  • I've been lifting for a few years now, but am looking to increase weight and muscle (beyond just tone). Hoping to find other fit chicas to inspire and propel each other forward :) Feel free to add me. :)

  • Feel free to add! I struggle finding the energy/motivation to move during the work week. I hardly leave my desk, have an hour commute (one-way), and by the time I get home I never leave the couch. :/ Hoping to find friends to keep me accountable and cheer each other on.

  • Hi! I recently rejoined MFP. Starting at 1350, but planning to decrease to 1200 mid next week. Looking to add others in the 1200 goal area for support too. :)
