    I would like to join in as well! I'm looking for some motivation. I have about 20 to 25 pounds to lose. I haven't lost any. I really hope to lose at least 5 - 8 pounds before my fifth wedding anniversary on May 21. I work out about 3 times a week for about 45 minutes. I would love to do more but I find it hard with my schedule.

    Hi, I would like to join if I'm not too late.

    CW: 215.4
    GW: 160
    Calories: 1400

    So far I've lost 5lbs since joining MFP April 1st. I would like to lose an additional 15lbs by May 31st.

    Started off the first few weeks getting 20-25,000 steps/day on my Fitbit. I was in a car accident last week which has really slowed my progress as I am sedentary on bed rest now... Still have control over what I'm eating though. Hoping through physiotherapy I'll be back to stepping 20,000 again by the end of May.

    I would love to join the challenge.
    - how much weight you have to lose - I need to lose at least 20 lbs
    - how much weight you've already lost and how much- sadly I lost 7 lbs but gained it all back after so very stressful periods. The stress is still there but I need to find my motivation to lose this weight. I weigh more than I ever have.
    - Little bit about your diet and exercise plan- I was working out 5 days a week but lost that motivation but I will start again. I do focus on lifting weights and consuming a descent amount of protein, which seems to work for me. I eat around 1500 calories.

    I would like to join your motivation challenge. I've lost 34lbs on my own so far. Have about 80 more go. I track here with a 2lb per week/1800 calorie plan which has helped me loose the 34 far, but lately been faltering. I have been doing elliptical 5 days week/45minutes to an hour, plus walks family when we can and yard work. I'd realistically like to just loose the 8-10lbs I'm supposed to in a month. But, I need help sticking to it and not falling apart after a little success!!!.

    I'd love to join your challenge!

    I'm trying to lose 8 more pounds (one per week though, and I have lost 12 so far!) so I hope to reach my goal by the end of June! I am exactly five feet tall, 22 years old, enjoy hot yoga, circuit training, weight lifting, and being outdoors. I began at 130 and am trying to reach and maintain a body weight around 110. My biggest problem when it comes to eating is binge eating at night time. I could easily consume 1000+ calories in 30 minutes by ravaging through all my food like a mad woman haha So I have been trying to limit the late night binges. They have gotten better (eating less) but I'd like to eliminate them altogether. I would have already reached my weight loss goal if it weren't for being a binge eater. My goal is to eat 1400 calories a day, stop eating by 7 pm, and try to increase my protein intake.


    Anyone please feel free to add me as a friend (:
