in Introduce Yourself
I really would like some friends that need to lose more than 40 pounds....I personally need to lose 63 pounds to get to my goal of 130. I have been away from FP for a while and plan to start 30 day shred today and just really hoping to find others that I can help motivate!!! I am 34 and a mommy to 3 kids....I am feeling discouraged and promised myself last night I would give it 30 days to focus only on eating and exercise then re-evaluate my results!

    Hi Serentity78,

    You have taken the first step. Once you have that motivation then you have got your foot in the door. Feel free to add me and will try and help as much as I can.:smile::smile:

    Hi there!
    I'm a 37yo mum of 2 aiming to lose around 60lbs. I came on here a few weeks ago, started, then stopped, then started again (properly) a week ago. I'm only 5 foot tall, so feel that the extra weight shows badly on me. I'm starting the C25K tomorrow, bought the new running shoes today ready!
    Add me if you like? We can motivate each other and compare notes :-)

    Feel free to add me as a friend. I think this site is great for a few reasons: food and exercise logging and the support of others in the same boat. I have about 70 pounds to lose so we are in the same range. I've been on here for almost a month and I've lost 6 pounds so far the last time I weighed.

    Feel free to add me as well!! I'm a mom of 2 both via c-section, so just like me, my stomach's a wreck!! it's taken me a good year to constantly go to the gym, and now i feel off if I don't get there. I have at least 60lbs to lose, so we can definitely support each other!!

    people say when your older it's harder...maybe in some ways, but if you want it bad enough YOU CAN DO IT!!

    I started out with 58 just to get to my first goal of 140, I'm now 38 pounds down and seeing great results :smile: One day at a time, sometimes one hour at a time, is the only way to do it! Don't lose sight of the bigger picture. Time will keep going by, and before you know it 6 months or a year will have passed. You can either be better off then, or not. Your choice!

    Kids...life..schedules! And the weight adds up. I am just getting started too and am the type that needs a concrete goal for motivation - so I gave myself one, 60 pounds by the end of the year and "Accoutability helps you grow" so I joined FP to help me track and stay motivated. If I see it, it's tangible... now if only my clothes would start fitting more loosely!

    I have about 50 more pounds to get off. I have lost 60 so far, so I am working hard to get the rest off. With my schooling, two kids in school, and still having to take care of the household things can get busy but I am trying to find new ways to manage everything and still get fit and fabulous.

    I recently had a child and am quite aware of c-sections ladies.....and the flabby stomach. I currently weight about 192...I reached 226 pounds during pregnancy....it was scary. I usually had stood at about 160 on average with fluctuation. I personally would love to reach the 130 mark. I feel as if its nearly impossible but I too need some people and motivation to get to that goal....so lets get 60 pounds together!? Add me if you can.

    I'm going to tell you ladies when i gave birth to my second child through c-section i weigh a whooping 310. But in a few years I did get done to 160. It is do-able ladies. I stomach wasn't a 6 pack but it wasnt to flabby either. good luck
