Hi friends,
My name is Lisa and I have a two year old daughter. I lost all the baby weight but I am working hard to loose the rest of the weight. My goal is 150 lbs. I currently weigh 168 and am 5 feet 5 inches tall. I would love to add women that are close to my weight range on here to see what you are eating and to encourage each other. If you would like to do the same please add me.

Thank you

    It seems I'm on the tall side here!
    Hi I'm Rebma!
    5'8.5" and Currently 161. Started out at 305 and am also looking for friends to keep me motivated in this final push!
    Medium frame.
    This is the smallest I've been since puberty so I can't quite pick a goal weight, am thinking 135-145

    I'm 5 ft 2, and weighed in at 166.2 this a.m. My short term goal is to get to 164 by next Friday. I'd like to eventually get down into the mid 120s to 130s. I am small framed, so I could technically weigh as low as 115, but thats too overwhelmimg to take on right now. I will rejoice at 150!

    I'm 5'7, 35 years old, and 170 with 35% body fat. Theoretically I would like to get to 140, but I'd be thrilled just to get to 27% body fat. You can friend me anytime! My food diary is public

    Hi Rebma. I would love to connect. I'm the same height and have the same goal weight. You are a bit ahead of me as I'm sitting around 170.

    Heya - I'd be keen to join an accountability group with you ladies! 5'3", 168.0 exactly this morning. I'll be 27 in about a month and I'd like to get back on track with my health goals.
    I say ultimately I'd like to see 128lb but really it'll be more about the size and quality of my body definition instead of a firm weight goal. The fittest I've ever been I got down to 140.

    Hi there, I'm 5'7" and 41 yrs old. CW 166. My GW is 150, and then I will reevaluate. The smallest weight I can remember is 140 in Gr 11 but have always felt on the plump side. I have a 1yr old and a 5yr old. I am new to posting and would love to have similar sized friends!

    Hey all! Is anyone interested in getting a "group" going? Threw this up in case. Nothing fancy, but I think it might be easier to keep up with each other in a setting like this. :)

    Hi friends,
    My name is Lisa and I have a two year old daughter. I lost all the baby weight but I am working hard to loose the rest of the weight. My goal is 150 lbs. I currently weigh 168 and am 5 feet 5 inches tall. I would love to add women that are close to my weight range on here to see what you are eating and to encourage each other.

    Thank you

    I was 168 in March and now 135, I'm 5' 3 1/2" - I got sick so that contributed to my weight loss, but I have to say, it was like 90% eating WAY less and 10% exercise. like, way less for several months. 1200-1400/day. even if I hadn't been sick, if I had just done what I did then, I would've lost the weight. the key was PROTEIN SHAKES - a giant one for lunch every single day. and completely rethinking what a meal is.

    now that I'm in maintenance mode, I can eat a lot more again! 1600-2100/day depending on how active I am. A 2100 calorie day is an EXTREMELY active day

    I hope this helps at all?

    my diary is open, feel free to add me

    Weighing in at 165. Scale isn't moving. Pretty inconsistent right now as I struggle with motivation. But hoping to develop an action plan and stick to it. My calorie goal is 1200. Anyone feel free to add.

    I just joined the group, but I thought I would introduce myself here. I am 51, 5 foot 4 inches. I was VERY unkind to myself in the spring and summer and put on roughly 20 pounds in short order. MFP thinks my starting weight was 164, but on Sunday, I was 172. April 2016, when I turned 50, I reached 144 pounds and looked and felt great. Crept up slowly after that, then quickly this last little bit. Would love to get back down to 144 again by April. My name is Lisa.

    I lost 23 pounds or so in Spring of 2016. Fell "off the wagon" at the holiday season last year. Have been on and off with food and exercise and gained every pound back. I suspect menopause and hormone replacement therapy are partially at fault, but I need to overcome that handicap. I got back on the wagon on Sunday - logging food, making better food choices and exercising.

    I am 51. Used to be 5' 9 1/2" but age has shrunk me to 5' 8". :(

    I weigh 173. Goal weight is 141-149 - not concrete on that as I will go more by how I feel in clothes and when I look in the mirror. I'd like to be back in today's size 4 - 6.

    I'm pretty disciplined with logging (including weighing my food to the gram or ounces) and my food diary is open. I'll add a few of you and any of you are welcome to add me.

    Cheers!

    I'm nearly 24, 5'7" and 177lbs. I was about 170, but put on some summer fun pounds. Looking to ultimately to get to 155 and maintain it.

    I'm into to fitness and have a strong working knowledge of nutrition. Maintenance is my biggest struggle. I've lost and gain the same 10lbs more time than I can count.

    Being in my early 20s most of my social commitments involve food and drink which has caused me to be antisocial to achieve my goal in the past. I realized this wasn't working for me because once I'd achieve my goal id I go the opposite direction and gain it back. So I have focused my attention toward balance and maintenance and here we are!
