    Hello! I am Alex and I am 5"4. Due to some health complications last year I put on an extra 15 pounds and I have had a hard time getting it off. I would like to return to my base weight of 125 pounds. My husband and I have decided to sign up for a half marathon to kick start the weight loss. Thanks for the support.

    Hey everyone. I'm Jeremiah. I'm 6'0 and 260. So I either need to grow another 14 inches or lose some weight. My I'd-be-happy goal would be about 215, ultimately 190ish would be perfect. I used MFP about 5 years ago and found it useful so I'm hoping round 2 will prove as fruitful.

    Hi. I'm Michelle. I am 5'5" and 192 lbs. I stay really focused and committed until the next treat crosses my path, "squirrel!!". Hoping to lose 20lb before my son's wedding next year not just to look better but so that I can move around without aches and pains the extra weight causes.

    I'm Mallory, I'm about 5'6 and weigh 125 pounds or so last I checked. I can't say I want to lose weight, I mostly just want to get in shape, which I really need to do. I'm a good size, but let's just say I can't run very far without getting out of breath.

    I'm 5ft, 175lbs. I'm down from 225 a few years ago when I was at my largest (quite heavy for a shorty. I feel so much better, myfittnesspal helped a lot!
    125 would be cool, but 140-150 would be fine with me :)

    Dave here. 54 and 187 lbs. I just finished off a sleeve of soda crackers and I'm now staring at a half empty bottle of Miller High Life. My mother always told me I have motivation deprivation. Is that a real condition? :)

    Hi everyone. I'm Sonia. 5'5" and 155 lbs. last year I was 174 lbs, but haven't lost any more weight in the past few months and I'm trying to get down to 145lbs. I joined the group to get more motivation to keep eating healthy and exercise. Plus I love the podcast and the community!

    I'm Brittany, 5'6" and 285 lbs. Last year I was on the right track and lost 25 lbs, but they came back, so now I'm trying to lose them for good. My biggest goal right now is 235, the weight I was when I got married 5 years ago. Wish me luck, I think this group will be a great support.

    Hey everyone,
    My husband and I are big fans of the show! We saw SYSK on tour in Nola earlier this year. I was 9 months pregnant at the time. Since I have had my baby, I have lost 30lbs! I'm proud to say my hard work is paying off. I currently weigh 230 and my current goal is to be under 200lbs. I would just like to say how awesome is it that chuck created this community page! Keep up the good work everyone!

    Howdy everyone. I'm 5'3" and 167. I would like to get down to about 130, but could settle for 140 with muscle gain. I'm excited to do this and in the best way possible - the SYSK way. Good luck!

    Hi, I'm Miriam.
    In the summer of 2012 I was 5'3" 167lbs. My doctor said I was socially acceptable, but my body was working too hard. I started using this app at that time and I am now between 131-135lbs (cause I started keeping track again about three weeks ago). Whenever I get close to the 140 mark, I just start using this app and documenting what I eat. It's amazing how much it has helped me.

    My name is Tara. I'm 5'3 and 193lbs. I'd like to get down to 140, but even 20lbs off would be a great improvement for my health. I have some health issues that could really be helped by losing some weight, which would also put me in a better place mentally.

    Andrew from Toronto. 212 pounds. All in the gut. Thinking it must be the beer. Or the nanchos. Want to get down to 165 -170. I'm only 5'9" so that would be ideal.

    Hi, I'm Chris 5'6 and weigh 141 but want to get back to 135. I hold all the weight in my middle so it's really uncomfortable. Thanks for starting the group Chuck and looking forward to interacting with the group!

    I'm 5'5" and 150 lbs. and 22 years old. My sister and I are starting the Whole 30 on Monday and I am hopeful I can lose 10 lbs in 30 days, especially since I will be walking to summer classes every day and yoga at night. Eventually I would like to see myself down to 135, even 130 if all goes well. I miss having thin arms and a flat tummy!

    Hello! I am Scott and I am 5'10" and back in June 2014 I was 229lbs. As of today I am 175lbs. I picked up running, rock climbing and started tracking everything I ate. My ultimate goal is to be sustained at 165lbs. I feel so much better, awake, and motivated to try new things since my change. It's not as hard as you think if you have a great support group and devote your mind to long term rewards!

    I'm Lindsay. I'm 5 foot even and weigh 113. I'm not necessarily trying to lose weight but to tone back up. I went through an illness last year that halted my work outs. Heard about this group and was like YAAAS. So yay!!

    I'm Tanjia. I am 5'9 and I am guessing that I weigh about 215. My short term goal is to get back to about 180, I am much more comfortable at that weight.
    My friend gave me her Fitbit when she got a new one and it inspired me to go back to track my eating as well as my steps. The last 28 out of 30 days I've had at least 10000 steps. I heard about this group while listening to SYSK on a walk. Thanks Chuck!!

    Hi. My name is Allan. Currently at 202. Would like to get down to 190 although when I lived in Texas I got myself down to 185; so I'd call that my stretch goal.

    My name is Sarah and I have struggled with being overweight my entire life. Good health is my primary goal, but getting to a non-overweight place is going to help. I am 5' 6" and at my heaviest I was 215. I am now 176.4 with a current goal of 150. Once I get there, I will see how I feel. Thanks to Chuck for starting this group!

    My name is Jason. I'm 5'9", and weigh 240 lbs. I have a fairly muscular frame, so 190-200 would be a good weight for me. I've lost this weight before, hoping to do it again and keep it off.

    Hey all. I'm Mike. 41 years old, 5'7". I was about 157 lbs a few months ago when I started working on losing some weight. I've lost about 5 lbs, now at about 152. Hoping to get to 145 lbs, and add some muscle while losing some belly. It's surprisingly hard!

    My name is Stephanie. I'm 5'7" and 175 pounds. I would like to get to 140. I was 200 at my heaviest, dropped down to 155 while teaching pole fitness classes, but have steadily climbed back up once I started a full time, relatively sedentary job.

    I'm Lena. I was at 265, down to 255 at 5'5". My loss has stalled because I stopped tracking and stopped exercising. I'm back at it today and my legs aren't happy with my 18 minutes on the elliptical today.

    I'm Alexis. I'm 170cm, 33yo. I've been on MFP for a while. I was 165 before starting, lost 10lbs on my own, and now 7 since using MFP. My goal is 135 but I'd be happy with 140.
