I want to lose 35 pounds by December.
I want a few friends with goals similar to mine if possible.
I workout 3-4 times a week for 1-2 hours.
1200-1300 calories each day. (1.25-2 pound loss a week)
I'm a vegetarian for ethical reasons not "dieting"
My weakness are eating lots of sauces and dips (kills my caloric intake) ; and I drink a lot of beer on the weekends!
I lift kind of heavy and do a high number of reps and sets.

    You sound pretty similar to me. I'm 5'3 and i weight 158 lbs, I want to lose 30 lbs ideally by October. That's my 30th birthday so lose 30 by the time I'm 30. I workout about the same as you do and have a bit of trouble laying off the drinks and carbs. I'd love to chat on occasion!

    I have more than 30 lbs to lose but you can add me if you like! :)
    I'm starting to work out 5 days a week and eat roughly 1400 cals. I'm not vegetarian but I enjoy vegetarian/vegan meals whenever possible! I also have an open diary.

    I want to lose 35 pounds as well by December. My calorie goals right now are 1300 and I'm 5'11" at 210 lbs. I currently work out 2 times a week but hope to bump it up to what you're doing in a couple of weeks when my schedule becomes more manageable. I always do better in the summer with losing weight (grad student) so I'm ready to hit the ground running in May.

    Anyone can feel free to add me!

    Hi, I'd really like some weight-loss friends too so hope I can also join this thread? I'm following a diet plan put together for me by a diet coach, which I'm finding really good, but I'm just lacking a bit of group support at the moment!
