    I opened a MFP account several years ago but never really used it.

    I'm 5'7
    HW: 136 (a few years ago)
    LW: 115 (2012)
    CW: 129
    GW:120 (eventually bellow 120 but want to keep it achievable)

    In the fall I was training for a half marathon, currently I am doing Insanity 4days/week and weight lifting 4 days/ week. I would love active friends to help motivate me :smile:

    I joined MPF years ago after my baby was born and my weight was really high. I just restarted MFP two weeks ago with the starting weight of 163. I strength train and do cardio almost everyday!

    I'd like to join you guys.
    I'm nearly 39, and am desperate to shape up before I'm 40 next year, I weigh about 138lb and want to get below 130, but need to make sure I don't get bored as this has happened frequently. I'm currently doing t25 3-4 times a week. I'm 5'5 xx

    Really looking for some inspiration. Determined to finally hit my goal this year. Fed up of never getting anywhere and always gaining what I've lost back again.

    This is what I keep doing, lose a bit then get complacent or bored and end up back to square 1 x

    Hi! I'm almost 43, a runner, 5'4, and in the 130s (getting to the top of the range with the goal of maintaining at the bottom/middle of the range.) I would say my build is muscled as I wear a pretty small size for my weight (a 4-6). I am extremely active and my challenge is NOT eating back the calories I burn!!! I am not someone who lost a lot of weight and is trying to lose the final five...I've always been this size, hovering within a few lbs. of goal but rarely hitting it for more than a month or two. :-( Hoping I can figure this out once and for all!

    I turned 40 this past fall and have realized that I have to work a LOT harder to keep the pounds off. I've never been heavy, but am definitely much softer now than I ever have been. My belly hanging over my pants is a new development and I don't like it. I work out 3-4 times a week with a small group and a trainer and that is going well, I feel like I just need a kick in the pants when it comes to eating better.

    Hi everyone! I hope this thread isn't too dead but I am new here and so glad I found this group....I posted on the main message boards and didn't get any sympathy or camaraderie.

    I am getting married in September and would love to add some new friends on here to help each other stay accountable!

    HW (in college): 155
    SW (Jan 1, 2017): 150

    Goal is to stick to 1500 calories and lose 0.5-0.75lb/week. Who's with me?

    I'm with you, leo10021! I'm also 5'8", currently 148lbs, want to be 135 (ideally by my birthday, June 15th, but by the end of the summer would be fine too).

    I'm always looking for people to motivate with. I'm pretty sure my friends IRL don't want to hear about this stuff since "your in pretty good shape, why do you care???"

    I am currently cross training at the gym 5 days a week and also doing C25K. Last year, someone literally laughed at me and said "You??" when I said I'd like to try a marathon. I really suck at running right now but I signed up for my first 5K in mid-April and I am pushing towards that goal. Also, I have a beach trip on the 1st of june that I'd like to wear a bikini for...
    Friend request me if you feel so inclined...

    I am a busy mother to a 4&6 year old. I work out approx 5 times a week with a balance of walking, HIIT workouts, cardio and weights and classes at the gym. I eat quite healthy normally staying around 1200-1300 calories a day (very little junk food at all) but I enjoy a drink and probably have about 8-10 over the week (wine/beer/gin) mostly Fri - Sun. I have gained weight since I have started really working out/tracking calories since August 2016 - I do not know my fat percentage though but I am assuming/hoping it is due to muscle. I do not notice a big difference in my clothes but I do notice that I am certainly stronger.

    Low carb high fat! I actually am following the Atkins40... day 4 today... so far so good! But I've never done anything like that before... I've always just focused on getting enough protein (watching calories) and not worrying too much about carbs. so i'm giving this a chance to see how my body responds!

    I'm substantially older than anyone I've seen post here, but otherwise have the same problems and goals. I lost weight using MFP about four years ago by diligently logging in and logging calories. I've done quite a bit of back-sliding and I'm currently trying to kick myself in the *kitten* and get back on track. Weight creeps back on so insidiously... I'm moderately active with walking, horseback riding, and working out at Planet Fitness. I do need to commit to a more regular workout schedule though. I'd love some new friends...I have a small frame, small bust, and am not muscular (never have been). So even though my weight puts me in the normal range, I am too flabby around the thighs, hips, and butt.
