  • I wanted to be a novelist. I ended up an engineer so not even close.

  • I mostly do elliptical, biking, and use some the 5 or 6 weight machines in the tiny gym in our condo association building.

  • I'm in my early/mid twenties and just hit the scale at 198 today, I think that's close enough! I had been 230 for a number of years but was doing really well with weight loss on my own for a while but joined MFP after stalling since August. I'm getting married in September and hope to be down to 185 by then.

  • I'm 5'10" 198, hoping to get down to 170 which is what was recommended by my doctor. I'm heavier than the 160s, but also a lot taller than 5'7" so hopefully that's close enough!

  • For now I am just planning on exercising more and trying to actually log my calories every day. I used to be about 30 pounds heavier and am happy with how I look now but very unhappy with my fitness level.

  • Start planning early. I started trying to book things this September for our September 28th 2013 wedding and had trouble finding a venue we could both agree on with availability. We didn't have as much difficulty finding a photographer or caterer but the venue is key. You will be way ahead of most people with your fitness…

  • I just started on MFP today. I had lost 30 pounds ending about 6 months ago (and only gained 3 or 4 pounds back so far...) and need to get back on top of things to get ready for my wedding in September.

  • I'm 24 year old female also, just signed up today. I was using a similar site before but got frustrated with it. I lost 30 pounds between summer 2011 and summer 2012 but stopped losing when I moved in with my fiance in August (thankfully haven't gained it back though...). I need to lose 30 more pounds in order to be in the…
