want this to be the last time I start so I can just be done!

I'm the kind of person who will be super enthusiastic for your successes and will try to be motivating when I see slip-ups. I'm hoping to add people who would do the same for me! Thank you!

    Add me. I'm 28 and I've been gaining a lot of weight lately. Today I saw at the scale that I'm at my worst: 150 pounds. My dream goal for the last 3 years has been to go back to my ideal and sexy weight of 125 pounds. Today I would need to lost 25 pounds.

    I hope for someone to challenge me without making me feel bad about myself. Somebody to share the success and to compare with.

    Hey, if you need someone to be an accountability buddy, feel free to add me. 26 yrs old, another serial dieter trying to lose the same 20 lbs I lost last year and keep it off this time! I could definitely use someone to remind me to put the cookie down :)

    Add me! I'm 26, 5'6, and 148 lbs. I'm a little ambivalent about my goal weight. When I started, my goal was 120. But I started lifting heavy (it's heavy for me at least) and I think that because I'm trying to save muscle mass, I might end up looking better at a higher weight. I need motivation tho!

    You can count me in! I'm 27 and want to lose 30-ish pounds.

    I am also a serial starter. I did my best when I lived in a more urban area and was in love with my local yoga studio. Now that I'm in a rural area and more or less on my own, it's so much harder!

    I'm 21 and I've been at university for 3 years and unforunately put on quite a bit. I feel so upset about it so I'm ready to hopefully get into gear and lose around 25lbs!

    Hey guys,
    Feel free to add me!
    I'm 24 (5'3) and would like to lose about 40lbs (so more than 20!). I used to weigh around 120 as a committed runner, but I suffered a debilitating injury in 2012 and forced me off the sidewalks for almost two years! During that time the weight piled on. I've always had an odd relationship with food, so having the accountability and support there to just simply track would be wonderful. I'm so tired of the extra weight. I'm very active, but regardless of calorie burn, what goes in seems to be my downfall.

    Hello! I'm 26 and also a terrible serial starter. I have been working at losing for about 4 years now, but haven't lost very much in the last 2. I have lost about 70 pounds so far and am really hoping to finally get to my goal in the next six month, which will entail me actually stick to it consistently to lose those last 15-20 pounds.

    Here's to hoping this is the last serial start! :)
