Looking for new friends in the south. I love biking, being a mother, student and wife.. its hard to get what i need for myself because I'm so busy. But I recently lost 30 lbs and looking to lose 30 more. I can encourge you and help you along your weightloss journey. I am looking for friends in Baton rouge who would maybe start a work out session, ride bikes, or exchange recipes, etc.. message me if looking for new friends or close by, happy counting everyone :)

    Hello from Prairieville. I stay pretty busy and usually don't get to do my exercising until after 10 PM, so I won't be much help in terms of an exercise buddy. But best of luck on your quest. 10 pounds down for me, 20 more to go!

    I think baton rouge is only 4-5hrs away!!!! Damn you army for putting me in a crappy town!!!
  • I am down here in little old Raceland. I am a mom of 2, a 4 year old and a 4 month old. Lost all the baby weight plus an additional 20. I dont want to be skinny, just a lil thick and flat. I so want to loose my baby belly (lower belly). Is that too much to ask. Ughhh. With 2 kids, work and going back to school, its so hard to get a good exercise routine in. Wish i could find something thats really effective with great results that only takes about 30 min. You guys have any suggestions.
  • Haha I know I use to be in the guard, my hubby is from Alexandria, I know exactly how u feel!!!

    I live in Denham Springs. I spend a lot of time in Baton Rouge -- I work there, my boyfriend lives there (I met him on MFP). He and I are runners, though I am thinking about doing a triathlon in July, so I might hop on a bike and in the pool soon for training.
