    Hi!! I am Hanna. I am 28, from WA. traveling in SE Asia this year and currently in Malaysia. Traveling and traveling with two preschoolers has made me gain weight. I already had weight from my pregnancies so I need to get focused. I know my weakness is the food quantity and sugar addiction. I am hoping to stay active and keep myself accountable for this challenge :smile:

    Hi everybody, welcome newbies (well, I've only done this for June and July, so kinda new myself).

    I had slipped off the MFP wagon in AprilMay, so to speak, and this helped me get back into it on a consistent and daily basis from the first day of June. Good luck all.... Basically, just don't give up, and it's one day at a time!

    Hi! I'm Liselyn from Quebec and I have been playing with the UAC gang for a few months now. I'm maintaining and this group really helps - no slips last for long and the support is great even if you don't make the winner's circle. Welcome to all the newcomers!

    Hello. I am Tami. I am excited to join this challenge as I have been missing the accountability and support so crucial for success when trying to make and maintain healthy habits. I am good on the exercise part, but I want to improve my eating.

    Hello team! I am Mary (or Mimi is my nickname). I am looking forwards to the accountability of this group, as I do best when I am logging my food consistently. Thanks for having me in your group! :)

    Back for my third month. June was a write off thanks to a torn ankle ligament and July included a 10 day celebration of being on earth for 4 decades, so aiming for that Winners Circle in August.

    I spend my day playing with snakes, spiders and seals and my off time trying to choke my friends (through a sport called Brazilian Jiu Jitsu). I live on the beautiful south coast of South Africa and had the best birthday present ever this year with a mini summer in mid-winter. August is the last month of that miserable cold season and I can endure it, knowing that summer is coming!!!!

    I am close to goal weight and have actually maintained here for 2 and a half years, but I prefer fighting one weight class down (as I'm currently in the upper division which doesn't have a limit in some competitions) and I hate weight cuts pre-fight so I want to maintain within the division I fight at. Only 5 kgs below my current level so not too far away!!!!

    Just turned 50! Need to lose 20lbs. I haven’t been successful so I hope this kicks me in to gear.

    I’m Louisa from New Zealand. This is my first MFP challenge and perfect for me. I work as a pastry chef and am very unaccountable for the food I put in my mouth
