anyone looking to lose 20 pds or less

I just joined today, I am 5'1" and 135. I would like to get back to 120. I need motivation and friends! A friend of mine talked me into getting a gym membership (which is something I would have never done on my own) and then she got pregnant, so I have totally lost my workout buddy! I was doing good for a while but then stopped going and have had a hard time getting motivated again. What has helped you all stay motivated??

I am trying to lose 8-10 (10 tops) I am 5'7" and I weigh 135. I know that seems like an ideal weight but I have been down to 125 and was skinny fat. After having 3 kids I'd love to even stay where I am and get rid of the fat. I am working hard but it is a long road.

If anyone wants to friend me, I am looking for support as well, I can give it as well as I receive it!

I am 5'3 and having been working on this sight for about three weeks! I started at 156. The first 6 pounds went off pretty easy! The last week has been slow!!!! I am diong zumba, 5 mile walk tape and been staying with in the calorie count. Getting flusterated, any ideas, I have always been able to shed the weight easy but am 52 and can not do alot because of back issues, any help would be greatly appreciated, Sus

I'm 5'10 and trying to lose 10-15 pounds....

I just lost 31 lbs in the last 5 months. Got to my initial "goal weight", and of course once I got there I wanted to lose a bit more, so now my goal is to lose 6-11 more lbs. People are saying I'm looking skinny but I'm not feeling it yet. I'm 5'7 and 146 now, wanting to be 140-135. Any less than that and I also start looking skeletal due to my large frame!

Hey there! I'm 5'7 and I have 10 kilos (about 20 pounds) to lose feel free to add me as a friend!

I'm 5' 4" and at about 125 lbs. Would love to get back to my weight of 115 that I had for about 25 years! Before menopause! I have never had this much trouble trying to lose weight! It's always come off within a week or two and now it's 5 weeks or more just to lose 5 lbs! I cannot believe it!

I'm 5'8", and started Jan 9th at 157. I'm now down to almost my goal weight of 145 (I was 145.6 my last weigh in). So I'm at a bit of a crossroads. I'm not hungry or deprived, I feel better when I eat better, there is nothing that I've 'cut out' of my diet, I really just changed my portions and eating out of boredom. So I plan to continue to track and stay within my calories. However, I don't really look any different, I'm still soft in all the same places. So now i need to get off my lazy behind and start putting in some effort. This will be the big challenge. So I'd be happy to lose more off the scale, but really I just need to start putting in some effort into losing some inches and toning up!

Feel free to friend me too

I started at 172 late last summer, lost 25 pounds over 10 weeks during a weight loss competition, and joined mfp at 145 in January. I'm down 3 more pounds and have 18 to go until I think I will be where I want to be. It's all hard and my will is weak, but I just keep on keeping on. Good luck to you. Add me if you would like.

I have about 28ish more pounds to lose since the last time I weighed myself. I'm 5'8 I was always in the 150s eating whatever I wanted as much as I wanted though I didn't have the body I wanted (flat tummy) I was fine but then it started creeping up and up to 155 then 158 then 163 when I finally decided enough is enough and I really need to eat better. Lowest I've been since 18 is 141 but I really want to be in the 130s so my goal is 130, maybe more if I tone up.
