I am 24 years old and getting married this October. I have lost about 15 pounds since August and trying to get the rest off! I could use some friends on here so we can support each other!

My wedding has come and gone, but three kiddos in five years has put me over the edge -- and I need to get serious about losing the weight.0 -
Hi there! I'm not getting married lol but I have about 40 lbs to go. I am currently on day 5 of p90x and trying to eat healthy. I have lost about 30 lbs since November.0

Have Lost 45... Did it in 6 months..... worked out 6 days a week and ate clean.... low on the processed food.... other than that just focused on one day at a time not a big goal.... today I will eat good.... today I will move...... good luck0

Yes, I'm trying to lose 40 pounds, just started today....I need help staying focused... I recently saw pictures of myself and couldn't believe that was me. I don't have any weddings or anything coming up, just want to live healthy & fit....!!0

Congrats!! To all the losers!! Exactly, one day at a time! Make good choices for today in what we eat and how we move.0

Anyone can feel free to add me as well. I've only been on here for about 4 days now, but I have lost 4 lbs!! I honestly don't think I would have stuck with it for just these 4 days if it weren't for MFP! It has helped me tremendously.0
-
Btw... I am not trying to lose the weight for the wedding. I am actually losing it so I can have healthier pregnancies later on.0

i've lost 37 so far but got 40ish more to go0 -
Yeah...right here...already lost 70 (39 since I joined MFP) but got about another 40 to go at the very least!!
Just coming to the finish of C25K which has really helped...it's fantastic being a 'proper' runner...but I do use the word 'runner' in the loosest possible sense!!
Feel free to add me if you're looking for support and are committed to achieving your goal

i am ...have run out of excuses. christmas chocs needing eaten, easter eggs etc. last week was my birthday
so now that all the meals out are over and choccies all gone, i`m going to get my head down
and concentrate on losing wieght. trouble is .....i don`t like excercise so it`ll need to be done by diet.
good luck everyone.....only started on wed so will either be happy or grumpy when i weigh in next week!:flowerforyou:0 -
I want to lose (now) about 50 (down 11 from my original goal). Anyone can feel free to add me as well
OP - sent a friend request0 -
Man, I'm having a hard time getting started....I'm so lazy!!!!!0

I'm trying to lose 40 pounds but I've gained 50 pounds over the past 20 years.
I've set my goal at 1 pound per week with moderate exercise three times per week and so far so good at 7 pounds in 7 weeks.
It took me a long time to gain the weight so devoting one year to losing it seems reasonable as I don't want to gain it back!0 -
Good for you!!! ...but isnt just a bonus you will look stunning at your wedding!?0
-
My goal was to lose 60. I have lost 23 so have about 40 left to lose. I would also like others on the same journey as myself. :-)0

I'm trying to lose 45 - 50 lbs. I've already lost 18 lbs and it's only been two months. I work out 3 - 5 days a week and try to keep my calories under 1600 per day. So far so good.
Add me if you like.0 -
