Hey everyone, I'm hoping to find more support(and possibly a buddy) here than I get from my family and friends! I'm hoping to lose 35lbs in 4 months starting tomorrow. Is that too much too soon? What are your thoughts? Thanks :D

That sounds like a reasonable goal, but make sure that it is achivable for your lifestyle. My goal is 35 pounds in three and a half months and I've got a little less then one month left and I've lost 26 of those pounds. I have a ways to go still so I'd be glad to be your buddy, if you'd like.

Welcome to 3FC by the way!!!

What is your current weight? I'm just asking because losing 35 pounds in 4 months all depends on your height, current weight, metabolism and among other things!

Welcome! I just joined here myself not too long ago!

shrinkingleah- Wow! That is very inspirational :) Congrats on the 26lbs! What is it that has been working so well for you?

Well, I have a 3month old daughter and a 4yo son and I'm lucky enough to stay at home with them. I'm 5'7" and currently weigh 185lbs. My metabolism has actually slowed down A LOT since I had my first. I used to run track in college and now I don't even feel like getting out of the house and I'm only 23! It's crazy how having kids totally turns you upside down :S

Hey There! I currently weigh 178 (177 yesterday;) ) and I started at 182. I want to lose 37 pounds totaly by August. That's five months. I would love to be your buddy on here- it's a great motivator to have someone hold you accountable:)
