Looking for friends with similar goals or without!

Hey folks! I'm a 21 year old married mother to the best little boy in the world! (He'll be 2 in May.)

I'm currently 5'8" and the last I weighed myself, I was 184.5 pounds. I'm looking to drop 40 pounds which will put me at just under the weight I was before I got pregnant. :smile: I want to be strong and healthy and feel good about myself, and have the energy to run around with my son! I'm carting around quite a bit of extra weight, it makes it hard to keep up!

I'd like to make friends with people who are supportive and active and will challenge me -- in return I will do the same for you! :drinker:

    Hey there, i am 18 and we both have the same goal to lose around 35-40 lbs as my main goal mainly because im the only guy in my house and i need to be healthier in order for me to help both my mother and my sister. Its not only about losing it for me its also about showing i can be the man of the house by becoming stronger and more motivational. As of today my weight is 215 and aiming for 180 or less. I personally try to motivate people when they ask... faeel free to dd me

    Hello, I'm a 31yo married father of two. I am looking to drop about 70lbs by next thanksgiving. I have been using this fitness pal for about six months now(not consecutively) but keep falling off the wagon. I quit smoking on independence day and gained nearly 20lbs so that was a real bummer but I have pretty much leveled out and have been hitting the gym early in the morning before work. The scale is not moving though. I will say that I feel a million times better though. It is always nice to have other people around to motivate or support you.
