Looking for friends my height: 5'8" and in their 30's.
I only have a few last pounds to go and then it is mainly just maintenance. Would be great to have friends who are same height and similar in age. I am 33 years old and 5'8". I think it would be interesting to compare notes and keep tabs on each other when so similar in stats.

jiggly - don't understand!
Hi! Im 5'5 and really small framed (my wrists are like toothpicks). I'm about 124 right now and I've got really jiggly arms and legs. I just saw a photo of myself running and I looked so ripple-y (not in a good way). I've had my body fat tested and it's like 20%, which isn't that high. But I see people much bigger than me…

New, 50 yrs old and 5kg to lose
Hi all. I have finally faced the fact that I will never be the same weight I was at 20! For the past two years I have been working on my fitness and nutrition (sort of) and have gained instead of losing. So time to be realistic and aim to be fit, strong and healthy. I need inspiration and I need to be committed. :wink:

New to this group and seeking advice!
Hi ladies! I've been on MFP for years but just got into it in January, trying to get in better shape and lead a healthier lifestyle overall. I have had a tough time losing weight, I got caught up in the 1200 calories a day crap and have literally been trying variations of that since January. I also was working out 5-6 days…

Introduction
Hi I am brand new to site. Age 46, married and mom of three. I am 5'9" and 145 lbs, looking to get back down to 135. I have weighed much less than that but find 135 to be balance between feeling good (weighing enough) and being comfortable with size (not weighing too much). I have very slowly gained ten pounds the last 10…

Post baby (sort of) and motivated (sort of)
I had my son about 7 months ago and I had been depending on bf-ing to help me lose weight and now that I'm done with that, it's coming back on so I was referred to myfitnesspal and what a wake up call!! Not only was I totally overeating my calories but I hadn't been exercising. So it's my first week and I know it's…

Lower end of "healthy" BMI?
Any girls here trying to get to the lowest (or below, perhaps) weight on their BMI? I've got 17 lbs to lose to reach that, and I'm really hoping I can. I was just curious if there are others aiming lower than normal out there and if so, how many calories are you girls eating? I'm trying to stay below 1250 per day, but I do…

This is Probably the Trillionth "BELLY" Post
Hi. Well, here it is: I hate my belly. Apparently, it loves the you-know-what outta me, because it just refuses to let me go. I've done the research, I've asked the questions, I drink water, cut down on sodium, workout with weights, cardio, circuit training...you name it. I don't "only" do crunches. I make sure I get…

Can an overweight person can be small framed?
I was told that if you wrap your wrists around your fingers, it can tel you what bone structure you are. http://www.livestrong.com/article/219938-how-to-know-your-body-frame/ I've always been a big girl for my age as a child. When I was a teen I was in the 230s about 235 I think. I use to be really chubby. Now I'm down to…

In good shape and STILL see results with 30DS?
Hi girls, I did the first day of 30DS this morning and I have to say...I was a little underwhelmed... I am in ok shape - I do body pump and kettlebell classes 3 times a week and run 2-3 times a week. I was expecting 30ds to be TOUGH based on what I read on here but for me it wasn't. Has anyone still had/seen results doing…

Petty people!
Need to vent about people who never could acknowledge or want to hear about my working out and fun and new classes I take because they were jealous that they were lazy and very overweight. With me not having a ton of weight to lose, or most people thinking I'm very skinny when I just know how to dress to not accentuate my…

How can I tell what body frame I am?
I use to be heavier at 220lbs and now I'm down to 194lbs still, yay! =) I'm 68 inches tall (5'8") and a female. My arm are getting slimmer and toner. I'm not muscular though. I have thin wrists and ankles. I know I'm not a small, but I'm guessing I'm medium. I'm not exactly sure. How can I tell? Also, I'm a spoon/pear…

New to Group
It's awesome to find a group like this. I find it hard to talk about fitness and my overall feelings to other women who see me and assume I'm full of myself. I want to be able to feel comfortable talking about my concerns without the looks of "whatever". I'm 5'2 but I round myself up to 5'3, weigh 114. I don't want to be…

different after babies
I had my son a year ago. Since then, Ive been down to my ideal weight. Ive been going to the gym and working my butt off. Im seeing results but Im not seeing the lean and tone look that I use to have. Instead, Im gaining bulky muscle. Is this just because my baby has stretched me to oblivion and my muscles arent the same…

Bulk of calories in evening
Hi ladies! I have two or three snack-sized meals (150 cal or so) during the day and have a good, satisfying dinner. I find it's easier to tough it out during the day when I have distractions at work, and I drink lots of water, and I have a good dinner to look forward to. Generally I also have calories left for a snack in…

Hard sticking to my diet with my husband
I am not being that strict with my diet, but I am avoiding eating out as much as I can. I can avoid temptation, unless it is offered to me. And my husband likes to offer it. He is supposed to be eating healthy with me, but he is not taking it that serious. We were in town yesterday and he wanted to stop at McDonalds for a…
