    Hey! I just made a group for this. I called it, "20 Pounds or Less Club." I thought that this would be an easily accessible way to help each other out. Join us!

    I started out needing to lose 20 pounds which is a lot when you are 5 ft 2 and over 50. I have walked the weight off since last August and switched to a healthy foods diet. My daughter introduced me to this website a few weeks ago and I love it! I have about 5 more lbs to go but need to start toning. A friend of mine gave me the New York City Ballet workout which is the best thing to tighten abdomen muscles. Ballet exercises are really great for moms and people wanting to reclaim their youthful figures. I will start with 5 minutes a day or so and see what happens.

    Your post sums up exact what I'm aiming to do - I was thinking about starting a similar thread but you put it way better than I would have!

    Well, TBH, losing 25lb would be better for me, but all the rest . .. me too!

    I would like to know more about CLA and the safflower oil too. I'm always interested in anything natural to make me feel better!

    This is me too, I want to lose about 15 pounds and I definitely want to tone up and get healthier. I've put on the weight over the last two years so I'm fairly confident of getting back to my former weight, but this time I want to lose the stomach flab. Progress is good so far!

    While I'm still in the normal range for my height I want to get back down to the lower end of the range.

    Hi, I just joined back on MFP after a very long hiatus, and of course gained all my weight back, as well... :( i need to lose a minimum of 10 lbs, but would like to lose 15 - 20. I'm currently about 135 lbs, and would love my happy weight to hover around 120.

    I'll go look for the group...

    I am definitely in! I want to loose the rest of my belly fat pooch (I had a CS when I had my daughter), the rest of my wonderful love handles, and tone up my jiggly thighs! I would love to lose 15-20 more pounds! I'M IN!!!! :happy:

    That sums up what my goals are too!!!
    I'm in as well!

    How's everyone doing?

    I had two travel days, and had soy sauce, which throws my numbers off

    Working out to make up for those two days

    Only 16 more pounds to go

    So, I committed myself to losing the last 16 pounds on December 11, 2011

    Here's what I do

    Log all my food
    Have a 1,000 cal deficit on my body media fit(missed a few)
    journal

    In December I biked 221.32 miles, 436 minutes on the trampoline, 65 minutes on the gazelle, 20 minutes on the elliptical, 5 minutes rowing, walked 1.5 miles.

    In January, I biked 160 miles, 608 minutes on the trampoline and did the six pack DVD once

    This got me to lose about 6 pounds
