Looking for pals, women 40ish with 20-30 pounds to lose who are new to Fitbit.

Title says it all!! Looking for women to start a group with where we can encourage each other. Fun women who want to check in/chat throughout the day  and keep the momentum going.

Marlinda, you almost just wrote my story. Everything you said is pretty much the same with me. I lost my weight on The 17 Day Diet with my sister (very similar to Atkins,) and MyFitnessPal. I went back to school, and it all piled back on and then some. If I am realistic on what my ideal weight would be at 46 years old, I have at least 25-30 lbs or more to lose. It has been impossible to lose even 2 lbs at this age! I also have three things that consistently throw me off track: I work 12 hr nightshifts, I crave sweets like nobodys business, and I enjoy red wine. I am going to set small goals and get to work again. Maybe we can motivate each other!

I am 42, with 17 more to lose.  So far I've lost 133 and have been struggling with those last 17!  I am new to Fitbit.. just got one as an early birthday gift.  🙂

Welcome ladies! I too have about 25 lbs to lose. My weight has never been stable and my dieting has hit extremes (more on that later). Looking forward to a motivating group. Add me as your friend and jeer/cheer as necessary. Happy New Year!
Jennifer

Well done LilyBeth all the best with the last 17 I am sure that you will have not problems shedding that.

I'm not new to fitbit but new to the community. I'm looking for friends.

I very new to this and I am having a difficult time learning what the lights mean and how to get it into different modes.  I am 66 years old and a retired elementary teacher.  I have 3 grown sons, 5 beautiful grandchildren, and a wonderful husband of 51 years.  I would also like to join the ladies group.

I'm in my 40's and would like to lose 25 lbs. & prevent putting on weight as I age. Would love the extra encouragement from other women like me. I am new to fitbit & have enjoyed the tracking of my steps. The last 2 days have been frustrating for me because my fitbit zip has started to randomly lose steps. Hopefully this isn't an issue going forward. I reset the battery, so we shall see. Best wishes to everyone! We can do this!!!!!

I'm new to fitbit and the community.  I am 44 and looking to lose 50 pounds this year.  This is the year to get it done.  So if other like minded people want to walk and encourage one another please add me.  I would love to do challeneges with each other to keep us motivated.  It is a sad shape to be doing this all along so please join me.

[zebrahamster]

Souns like a great idea. Count me in ladies.

Hello,
I'm a retired teacher. I tend to check in in the evenings as well. I have lost 26 pounds using fitness pal, but still have 40+ pounds to go. Would love to be your friend.

Hi I am 53 years old and I need to loose 30 pounds.  It has really gotten hard after I reached 50.  Hate to tell you, something to look forward to. But it can be done.  I am new to fitbit and I really enjoy this.  I was so good last week and lost 6 pounds and I was bad over weekend and gained  4 pounds back.  Today is a new start but I really am looking for people who understand how frustated I am.  I would love to join your group

[Crazymommy]

I've had my Fitbit for about seven months now. I'm still learning my way around the forums and Fitbit community. I am also on Myfitnesspal and have successfully lost 57 pounds. I still have more to lose, though.I would like to have more friends for accountablity. Feel free to add me!

Hi everyone. I'm turning 40 this year and have been on a weight loss journey for a year now. Am down 62 lbs and have 22 more to go. I have had a fitbit since January and love it. I would love to hear from others and share in our successes.

I'm in my 40s and having trouble as well. I'd like to lose at least 15#. April 15th was my goal day for that, but missed that one.

[HHP1173]

Count me in - I'm new as well!

[jjkm]

are you still in a search for challenge partners/pals?  If so, I am in!   I need to lose more than 30 but I am looking long term. I just started 2 weeks ago on fitbit
