    Hi I'm Marisa I've joined this challenge as I want to lose weight and need the support. Over the 12 weeks I would like to lose 15lbs (5 every 4 weeks). Today I'm 212. That will take me under 200 which I know I haven't seen for 6 years if not longer

    Thanks for this

    Hi everyone, my name is Kara. This is my first online challenge :smile: I'm excited. I have been on this journey for 31 days, start weight 192.2. I had lost a total of 8 lbs but the gained 2 lbs while I was sick. I also lost inches bc I can see the change in my body but of course I didn't measure myself at the start so I don't know how many I actually lost. I have some very difficult days where I just want to eat everything bad, but then I have really good days. I hate that part of it. I am looking forward to all the support I will gain from you all!

    Thanks for putting this together!

    Hi, I'm Jennifer. I'm 30 and have over 100 lbs to lose. I just started using MFP again and I tend to do well for awhile, then lose my motivation. I'm hoping this challenge will help keep me on track.

    @Lagopus I did finish, thanks! It was a red-weather event (meaning high alert) because of the high humidity levels. It was supposed to be cloudy and chance of storms, but instead it was all sun. IFeeling a bit sore today... but so glad I got out there!

    Congratulations runningsahm!

    Geez, high humidity and risk of storms... That certainly won't be a problem for me! I'll be lucky if the temperature is more than a few degrees above freezing.

    What part of the world are you in?

    Midwest - USA. On Friday reports were predicting lightning during the race, which would have meant cancelling it all together, but instead it was 75º and nearly 100% humidity. I drank a ton of water. =)

    Where are you located? Are you excited for your first half?

    I'm in the Scandinavian Arctic. North. WAY north. Think Point Barrow, Alaska and then some. I grew up in the Midwest, though, so I know what you're up against.

    I'm not exactly excited, but I'm looking forward to it. I'm pretty confident I can pull it off, and I hope maybe somebody will cheer for me. The race is a really small one, just a couple hundred runners doing full or half-marathons or 10 km races along the same roads. Some of my friends think I'm crazy, but that's okay.

    Hi My Name is Clare,
    My first time to this challenge, I have done a few others in the past. I have been doing MFP for a couple of years and at one point had lost 125 pounds, but have been struggling the past year and regained 25, I do great during the week and totally fail on weekends. My goal is to lose 1-1.5 pounds a week, which is what I was doing up to May of last year. But reality I just want to get my snacking back under control and get back to the good habits I thought I had nailed. I have 55 pounds to lose.

    Aw, Jay... Those last weeks are really tough, especially for the mum-to-be, who's carrying all that extra weight. You're both going to drop some soon!

    Hi all!!

    I'm Kay and I'm 23. This is my first time doing a challenge.

    My goal weight for the end of 12 weeks is 121 pounds. To be honest though, that's just an arbitrary number. I just want to be fit and happy with my body. If that happens before 121 pounds, I would be ecstatic ;)

    All the Best to everyone!!

    Hello All, I'm so glad I found this challenge today. It's exactly what I need. My name is Rachel, I'm 43 years old, I have been married for almost 23 years. We have three boys, my oldest is almost 19, in the Coast Guard, my middle is 17, a senior in the fall and my youngest is 10 and is homeschooled. So my life is all over the place. I started getting healthy in Feb 15 and have lost 19lbs but I feel like I hit a wall and just can't get my motivation back on track. Hoping this challenge will motivate me, I have a long ways to go still. Looking forward to getting to know you all, If anyone is intrested I would love to have "Friends" along this journey!

    Hi guys!!

    My name is Larissa and I'm very excited to see how this challenge will work out for me! I've tried challenges before but I always end up flunking out somewhere in the middle. I'm hoping this will be the first time I'm able to stay true to myself, and my group members, by sticking to the challenge!

    Hiya all! I'm Janice , 44, from UK, working mum of 5 (aged 11 to 25). I found myself at 13 stones about 6 years ago and juiced my way to 10 stones in only a few months. I have always worked out (and worked hard at this), run and cycled so it was easy to maintain my new weight.....until recently when I needed surgery on my shoulder (I am now 3 weeks post-op) which meant my exercise regime came to a grinding halt, apart from walking. My weight is now 11st 7lb and I can't fit into anything! So here I am, very determined, to get back into my jeans. I'm looking forward to doing this with you all by my side. Good luck to you all and thank you, Jamie, for all you are doing x
