I'm 51 years old, 5'7" tall and a dairy eating semi-vegetarian. I want to loose15-20 lbs, be a size 6 and look fabulous in a bikini, again. I'm a mompreneur turned emptynesteneur. I love martinis, social eating and cooking for family and friends. My concerns are reducing stress, keeping fit and healthy, as well as, postponing the onset of osteoarthritis and age related diseases. I love to ski, backpack and sail.

I'm an entrepreneur who built a great business in the past few years and lost my great figure in the process! I am turning 30 soon and it is really making me think about where I've been and where I want to go - I know that I don't want my 30s to be my "heavy years"! I have a fantastic husband and we have an adorable "poo-chon" (poodle-bichon mix). I adore both! I am also struggling with exercise options, as I have some physical limitations (knee and back injuries) that make it difficult!

I love life and I want to enjoy it more by being flexible, healthy and active. My life has been filled with roller coaster dieting and, ultimately, the inclines are always steeper than the declines. I have lost 40 lbs in the past year, have many more to go and look forward to finishing the final downhill slope of the end of the ride all the way to the end.

I have been an avid outdoor excercise person for most of my adult life. I am currently 38. Sports with which I have been active include flat-water kayaking, climbing [trad and multi-pitch in addition to top-roping and basic gym leads], sprint distance triathalons, camping, backpacking, light mountaineering. Sports that I currently do include nordic and alpine skiing, mountain biking, hiking, swimming, and yoga.
I used to engage in physical activities much more often than more recently... including going to the gym 4-5 times a week [I never realized that this was helping me stay fit!]

I am a certified personal trainer who works out of Shoreview. I have 2 children and one on the way. I find that I learn so much from my clients and others who struggle with their habits and self esteem. What works for one person may not work for another, but just maybe it does. Let's share ideas!

I'm a thirty-ish single gal who lives alone and works a 9-5 high-stress, low activity job (sitting at a desk 95% of the day). I'm a stress eater and I eat out for lunch pretty much every day. It feels like it's the only thing I can do to reduce the stress of my job - I have to get away and eat! I have access to two different gyms and have countless workout videos collecting dust in my house.

Hi there, until the last few years I was lucky with my weight and was able to maintain it pretty well. Well, until I got married!! I gained 20 pounds+ since I've been married and I haven't been able to lose weight on my own since.

I am 19 years old in college. A couple summers ago I was a whopping 141 lbs! Once I started college I was walking a lot more, had no money/time for snacks or regular meals and along with that, had a bunch of anxiety. I was then 119 lbs and LOVED IT! I cannot tell you how good it feels to lose weight, go shopping and feel great about yourself.
I am now 128 lbs and still gaining weight.. I want to stop my old habits and start a new/healthier lifestyle of a toned body and great food ...not sitting on the couch, eating ice cream.

I work full time, go to school full time, and volunteer in the time not taken up by school and work. I love movies and reading (both sedentary) which makes it tough to lose weight. I also have a high stress job that drives me to binge eat.

I'm a graphic designer. Doing anything creative gives me a natural high and joy and I am so grateful to be able to make a living off what I love. I am your cliche emotional eater, I was just diagnosed with hypoglycemia. It's bringing on new challenges and frustrations to my weight loss journey. With this you have to eat frequently or you feel sick and if you don't eat it can be dangerous for you. It makes me constantly feel tired and I usually feel nauseous or have a headache so getting to the gym is harder. I really need all the extra motivation I can get right now, and that's why I am here.
