2017 brides!
Hello all! I'm looking for other 2017 brides to follow. I'm currently 163 pounds, 5'8", looking to lose about 20 pounds. I use a FitBit Charge, RunKeeper, and MFP. I like running, swimming, and tennis. I have a gym membership but I think I'm switching gyms soon, so we'll see what happens with that.

Looking to lose 10+ by September 1.
Hello all! I'm setting a summer goal for myself and I'm looking for people who can help motivate me. I'm currently 162 pounds looking to get down to 150 pounds by September 1. I'm 5'8" and (almost) 24 years old, so someone similar to me would be good! I'm a teacher during the school year and a swim instructor at a camp…

Couch to 5k - Starting 02/23/15
I'm looking for people to friend on here who are also looking to train using the C25k running plan. I already completed C25k once (last spring) and jogged/walked my first 5k on July 4th at 39:26. I'm aiming to get under 35:00 at the same annual 5k July 4th 2015! Since the summer I haven't gotten much running in and I…

FitBit Charge vs. Charge HR?
I currently have a FitBit flex that I got last year for Christmas. It's been great and I've loved having it as I'm getting into running, but I feel like I need something more. The Charge recently came out but I know the Charge HR will be out soon with the heart rate monitor. I know this might sound really stupid, but…

Any other brides-to-be need motivation/support?!
I recently got engaged! I've already been working on getting fit, but having to try on dresses is definitely some added motivation. Hopefully this will be the kick in the butt that I need to really commit to my work outs! Any other newly-engaged ladies out there? I'm aiming to lose some weight before I start looking at…

Brides 2017
Hello and congrats! I figured I'd start this for any other 2017 brides-to-be to find people with similar goals to connect and motivate each other! I got engaged 2 weeks ago and while I've been working out for a few months already, the idea of trying on dresses has me even more motivated. We've set a wedding date of May…

Spinning Classes?
Does anyone on here have a good/bad experience with spin classes? The gym I go to offers a bunch of classes (for free!) and that's one that I think I'm going to try. I typically like to do cardio stuff (running and swimming) and I'm looking for a low-impact activity that will still give me a work-out that feels "worth it".…

Anyone doing each week twice?
I completed C25k for my first time in May (ran/walked my first 5k in July with a 39:24 finish) and I haven't gone running much since. I'm looking to start for my second time this upcoming week, but I plan to do each week twice. Is anyone else currently doing that or planning to do that? I'm aiming to run my next 5k at…

Looking for new runners (C25k) to follow!
I'm very new to running; in the spring I did the Couch-to-5k program and I ran my first 5k in July. I'm looking to do C25k again (I stopped running after my first 5k and want to start again) and I'm looking for other people just starting out. I plan to do each week twice to give myself time to work on speed. Anyone else…

People to follow? 140 lb goal, runners/swimmers, etc.
Hello! I'm looking for people who have similar goals/interests and actively use the MFP app to follow. I'm 23 years old, started at 162 lbs, down to 157 lbs, looking to get down to 140 lbs. I'm 5'8". I've been using the app pretty consistently for about a year. I like swimming (I'm a swim instructor) and running (running…

Reasonable body fat percentage goal?
As of today I'm 5'8", 156.6 pounds, and have 27% body fat. Overall I think I wanna shoot for 150lbs by the end of the year (ultimately 140) but I was wondering what a reasonable percent body fat might be. The trainer at the gym who checked my percent body fat said 27% is a bit high but I don't know if he said that because…

Ultimate Goal
My ultimate goal is to be able to run a 5k in 30 minutes. How about you?

5'8". 162 lb starting weight. 140 lb goal.
I'm friends with a few people on here but everyone is either inconsistent or starving themselves. Is there anyone else with similar stats who is looking to lose a few pounds? I've lost 7 pounds so far, only 15 to go. I think I've been logging for almost 70 days straight now. I feel like I'd do a lot better if I was…
