Anybody else have goals that are similar? I want to work really close with someone (or many someones!) so I can stay motivated. Maybe start a group? Thoughts? Ideas? Let me know!

    Hey! I'm 5'7" and currently weigh 155 :smile: If a group could be started that would be fantastic! I have 15 to lose on my ticker and will re-evaluate then! I'm really excited :bigsmile:

    That is totally me. I lost 25 lbs last May-December but slipped back into my old ways and stopped working out as much. I made the committment to pick it back up last week and have 25-30 more pounds to lose. Add me if you'd like! :)

  • Similar stats here, too. I started at 169.5 and want to be 135. I'll send a friend request and weigh in on Wednesday's, too!
