I am a 30 year old wife of 10 years. I have a 5 year old and a 20 month old. My husband is senior staff for a college ministry at Purdue. I am a part time massage therapist and he does graphic design on the side. My heart is to live as authentically as possible. I have just moved to Indiana, so I feel this is an opportunity to start over. I want to learn to listen to others more and love people with everything I am. Along the way I feel a conviction to take better care of the body he has given me.

Well I just turned 29 on May 21, 2007. I have been married for 8 years and have 2 children, Haiden 7, and Alayna 16 months. I currently weigh about 205 lbs. If I could lose 50 lbs. I would be exstactic and I do believe it is a realistic goal. I should pobably aim for more of a loss, but I don't want to set myself up to fail.

I am a 25 yr old female living in Vancouver, BC. I live with my bf and my little puppy. I moved to Vancouver in January 2006 from Ottawa, ON. I slowly started gaining weight in my last year of high school 6 yrs ago...It has been creeping its way up from 140 lbs (approx). I had an bad injury in Dec 05, and had to stop working out for about 8 months...that time is now up (for a long time now).

I am a 27 year old mom of two. My daughter is 11 and my son is 4. I work full time with Mentally challenged individuals in an adult family home. This makes eating healthy very challanging, because I have to cook what someone else puts on the menu and it is not usually the most healthy of foods.

I am 30yrs old mother of 2 girls ages 5 and 12. My 12 yr old has picked up my bad habits and has gained alot of weight along with myself throughout the years. I would like to show her a more healtheir life style. The hardest part is cont to motivate myself along with my dtr. However I know being more persistent will make all the difference! Plus I can't fail her! Her father and I both have a family hx of heart disease, diabetis, HBP, high chol and stroke. I had gestational diabetes when pregnant with my 5yr old and HBP when pregnant with my 12yr old. I know we can do this with lifestyle changes made!

Hi, I'm 27 years old, single, and I live in Seattle. Sort of. I'm a human performance consultant who travels about 98% of the time for work. I think I spend as much time on planes as many flight attendants! I love what I do for work, and I enjoy traveling to new places and taking scenic photos as well. I enjoy music, reading short stories, home organization / decor and SLEEPING!
I am ashamed to admit how much I've let the travel schedule, long work hours and constant eating out pile on the pounds. I have gained 60+ pounds over the past 18 months and can no longer even squeeze into my jeans or comfortably button many dress shirts.

I just turned 24 and have put on 57 lbs since I turned 20, and 37 lbs since my pregnancy. It's so hard for me to lose weight because I feel sometimes like I don't have the will power. I just love sweets :( and I hate working out....So here I am hoping that maybe I can get some support and motivation!

I am a 235 lb 25 yr Old Married Self Employed Consultant. I have 2 girls 15 months apart 1yr Aeris and 2yr Trinity. I have not gained any weight through both pregnancies., I'm on Depo and I think that may have contributed to the 25lbs I gained over the last 2 years (I did not gain weight during my pregnancies). And I already had a goal of 50lbs before the babies...so now is the time! Hopefully on this stretch I dont get PREGNANT!

I'm about to turn 29 in a few weeks. I have been at this weight before and lost 80lbs. Over the last 5 years I've been putting all the weight back on. I have a boyfriend (been together for 4 years) and I have been working at a desk job for the last year. Both the boyfriend and the desk job have added to my waist line. I think it's time to change.

I'm 25, married, and don't have any kids. I started gaining weight when I first met my husband. For the longest time I blamed the weight gain on him b/c I saw it as, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be like this(we ate out ALL the time). About a year ago(we've been together 5.5yrs...married for 2.5 of them) I finally stopped blaming him. It took me this long to get off my ass, but I guess it's better late than never. :oD

I'm 29 and single. I have gained back the 50 lbs I lost 10 years ago--and more! I can't believe it has been 10 years already. I teach at a community college. I have horrible eating habits--I often skip breakfast, don't eat on campus all day (9am-9pm) and then get home and eat. I am hoping to eat breakfast regularly, eat more, exercise more and work less.

I'm a 26 single girl trapped in a body I can't stand. There is so much I want to do with my life and so much I miss out on all because I’m overweight and uncomfortable with the person I’ve become… I was such an active, happy and motivated person but about 6 years ago my life was turned upside down. I put on 60 lbs in just a few short months and then gained another 40 about 3 years ago. Struggles with depression and self confidence have allowed me to literally eat my emotions trying to escape myself. But then 5 months ago I told myself enough was enough and I started my new life. Over the last 5 months I’ve lost (and managed to keep it off) 37 lbs but I need an outlet, a support system to keep me on the right track and someone to kick me when I stray.

I'm a 20 year-old, atypical OC girl who loves import cars. Currently attending UC Berkeley, majoring in International Political Economy. Go Bears! Stressing about midterms and papers seriously takes a toll on overall health and fitness. Managed to lose 20lbs my freshman year, but have since hit the Sophomore Slump and gained it all back plus more.

I am 29 years old with a charming 14 month old daughter. I want to be a role model for her. Right now, I'm not setting a very good example with my sedentary lifestyle. I'm ashamed that when I walk up the stairs I'm out of breath and that I'm embarrassed to run around or wear a bathing suit because of the way I look and feel. I don't feel that these are the values that I want to instill upon my daughter. I live in Massachusetts, married to my best friend for 3 years (together for 8). We recently moved to a small town with more access to all things active and I'm ready to take advantage! It's time for change!

I've always seen myself as a big girl even when I wasn't as a teenager. "Harmless" comments from others has cemented that self image. I like to have fun but sometimes I choose not to hang out or say something because I don't want to be noticed.
I am ready to be myself and not be afraid of everyone looking at my body instead of me.
On a more personal note: I am a science teacher, I have a great husband, one fuzzy bunny and we will be teaching abroad in a month.

I am 25 years old and i need to get my life together. I feel like weight is a major source of discontent in my life, and I want to gain control. Winning this struggle will mean (in my opinion) that I can do anything! I know this will take strength and endurance, and I am up for the challenge!
