2017 Adopt a Noob Discussion

I really want to be adopted, it has now become a health Issue for me, as i must loose weight. Please Adopt me. PS i am new on here.

hi. is this still going on? I would like someone to help me still (:

I'd love to have a mentor!

I'm 33, a Husband, Father of 3 ( 10,8,4)! I work sales all day 7am - 8pm most days Monday through Saturday. I am highly motivated but lack of follow through! I've joined this app for accountability and fear I will run out of momentum! Could use some help with motivation and creative ideas for a very busy lifestyle! I believe to have an edge deep inside ! considering I was an All-American , all state cross country , track and field and wrestling competitor! THE BEAST IS INSIDE WAITING TOBE UNLEASHED! Lol!

I would like to be adopted!!

I'm 31, short, silly, and motivated.

I'm 35lbs down, 118lbs to go. I'm trying to remain more focused on the 35 than on the 118 though. I have a 2 year old and a 10 month old (both girls), am married, work fulltime, and am finishing my masters. I'm exhausted. So I focus most of my energy into meal prep and what I put into my body as my time is pretty limited.

I HAVE to lose weight. Have to. I just beat cervical cancer in November, and am now dealing with abdominal masses and hernias. Guess what. They won't fix hernias on fat ladies.

So the only way to get out of pain is to lose weight! 16 more pounds until I can have surgery #1, 80lbs until surgery #2, and 118lbs until final goal. Let's do this.

Hello

I would be more than happy to mentor anyone looking to achieve their goals. My background...I have a master's degree in exercise physiology and still am certified with the American College of Sports Medicine. I have been working out for about 27 years (man, I'm old!). I currently don't personal train any longer, but would love to give advice to anyone looking to improve themselves!

I'm a noob. who wants to adopt me?

35 year old professional, gained 85 lbs, lost 40 lbs.. need to lose 45 more. Can you handle me?
I plan to post pics of my progress... to get back to old me. (there's a picture of that, as well.)

I am a noob, step one of the multi-step process DONE......now what?

Adopt me please. I recently change my diet for the better. I'm weight was 232.8 now I'm 226.0 as of today. I am struggling to stay on track. I cut back on carbohydrates, and that's all keeping thinking about. Help........,

I need to be adopted. I need all the help I can get and don't know where to start.

Adopt me ples :') I'm new, 22 almost, 5ft2.5, female, VERY sedentary and 9st3lb. So technically health y bmi but my body is so flabby!! I have health problems that make it hard for me to loose weight I'm going to the gym and doing very light workouts to tone as my health problems stop me doing anything more 'intense'. Used to be obese and now I'm here and all saggy and flabby and haven't had progress in 6 years! I've recently lost a stone on my own but I've come on here to make sure I go further.

Someone adopt me please.

About me:
I'm 36 (until next month...boo) 5'11" 126.6lbs ( yes, I know I am underweight) I am skinny fat though. I have body fat to get rid of. I do not have access to a gym or weights so I am stuck with my own body weight. I do have resistance bands though. I am doing my best to clean up my eating habits. I mostly do cardio. I need to incorporate more strength training and that's pretty tough. I have a bad knee so squats and various exercises can be a real challenge some days. I also have huge screws in my pelvis (completely shattered and broke my pelvis years ago in a car accident). I got the doctor ok to workout long ago so that is of no concern... just some days I have pain and have to limit what I can do (especially if it is cold outside).

I need someone to help me with the strength training without weights. I am kinda lost and not sure what's best. I know that cardio is good and all, but I will not lose body fat and tone up without the strength portion.
Please.... someone help motivate me and kick my butt in gear. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

I wish everyone much success o their fitness journeys. Good luck! You can do it!!!

Just wondering what is adopting?
