In search of friends, support and motivation!
Hi all!
I'm Stephanie. I am 28, 5'0" and currently weigh 131.2 pounds. I am down 7.2 pounds, and working hard to seeing that number keep coming down! I find this site to be so helpful! I am in a wedding in September, and my first mini-goal is to get to a size I feel comfortable in my bridesmaid dress. The other bridesmaids in the wedding are extremely small! I have been dieting for almost 7 weeks (I am calling this a lifestyle change rather than a diet because that implies temporary). I have really stuck to good eating habits and I am learning a lot in the process (I still have A LOT to learn!). I completed a 4 week boot camp class with an amazing instructor, and I am beginning another 4 week class at a different facility Monday. I am just looking for some friends for support and motivation. I unfortunately don't have a workout buddy because everyone has different work schedules than I do, so I figured I could find some friends here :) I would love some tips and to know what has worked for others as well (exercise, foods, gadgets, recipes, etc). I am currently eating around 1200 calories a day, and I am hoping to attend boot camp 3-4 times a week or more. I am on myfitnesspal and have found it to be a fantastic tool! I get motivated when friends on there have a great food day or exercise day... makes me want to work harder. My username is s_taylor19 feel free to add me |
Hi Stephanie! I’m 5ft 2 and I’m 128.5. I’m new to all of this but I too am looking for support and motivation and a workout buddy if you’re interested.
I’ve never tried to lose weight before so I can’t help you much with “what works”. However I can tell you what I plan to do. I’m going to cut my calories down to 1300ish which would have me losing about a lb a week. I’m still growing (I’m 16) so I want to make sure I’m getting all the nutrients and stuff I need. I’m not enrolled in a boot camp or anything but I’m going to keep up my exercise band regime as week as well as taking walks/jogs to get me started out. I’ll have to check myfitnesspal out. Best of luck to you <3! |
