    This seems like a good opportunity for a first post!

    I'm 36
    5'10.5"
    HW: 235 (years ago), 188 Nov 1, 2016
    CW: 176
    GW: 150-ish

    Started working towards a keto lifestyle Nov 1, 2016. Just started logging MFP this week. Also started back to regular workouts of some sort everyday (I don't have access to a gym or equipment, so still trying out lots of at home things). Doing this with my SO, which is helpful...but it would be awesome to connect with some awesome ladies that have similar stats/goals since his are totally different than mine!

    Thanks for reading...have a beautiful day!

    I could be your twin.

    Age - 48
    Height - 5'9"
    HW- 186?
    CW - 174
    GW - 148 or thereabouts

    I like to run - am training for a half marathon at the moment - buthave an injury so out of action for a short while. Also go to the gym - need to build all over fitness - swim, strength etc

    Have been vegetarian for a few months - with the occasional slip - but I have found that it's hard for me to lose weight on this diet.

    Downfalls for me are - wine, cheese and laziness!

    I'm 41 years old, mum of 2 boys. I used to be very skinny until I got pregnant 12 years ago and suddenly found myself with a proper appetite. It was a good thing, so nice to finally enjoy food properly! But fast forward to today and I find that my metabolism has slowed down and I need to watch what I eat. I'm not overweight but I'd like to lose a few kilos.

    My heaviest Oct 2016 - 67kg
    Lightest ca 21 years old - 48-50kg
    Current weight - 63.5kg
    Goal weight - 58-60kg

    I don't really have an exact goal weight as I'm planning on judging this on A: how easy it is for me to get there and B: how I look and feel. As it's not just about kilos, I don't mind being over 60kg if I've managed to increase muscle mass and decrease fat :smile:

    Feel free to add me if you can relate :)

    I'm about to turn 40. Been yo-yo-ing for a few years now. I reduce my calories for months, loose a pant size and then start increasing my portions (not logging into myfitnesspal) and gain some back. It's just really hard to maintain 1200 calories a day. The first month on the diet is the hardest-being hungry all the time. I have an overseas fitbit off-brand that tracks steps. I do have a treadmill that I use occasionally. I'd like some friends to compare notes with.

    5'9"
    Heaviest - 192.5
    Current - 174
    Goal - 140-145

    Technically my highest weight was 205 lbs but that was when I was pregnant with twins so I don't think that actually counts.

    I carry most of my extra fat in my lower stomach (food baby anyone?) and thighs. I honestly don't care about the number on the scale, I just want to be able to fit in my pants and not feel like I need a maternity panel by dinner time. I wouldn't be upset if I found my abs under there in the process :) I'm trying to stick to mostly clean eating rather than following any particular "diet". I workout 3-5 times a week (yoga, group-x classes, and lifting mostly). I'm looking for more friends ('twins' or not) to help keep me more accountable. I'm also using dietbet and I find the community there really helpful. . . also having some cash on the line doesn't hurt as motivation either.

    probably oldest to group and late to the "party" so to speak but here goes:
    age: 54
    height: 5'2"
    hw: 173
    cw: 125.4
    gw:115

    started with MFP several years ago and did very well for the first several years.
    These past 2 years+ I have been horrible at not logging and not able to seem to keep my motivation to stick to healthy eating....ie....resorting to eating and drinking A LOT of empty calories & not exercising as was my habit prior to starting with MFP.
    Looking to try to get back to doing better and resume loosing as I had gotten down to 118 prior to falling off my motivation wagon so to speak....
    :-(
