The OP wanted to keep it a thread, not a group, but I'd be willing to start a group if people are interested! I need at least 3 people to PM me so I can activate it...I have to invite you to the group to get it started! :flowerforyou:

Tomorrow is our first weigh in! I've had a rough weekend myself... Was down 1 lb earlier in the week, but am up today. :-)

I would like for it to be a group but don't know what PM is

I have weighed in and although I started back on MFP last Monday I consider that just a prelude to really starting today. I am also beginning a 6 week training to run a 5k. I am excited and know this time I can do it. If anyone wants to add me as a friend please do the more encouragement we can have the better. I know a lot of people are starting today and I wish you all good luck. Take one step at a time.

Great idea! I've got back off holiday at my highest weight ever, but the kids went back to school today so I have some time to concentrate on me. And I'm definitely going to change my ticker to the phase goals- much less depressing!

Phase One (3rd Sept- 31st Oct 2013): 19lbs (239----220lbs/ 15st10)

Sorry about that date and weight format, but I'm in the UK and I can't get my head round it otherwise :ohwell:

I'll post in the group, too.

Hey everyone! Just watched tonight's episode, and MAN!!! What an inspiration!

Well, got a bit derailed over the weekend and was out of town, but back on track this week, so I'll skip my weigh in until next Monday.

Lots of new faces! Welcome!

Start wherever you are. This phase goes through 10/31, and then we'll begin a phase two thread so this one isn't too long. Feel free to go to my profile and cut and paste my figures to customize to your own goals.

Great work everyone!

Hey Guys!

This weekend I didn't do so well eating wise. Back on track this week though. I have began eating gluten free & organic as much as possible. I'm starting to get really used to it. Eating healthy & in portions is starting to come a little easier as well.

Lost 12 pounds since the last time I weighed myself, which is fantastic!!

If you have delicious, healthy recipes, please feel free to share!


Good luck!!
