**Challenge: From December 12-June 12 Loose Weight**

Options
Hello everyone! I am currently 257ish pounds (haven't weighed myself since Monday). I would like to start a challenge for people looking to lose weight and stay accountable with our community here on myfitnesspal (without going overboard like some challenges). The challenge I pose is simple, lose weight (any amount) consistently for 14 weeks while keeping us posted about your progress every other Thursday each month starting tomorrow (December 12th). If it helps you can use the template below to join in and keep track of your progress. Please keep in mind that losing weight can be hard. There will be days where you overeat and get off track. This is what we in this group are here for.

Hopefully, the extra week in between weigh-ins can give you time to get back on track if you lose your way. Let us move forward together and reach our weight loss goals! Good luck and I look forward to getting to know you all.

    Hello everybody! I'm a working professional working long stressful days and a busy mom. The pounds have creep on over the past 10 years and it's been impossible to lose weight.

    I'm looking to start a healthier life style for my overall health and avoid Diabetes and early joint and heart complications. Just want to get healthy, body,mind and spirit.

    Plus I want to look better for a summer beach trip.

    Hello! I’m a mom to three, a 9 yo, 6 yo, and the youngest is 6 months and breastfeeding. She’s starting to eat real food and I want to loose the extra weight while I can still enjoy eating extra bf calories. My goal is to be at my best feel weight by May 28...I *think* that will be 135-145lbs (I am 5’7”). I have clothes that fit when I felt great and so I will use those to decide my goal weight. I enjoy weight lifting and hiking but I’m not currently doing either and would like to add in more movement to each day.
