YCC Find A Buddy (First Edition)

Hey babies!

Age: 17
Height: 5'3"
Weight: Started 135, I'm now 128 and fluctuating 1 or 2 pounds everyday.

Goal: 115ish. Numbers don't matter really I just want to be trimmed and look damn good in a bathing suit. And that could be easily fixed with a tan but I'm of the Irish variety so hardcore tans = skin cancer.

I'm vegetarian!
It's summer and I don't have a job!
I hate "exercizing" but I love activity... and yoga.. I LOVE yoga..

Is there anyone here who wouldn't mind trading measurements with me?

Age: 20

Height: 5'6

Weight: started May 1 at 158. June 16 at 152

Goal: 140 by September 1 or pretty much more muscle than fat.

Jennifer

Age:25

Ht: 5'3

Wt: 155

Goal: 127

Lexie

Age : 20

Height : 5'3

Weight : 145

Goal : 110

Name: 22

Current Weight: 217

Goal: 160 (by June 19, 2009)

Where: Rhode Island

I'm a college student. I'm not very active at all but I love to hang out. I just don't really have anyone to hang out with. Especially when all the people I know have different interests. Getting myself out of the house isn’t the issue, but let’s face it, most people find doing things like this easier when they have a buddy to do it with. My sisters are “big-boned” or “curvy” as well but aren’t as motivated as I am and my girlfriends aren’t “curvy”, aren’t close enough to see often or aren’t interested in the whole weight-loss thing.

I think it’s important that I do NOT have a problem with my size, weight nor the way my body looks with the exception of my thighs and stomach. My issue is in the fact that a size 16 isn’t the easiest to shop for. My clothes are either in the Jr.s Ms or Plus size department and I can never find the things I really want in either. I’m in between being the right size for any department and find I’m either too big or too small for any one section. So I started this weight loss goal to do 2 things. 1) Finally be able to go shopping in ONE specific department. 2) Finally be able to have clothes that go over my thighs, butt and hips AND fit my waist w/out a belt.

My Buddy/ Twin: Preferably another female close to my age or older that lives in Providence, Rhode Island or close to there so that we can actually exercise together and get to know each other. I’d like buddy I can actually form a friendship with. Doesn’t matter your weight goal but if we start and finish around the same time it’ll be all the more fun.

Goals: 124 lb? Getting toner, feeling good, building stamina and muscle!

I'm a girl in a healthy weight, who's not really looking to loose weight as much as getting into shape by exercising.

Anyone looking for a potential exercise buddy over the internet?

Goal Weight: 180 by Feb. (after that whatever's healthy)

 

About me: I'm going back to community college this fall. Right now I'm unemployed (hopefully that will change soon) so I have a lot of free time. I have problems with binge eating, and my BF works nights, so I'm looking for a buddy who will be online at night. I live in the Puget Sound area (WA) if that matters.

 

I'm interested in a buddy to keep each other motivated and share recipe and exercise ideas.

 The following message goes for all of you. Feel free to IM me!

I have a problem w/ binge eating too!! I'm available all night usually. Especially late night. If you have yahoo or AIM and you want to chat, let me know. Following are my screen names. You can just put those into an IM box and hit me up. Send me an email letting me know which one you'll be on because I am only on one at a time on my cell and it's usually Yahoo Messenger.

Age: 21

Height: 5'6"

Current Weight: 116lbs (moving into maintenance)

Goal Weight: 112~5lbs

some of my commitments:

• pescetarian
  
• healthy eating
• regular exercise (improving fitness)

looking for buddies who:

• have reached their goal weight and are currently/going to be maintaining
• want to improve their general fitness, tone (but not bulk) up, and are interested in doing something like train up for a marathon
• are interested in cooking, healthy eating, and love looking at food labels in the supermarket

age: 18

Height: 5'7"

current weight: 142

Goal weight: 125... or i guess 130.

ever since i got done with high school swimming i have become a bum! i need motivation and advice on how to eat healthier. when i decide to "diet" ( which ends up lasting about 2-3 days at a time) i go to the extremes and i know it is not balanced nor healthy.

Age: 20

Height: 5'5''

CW: 130

GW: 115-120

 

My weight in lbs doesn't matter as much to me as my overall health and ability to fit into my old clothing! I used to be 115 lbs before college, but I fell victim to the freshman/sophomore 15 and have been stuck at 130 for awhile. I would love some buddies to help get me through this!
