in Motivation and Support
Hi All! I have been using MFP for a little over three weeks and am looking to add some friends that are in a similar situation/body type/calorie restriction as I me. I think it'd be good to have a few women who are going through the same thing for motivation and support, by sharing food diaries to get new food ideas and to motivate each other by way of seeing each other's weight loss and exercise added!

The closer your situation, the better! I'm 5'3.5, currently 151lbs, and shooting for a first goal of 135. I'm female, in my early (almost mid) twenties, and am set to a 1200 calorie a day limit to lose 1.2 lbs a week. I like to enjoy drinking on the weekends (which is tough on 1200 calories!) and work out 3-4 days a week on a treadmill (30-40 minutes of walking uphill and jogging).

I don't have any MFP friends yet, so I'm not sure exactly how it works, but I'd love a few!

    Add me if you want... although I could be your mom!!!!

    I am 5'4", have a 20 year old, 18 year old, and 14 year old... and in better shape than they are!!

    I run 5-6 days a week, swim other other days I'm not running. I have lost about 50 lbs from my highest weight and want to lose another 15-20.

    don't limit your support... you could be motivated by someone polar opposite from you! good luck!!
