Let's lose 25-35 lbs together and get sexy!!!

Hi guys, I'm Brittany. My whole life I've struggled with weight. At my lowest I was 135 (about 5 years ago, after dieting and losing 55 lbs.). Now I'm back up, as of today, to 166. I'd like to be somewhere in the 128-135 range, or just when I feel great about myself. I hear all the time "you have a gorgeous face" blah blah blah. My sister (who can literally eat anything she wants and has never been over 120 lbs) even said to me 2 years ago "you would be breathtaking...if you lost 30 pounds." ummmm, thanks? Who says that? Lol...only a sister I guess haha. Anywho, I'm looking for other women who are sick and tired of being the cute fat girl. Let's support each other in this quest to happiness!

    Lol yea I dont want to be the "cute fat girl" anymore! Count me in!
  • Well, not only sisters say that! I've heard that messed up crunk before too! :huh:

    Anyway... it may take me more than 35 lbs, but I'm all about getting my sexy beast mode on, girl.

    I have quite a few friends already, but I'm always up for making more. Feel free to add me if you like.

    You had me at "Get Sexy!!!"

    They say "you are what you eat", but I don't recall having any sexy beasts today! :-P
  • lets dooo itttt!
  • Well, well, well.... I knew there were plenty of other women who felt my pain. Let's show all those people who said those "beauty" compliments who's boss!! And the next time they see you (at your goal weight mind you lol) and then feel the need to tell you how beautiful you are now, say "I'm sexy and I know it!!!!" haha.


    I'd also like to say thanks to everyone who responded. I really do feel like support and motivation are 2 of the biggest factors in committing to changing our bodies. I look forward to your feedback and support and you will get plenty of mine :)

    LET'S GET SEXY!!!!!!!
  • Sounds like an awesome plan, I definately would love to be in a support group to help motivate me.:happy:
  • Count me in :)

    Hi Brittany (and everyone else),

    Having been the type of girl who could eat anything and not put on weight right up to my mid-twenties it has come as quite a shock to realise that I'm one of the biggest out of my group of girlfriends. I'm only looking to lose 25-30lbs but it's been quite a struggle on my own and without any motivation.

    Would definatley like to link up and lose weight as part of a group so count me in...
  • Hi Sarah,

    Just added you :) I was exactly the same until my mid twenties I could eat whatever I wanted but now apparantly not so much :laugh:

    day 3 of 30DS shred tonight
  • HI all,

    I'm ready to be on board with you girls!!
    I'm at my highest weight ever - 235 (ugh hate that number).
    I got married and gained 35llbs - terrible, but I'm ready to lose the weight, get healthy and get back to my beautiful self.
    My overall goal is 180 - but first i need to start with these 35 llbs!!

    My sister is my best friend and loves to help me out and encourage me. She is tall and thin and loves to work out - lucky her!!
    Yet I don't have any heavy friends to do this with so you girls are definitely needed!!

    Let's do this!!

    Hello Ladies,

    I also would like to join you in this life change journey, I started to gain the weight in high school and feel that I have carried it for way too long... On My 32th bday in March I decided that no more was I gonna be heavy and with the motivation of my brother who has lost 65 lbs since December and his wife who has also lost 42 lbs as well. Thus far I have learned that It is definitely very challenging training your mind to planning your diet and workout routine especially learning how to set time for your self.... So, Ladies I am with you!!!! and feel free to add me as well...

    Hello Ladies,

    Well I have been off my "myfitnesspal" since prior to Christmas, before that I was only 12 lbs from my ideal "Sexy" self. Well I gained 5 lbs back, that might not seem like a lot to my hubby but to me it just looks from my reflection in the mirror to be too much to take in at once.

    So I am going back to the program and as well getting back into exercising. I now have 18 lbs to go, 20 would be wonderful...but baby steps first.

    So here I am wanting to "get sexy" will all you wonderful women that need a bit of encouragement...here we go.

    I'm in! I was the same as the two Sarahs, could eat anything (and did!) until I hit my mid/late 20s and have been up and down ever since and being where I'm at and having just turned 40, I want it off!!!!

    My sis never said anything about my weight, but the popular comment from others was "you're so pretty, you could get a guy if you just lost weight..." Don't think my weight necessarily has anything to do with why I still haven't gotten a guy (after all there are some guys out there that like curvy girls)

    Me too, me too! 41 and 3 kiddos later, I've got an extra 25 that I'm carrying around and ready to get rid of....FOREVER!!!
  • I have always been the skinny one. Until after having kids. Losing weight is hard and it sucks. :) I was in a bar with friends one day and someone actually referred to me as the big girl. I looked behind myself to see who she was talking to... I couldn't believe it...:explode: It's been 5 years and I still haven't lost the weight. I'm with you... lets do this!

    I'm in the same boat as a lot of you in my mid twenties and after having a child my metabolism just isn't the same! I feel like I work out and eat right but maybe I'm just not doing enough because I haven't lost much weight in the past month I've been working on it... Any suggestions are WELCOME! I am DYING to lose 35+ lbs... I'm so glad there are people who are with me in this journey! Please feel free to add me :)

    I'm the same way! I too was down to 135 last summer, and put every pound back on. At 5'4" I got back up to 173. I'm ready for my outer fabulosity to match my inner fabulosity! I want to be the hot girl everyone looks at, not the overly curvy girl with the good personality. I'm going on my first REAL vacation (at 33!) in October, and my goal is to wear a bikini without being afraid.

    Let's get sexy!!!!! (feel free to add me!)
