I am 23 years old, have been pretty chubby for awhile, though that is getting better. I was 215, now I'm about 180, but I just need some people in my cheering section. I'm pretty good at motivating, too, so I'll do the same for you. Isn't that ridiculous? We've can cheer some one else on, but can only put ourselves down (generally)? Anyways, I'm looking for people to stay in close contact, like every day or so. I'm 5'10'', and would like to weigh about 135 (I have a smallish build.) Anyone interested?

    Hey girl! I am 25 and want to get to about the same weight. I am 147 right now and trying to break down the last of it. I really just started doing this regularly for about two weeks now. My calories are around 1200. Don't know if that fits you or not. :)

    You and I are practically twins :laugh: but you're bit taller (and younger :tongue: ). I started at 215 at my highest, I'm down to 184. I'm about 5'8" and shooting for 140-145 :happy: I'll join in...

    I was just getting ready to post something just like this. I am been super stressed lately and have fallen off of the wagon just a little. I need someone to talk to everyday to keep me in check. I have tried this with my fiance and family but I just feel like they are nagging on me and not helping. They haven't been in this position like I am.
    I am 21 years old and have struggling with my weight on and off since I was in 4th grade (honestly) I started out at 151 in August 2008 and am now around 135. My overall goal is 120. I would love to be your buddy. I am great at motivating too. Send me a message here or email me at chevalier_jacqueline@yahoo.com

    Hey everybody! How's your morning going? Mine is fantastic. I weighed myself, and since last week, I've lost two pounds! I was 180, now am 178. So that means only 43 pounds or so to go! Woo-hoo!
