My name is Elisabeth, and I am 26 years old, 5'7" and 210.4 lbs as of this morning! I seriously need a goal, and I need others to help me stay accountable! I would love to lose just 2 pounds a week so this is very doable! I will be weighing in on Wednesdays! I know it seems crazy to begin this before Christmas, but I have to start now! I can't go another couple of weeks until January 1st!

This is NOT A CRAZY idea! The confidence you gain by staying in control over the holidays will be priceless and will sweep you along the path towards your goal!

I made a commitment at the beginning if December last year, not to lose weght, just to not gain any more. I was so excited that I had actually lost a few pounds by January that I just kept on going! I'm down 117 pounds so far!

I know you can do it!

I'm in too! I'm 18, a little over 5'8 and currently 137 looking to stay motivated to eat healthy and workout over the holidays! I'd like to be able to lose ten to fifteen pounds, build some muscle and maintain through healthy habits by the time spring rolls around.

I am definitely in - please add me to the group, as I couldn't find it under "groups."

My name is Trish and I am 30 years old, married to an adorable nerd from India, and live in California's Silicon Valley. Since June of this year, I have worked my butt literally off and have lost 41 pounds. I am 186 right now and have another 26 pounds to go to get to my goal weight. I love to get close to it by March!

Occupation: I am an Education Specialist (working with children with special needs) and am almost done with my school administration degree. I am hoping to be in administration within the next couple of years.
Favorite Color: Burgundy or Black
Favorite Store to shop in: the Loft, Macy's, Nordstrom
Favorite Hobbies: Wine tasting, cooking, travel, reading, movies
An interesting fact: My husband is from India and we had a Jewish wedding here and an Indian wedding in Bangalore in 2013.

Please feel free to add me.

I'm in! 20lbs lost already so another 20 would be fantastic!

purdysmile03

Bring it On!!!! I am 30 years old 5 feet 6 inches. Have 2 amazing beautiful kids one who is 6 and the other is 14 month old. I've already lost about 38 lbs but have kind of been stuck there So an extra 30 pounds would be perfect before my husband's family reunion in June.

Feel free to add me as a friend

I'd love to join! I'm 5ft 1 and 150.4lbs. I'm currently down 50lbs

Thank you, Elisabeth, for creating this group. I'm in! I have always struggled with my weight and have finally accepted that I have "let myself go." I am currently 165, and my goal is 120 (I'm 5'1). It has taken me well over a month of dieting to lose just five pounds, so my progress is SSSSLLLOOOOOWWWWW. I try to keep in mind that slow weight loss yields lasting results -- or at least I hope it does!

A little about me: I'm almost 38, and I am taking time off from work to stay at home with my adorable son. I love to exercise, but I'm finding it difficult to make time for it with an infant. I try to take five walks a week so that I don't fall into sedentary patterns at home. In the new year, I plan to leave the baby with his grandma for a few hours a week, so that I can go to an aerobics class and to the gym.

jkrey02

I also would like to join. My name is Jen, I am 5'7 and 190. I would like to drop 25-30 pounds. I am married and have a 12 yr old boy. I lack in the motivation dept. I will get going really good and then something upsets my routine and it's back to square one. I just want to feel comfortable in my own skin and currently I do not. I feel like I literally need a fire lit under my butt on a regular basis to keep me going.

fitskim

Count me in! 20lbs by March seems very doable and I love that we're starting before the New Year. I'm 22, 5'1.


I'm going to log in all my food and be an open book with mfp in order to keep me accountable, even on the bad days!

M_on_a_Mission

Hi! I would love to join as well. My name is Melissa, am 45, 5'6" and have recently climbed to 180. A couple years ago I had gotten down to 155 and was so happy with myself. Now I look in the mirror and just see failure. I have a high stress profession and spend long hours sitting at a desk. This group would be the motivation and support I need to get back on track to a healthier me.

Please feel free to add me. Best of luck everyone! We can do this.

I'm Amber 23years old. 5'2- 210lbs as of this morning. I don't really have any support from family of friends so this would be great!
-Feel free to add me

cathyd1000

I'm in too. I am 49 and will be 50 in October 2016. I think being fit will make it less depressing. I am married for the second time for eight years. I have a 21 year old son who is a senior in college and a 23 year old stepson.

I run my own real estaste and property management company from home, which enables me to be here for my Mom who is not well, but doesn't require full time care.

I have lost six lbs so far and would like to lose about 10 lbs more.

Interesting fact: I donated a kidney to my husband in February of this year. We were a perfect match.

I'm 5'2" about 160 lbs. I would live to join. I don't know if I can lose two pounds a week (new mom and bemreastfeeding). But my baby is 9 weeks old and I've only lost 4 pounds since coming home. I can't restrict my calories too much but need motivation to make healthy choices instead of easy choices.

Ivy_Autumn

Can I join!!!!!!
Hey - feel free to add I need help along my path - I never put myself first, (my family comes first) but 2016 is going to be my year and I need to sort my eating habits and exercise regime..... When your partner turns around and says - 'you're getting fat!' (heart is torn from your chest) 'you never put yourself first' (but my children and you are always cared for!) 'you need routine as it's all fat, you trained so hard for your half marathon and haven't done anything in months, and it shows!' (sobbing by now as I work full time, I'm study a CIPD as well as caring for two small children) Any new friends, advice and help is so very welcome. This group maybe all I need!

I'm 5ft 6
I have about 45lb to lose so I feel better about myself.
I'm a HR Advisor for a huge multi national company
I love the colour Blue
I love running
I need routine and direction - to be made to eat right

Thanks
