    I need to join. I definitely need to lose at least 100 lbs, preferably 125. I've lost and gained in the past, and now I'm at my highest weight ever. My goal for this year is to make it to 193 lbs. My first non-scale goal is to fit back into my jeans that I haven't been able to wear in several months. I really don't want to buy a larger size, so losing is my only choice.

    Starting weight: TBD
    Goal weight: 199 lbs (eventually 120 lbs)

    I joined around this time last year (i dont know if you guys remember me) but after having trouble loosing, i gave in and gave up. I started the challenge at 159 and just couldn't seem to kick this weight up until April. Come July I reached 177 and kicked myself into high gear and now I am in a happier, healthier place at 144. I would like to recommit to this challenge. Please sigh me up

    Does anyone use Instagram? I created an account to post food, motivation, and be encouraged by others with similar goals. I don't do or follow coaching or products, simply there to learn and be motivated. My account is shelleyinher40s. I think it would be fun to have a hashtag we can use for the challenge!

    @ShelleyModisette - I'm jennisaysjump_sw on Instagram (I've followed you), my account is for my weight loss journey.
    For a hashtag, maybe something like #52in52, #52lbs52wks, #52lbsin52wk, maybe?

    This week's challenges: writing down all what I eat, including coffee. And also I find the website a little weird, I’m supposed to be eating around 3000 cal because I am active person. And I don’t think I’ll be able to eat that much calories if I’m eating healthy

    Count me in. My son is 6 months post treatment for Accute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, and since the day of his diagnosis, I've gained 50 lbs. I finally feel like I can refocus on myself for the first time in over 2 years. ❤️
