    Hello, everyone. I would love to be a part of this group! I had lost 30 lbs 5 years ago using MFP, but over the past year have put on about 15. This was because I stopped tracking and exercising. So, today I am making the choice to get back to it and lose 20 lbs by Easter.
    CW: 183.4
    Challege GW: 160

    I broke my arm 3 weeks ago, so any weight lifting, push-ups, yoga using my hands for support, or wild jumping are out for quite some time. I plan to get a fitbit and start walking and doing yoga moves that don't require my arms to bear weight. I teach at a college, and our 2 week Christmas break started today. So, I have until Jan 5 to really get into a good pattern of eating right, tracking, and exercising. Happy to be here!

    SW 191.8
    CW 178.8
    GW 158.8 (20 lbs.) if I reach 160 I will be happy. :D

    Hi Everyone,

    I just got on the scale this morning and it wasn't pretty. :s I am up 1.2 pounds so you can add l.2 to the 178.8 and that is where I am. I am giving myself two weeks before I seriously start here after the holidays. I will keep weighing myself but might not report it until January. Keep up the good work everyone!!!! I will check in from time to time.

    Shirley

    There is actually a group that is started for the 20 lbs by Easter Challenge. I did the 20 lbs by Christmas group and she started another challenge for Easter. You might want to check it out.

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/100881-drop-20-by-easter-2015-starts-jan-1st

    dbanks - I was also in the Christmas Challenge but backed out. I personally found it too ridged. I also did the challenges every week and since I am one of the older gals they were getting too challenging for me so I had to drop out. This challenge here is very casual and there are no Excel spreadsheets to enter. Come and join us if you would like.

    Many small things add up to big things. New routine. Every time I use the restroom i will do 10 squats. If I am drinking the amount of water I SHOULD be drinking I will be getting a lot of squats completed in a day :)

    Why must people bring in baked goods? I know they ment to be kind, but the muffins are calling my name.

    The muffins will taste good temporarily but the rush you get from resisting will far outweigh the instant gratification and extra work to burn off those the calories!
