    Ok, I will try this challenge :# I am 31, will be 32 in March, so this is perfect timing. Current weight 237lbs, I gained all my weight back after gastric bypass in 2006 :\ I didn't get down too low (only to about 155lbs lowest), so I feel like it was a waste. I am only 5'3" so I would like to get down to 130lbs at some point! But I was very happy at 155lbs. see you next Monday to weigh in :)

    It's great that you're all so supportive towards each other. I'm only 8 pounds from my target weight, and Myfitnesspal (and other websites I've checked on) say I should only go with .9 a week.. So I won't be joining but I'm rooting for you all!

    Just what I need, thank you!

    I'm Stacey, 35 for a couple more weeks and was 200 as of Sunday, that's my weigh day so I'll be logging in then. I gained back a good bit of what I lost falling off the wagon and not counting calories for about 7 months so I'm picking up and just trying to hold myself to small goals. 10# challenges do stack up.

    Goal weight, depending on how I feel and how clothes fit I have some wiggle room. Right now I'm aiming for 60-80lbs off depending on body composition and fat %. I looked at the "suggested" weights for my height and can't say I agree so we'll just see what works best

    I put dinner in the crockpot before work so I'm not tempted to eat everything in reach when I get home. I'm making Crockpot Chicken Taco Chili from Skinnytaste.com. It's AMAZING! I discovered last night that on the MFP "recipes" section, you can copy and paste the link to the website, and it will automatically add all the ingredients for you and calculate the calories and nutrients based on the serving size you choose. So easy.

    I never knew the recipe function did this. I will have to try it. Thanks! :flowerforyou:

    Hello all!

    I'm in too!
    My name is Jess
    I will be 35 at the end of Feb. So that's a great goal for me!
    I'm 4' 11" I weigh 165. Down from 183. My ultimate goal weight is 125 but 150 is my next goal.
    I was doing good but have done a major face plant for several months. But I'm ready to get going again. My new size 8 pants have gotten tight. I just don't feel comfortable in my own skin or clothes anymore and need to do something about it!

    Hi

    My name is Cindy. I'm 34 years old. This is great because I need motivation to remain committed to my diet. I am active and workout a lot but do not eat as I should. I am 5'0 and about 180... My big goal is to be 130, strong and healthy!!

    Had a rough couple of days, on Monday after my weigh in I got some bad news and then some more bad news later on and I just started piling on the carbs.

    Didn't go TOO crazy but I went over my daily by about 350 cals, then today (Tuesday) I got really sick and couldn't keep anything down. So by night fall (when my tummy calmed down) I was famished and just piled on some more carbs.

    But fact is tomorrow, I'm going to get up and go back on my diet and keep plugging cause that's what you do. So I guess this is just a (not so gentle) reminder to keep on going. You may mess up but tomorrow is another opportunity to get back on track.

    have a nice evening all :wink:

    This is a great idea. I've not done a challenge before! I am having a rough time motivating myself this past winter. I was laid off from work and it has really gotten me down. Just when I have more time to work out I find myself doing so less and less. I'm 35, 5'4", and 136 lbs, want to be down to 122 by May to compete in a weight lifting competition. That's ambitious in a short time frame so I need all the help I can get!!!

    Count me in. I re-joined MFP in Dec. and have lost 10 lbs. Current weaight is 195 I'm 5'6'' and 56 years old. Mar. 1st would be a great date for the next 10 lbs to leave.

    I'm pretty good at logging and now doing yoga 2x week.

    I need more exercise on other days to make my weight shift.

    Just found this group. I'm at the end of my weight loss effort, and have that stuck-like-glue 4 to 5 kilos to ditch. I weighed 61 kilos on Monday, so I would love to weigh 57 (my ideal weight) by March 1.

    I've changed up my exercise regime because I swear I can't eat much less :( I hate that the less I weigh, the less I can eat.

    I log just about every day, and would be happy to be friends with anyone in this group.

    Cheers from Deb in Melbourne, Australia.

    Joined in yesterday. Feeling super defeated this morning. Weighted 197 went I left for vacation on Christmas day. Havnt weighted myself since been doing fitness pal for 13 days today and staying in my goals. Weighted this morning and its 197. Feel like I've been running and haven't gotten anywhere. I don't know how much I weighed when I got home. Need some motivation for sure.

    I totally understand I was doing so well, losing steadily and looking good the vacation and travel I feel a bit defeated myself. I seem to have lost my focus and am up 5 lbs. Really hoping this additional accountability will help. Was not good last night so need to reboot today!
