hi, my name is katie and i just joined 3fatchicks.com...I have been struggling with my weight for about 2 years now. I gained about 50+ lbs in the past 2 years and now I need to lose it. I am 5'5 and weight 197. My goal is 140, and Im hoping to lose 2 lbs a week...my goal by July is to be able to look slim and trim and healthy at the beach (that is kind of my incentive). I am looking for a buddy to exchange emails and daily eating / exercising habits with....someone who can keep me motivated while i keep them motivated as well. I welcome anyone of any age/sex so please reply to my post or email me at [email protected]! I also decided to participate in the Valentines day challenge, and I want to lose 8-10 lbs by then! Hope you all have a great day!
I'm new here also! I'm 5'4" and need to lose about 80 lbs total, though I'm breaking it up in smaller increments so I don't get overwhelmed. I am 40 years old with two boys in school. I would also like to look good at the beach this summer. This past summer, I spent most of the time on our vacation sitting in my chair covered up from head to toe snacking instead of having fun. We also have a neighborhood pool that really tests your confidence - nothing like seeing all of your neighbors who have successfully lost the weight when you're fatter than ever!! I am on a reduced calorie eating plan (notice I didn't say "diet"), and am considering joining Curves - I have an appointment with them this Friday.
If anyone wants to buddy up with me, I'd love to hear from you.
I have just started my diet, it has been about 6 days now and i have list 3.5 lbs. I am trying to lose a total of 100 lbs. I would like to buddy up with you if interested. The things i really need to work on are:
exercising
drinking all of my 8 glasses of water
continuing to eat right and meet my calorie intake
not eating dinner so late
looking for support
