Hola muy name is Jojo Im 129 pounds and I'm a single mother to a rambunctious three year old! I work in a nail salon in Florida and have one more year before I get my Bachelors! ! My goal is not weight but inches I literally don't care about any other part of my body but my stomach. I am tired of wearing a tank top and looking 3 months pregnant. My dream is to be able to wear a tshirt without sucking anything in. Right now I'm doing jillian Michaels 30 day shred and I am on level one day 9!
My biggest problem is eating. I'm pretty active I have been doing well but the last three days I cheated with 3 slices of pizza on each day. ? So I haven't lost any weight. This week I plan on eating clean with only one cheat day!
Good luck everyone! Please give me tough love! !0 -
Hello!!!! My name is LaKesha, 34 years old, Cleveland OH. I am a single mother to a VERY energetic and busy 3 year old and I work full time. Tried to take on a 2nd job, but don't think that is working out too well due to my current circumstances. Today is my 60th day in a row (well it's after midnight so day 61) logging in. I just completed the 60day hip hop abs program and am just looking for a new challenge. I imagine, I am going to have to do some two a days-maybe incorporating a walk or something on my lunch hour and doing strictly cardio at night. But we will work it out!!!! Definitely not going to quit that's for sure!!!!0

Hi! Everyone! ....... I'm Sue and I just restarted using myfitnesspal today! I'm 50 years old and live in the Cleveland area...... I love to ride my bike if the weather allows me to. I rode for 40 mins today and burned something like 338 calories for 6.38 miles. I would like to burn 3500 a week on my bike but I'm not sure I'm up to that yet so I could use some ideas on other ways to burn lots of calories ..... I'm trying to lose about 80 pounds.0

Hello everyone, my name is Zoe, 38 and mom of one. I have been traveling for a long time now, currently in Mexico. I don't have a scale so I am not sure how much I weigh or how much I've lost since since I joined MFP a couple of months ago. But I think at least 25 to 30 pounds more to go. I'm really excited about this group, the motivation and the push to hit a goal is exciting, somthing to work towards every week. I just started c25k, third week starts today, we'll see how it goes, bit longer intervals, eek. Never been a runner, but I like being outside early in the morning. I finally decided enough was enough with always being overweight and that I can be fit and strong and stay that way. I want to get into the best shape that I possibly can. Looking forward to getting to know all of you and helping each other along.0

Hey All! My name is Ray, 42 yrs old from Minnesota. I'm really excited to join this group as it will motivate me to kick some serious butt for the month of August. I have a goal weight loss of ~25 lbs for the months of August-November. I am losing on average about half a pound daily between diet and exercise since June 1, 2013 when I really dove into MFP. This challenge of burning 3500 a week for the month of August should guarantee at least 4 lbs of weight loss for me, but will also help push me up to my goal sooner than expected. Remember this is a marathon and not a sprint. OK, well this month may be more of a sprint than a marathon, but don't' be discouraged if your numbers don't move as fast as you would like them to.0

Hello Everyone!
I'm Monita from Oklahoma City. This has been a wonderful Summer for me - full of many accomplishments! First of all, I quit my job last month and am now officially a Stay At home Mom to my two boys aged 13 and 8. Next, my husband and I celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary a few weeks ago. And lastly, I've lost 13 lbs this month - due to clean eating AND exercise!
I'm excited about this challenge! Bring it on!0 -

Hi everyone! My name is Jen and I'm from New York. I currently weight 269. My starting weight was over 300lbs. My goal is to get down to 160 by my wedding day 10/5/14. I love to give and receive both motivation and support. I also believe that those things are needed in order to be successful. Sometimes I'm not in the mood to go to the gym, but all I do is think about my wedding dress and how far I have come already. I have faced a lot of obstacles in my life including the fact that I had thyroid cancer. This august will mark the 1 year anniversary of being cancer free. I can't wait to start this challenge and I'm hoping that through this challenge I will be able to break the plateau I'm currently at.
If you would like to add me, please feel free too :-)0
