    I'd love to join too. I'm more of a cardio person. I did the whole weight lifting thing but just don't feel feminine anymore. I just enjoy cardio so much more, I can put my headphones in and not think about anything. I have about 15-20 pounds to lose. Thanks for all the inspiration on here

    I'm 5' 0", CW 188.5. My first goal weight is 160. I haven't weighed that in 20 years, hopefully my body co-operates :)

    (Maintenance range: 105-110)
    Current Daily calories: 1100-1200

    Jan and Feb we're so easy. The first 10 fell off practically. March I was worried about loosing too fast so only lost maybe 3 pounds. April I got a Fitbit and ended up practically maintaining bc I was eating back exercise calories. Half way through May I realized that was a bad idea and went back to max of 1100-1200 most days. Currently down to 122 but have been going up/down the same 1-2 pounds it seems for a couple of weeks but overall on the down trend

    Sounds like you're my twin. I have a toddler, weigh around 150 - started at 155lb, have managed to drop 5, yo-yo-ing around 150-148. I've been planning to exercise 3 days a week but haven't gotten the time (I need better time management) to do it. My calories are at 1390. I set it high so I don't get frustrated when I go over, but I am for 1200. Best of luck to us and cheers. I'm sending you a friend invite

    Hey there! When I "joined" this group right after it first got started, we were all picking a weigh in day, and would weekly put in our stats. I came on regularly to "check in" on others, and I've found lots of friends through this group. I suggest all who are thinking they need a little extra support start doing the weekly weigh in thing here -- and discuss what's working and not working. It made a big difference for me-- join in!

    It has been a while since I've done my weekly stats weigh in here -- I had a Wednesday weigh in day -- but I'll get started again with Friday. Next week we'll be away, so I'll be back in two weeks. I think I'm doing ok -- I'm maintaining -- but I would like to do the last 10 lbs. I've been as low as 120 -- but summer is hard!

    SW -- 152 (Aug 2016)
    CW -- 125
    LW -- 120 (May)
    GW -- 115 -117
    Height 5'3"
    Age: 59 yrs.

    Interesting about height -- I used to be 5'3.5" (as someone said, it matters!) -- went for annual physical in January and measured in at 5'2" -- I said nonono and they said yesyesyes (shrinking? Not acceptable!) I've started doing power yoga 3-4 times per week, and when I went again in June (same doctor's office), and they measured my height, I was back to 5'3"! YOGA!! Next, I'm going to try inversion (lol! -- but maybe!)

    I'm in! I always weigh myself on Fridays. I've been staying at the same weight for about a month. I think that I'm snacking more than I realize...Might try only snacking on whole foods for a bit.

    Another "Petite" here.

    Have been everything from 94 to 190 in my life (sigh)... Was 108 to 115 max for about 10 years, but packed on 25 pounds in a few months after some injuries last year.

    Hi! I am so excited to have seen that this group exists? anyone interested in doing a biggest loser contest? The winner will received GLOWING compliments from all of us...and if you wanted to- the top three 1) most weight 2) biggest % 3) all around- each member would send $ to winners. (rather than sending $ to person you don't know to collect, we could individually send it at the end) all we would need to to is have a start date and ending date- 12 weeks?
    1) add your weight
    2) measure your chest, hips, thighs and
    arms and add the measurements
    3) post your weight each Sunday
    morning

    let me know your thoughts!!

    Im 4'11" on a good day and currently 136 lbs. For my sake and to set a good example for my 5 year old daughters I want to lose 30 lbs and change to better eating habits. I am a big over eater and need some support to change and finally lose the weight.

    I'm back from August vacation -- didn't worry TOO much about eating, but seriously, it's hard! Family wanted ice cream EVERY DAY! (Of course! Hard work sunning and swimming all day!) and ate out a lot (every night, actually!) -- poor lobsters never stood a chance....

    So here are the stats!

    SW (August 2016) 152
    CW 125 (no change -- this is GOOD!)
    GW 115-117
    Height: 5'3"
    Age: 59

    I'm within 8 lbs. of my overall goal and THAT feels great! That's my motivation -- I like feeling light AND strong!
