Welcome to the I Challenge Myself Team!
My name is Becca and I am a former member of Spark People. I was a member there for 10 years and lost a total of 126 pounds. I have gained a bit back (111 pounds down), but am committing to do my daily goals to help me get back on track.
I am also diabetic with ADHD and have found that I am more compliant if I track my daily goals in writing, hence, forming this team.
Please introduce yourself, and welcome!

Hi, I am Judith and I used to be a member of Sparkpeople. Looking for accountability and friendship - mutual - as I loose that last lump! I have lost weight in the past but now the last leg is the hardest slog.
I have a few challenges health-wise but also like smiling!

Hi, my name is Susan. I started my latest weight loss journey in August 2021 at 204 lbs and was initially very successful. I am currently stalled at 177 with a goal weight of 145. I am 5’7”. I have knee and back issues so step challenges are out for now. I love to swim, use the free weights and ride the stationary bike at the gym. With COVID concerns I made the decision to avoid the gym in January but now it’s late February and my first challenge is going to be gym visits. I also need to regularly perform back strengthening exercises to avoid another back episode. There will be a challenge related to that also.
I joined another group in early January but it was full of people posting videos, daily meals, and just a lot of stuff. I am hoping this smaller group can be more interactive. I am happy to cheer on, celebrate and encourage others. I am still struggling with some of the nuances of posting on MFP so if I put something in the wrong place just let me know.2 -
Welcome, Susan! I am newer to posting here too so we can work it out together!
So glad you are here!0 -
Hi, I am Wyn. Thank you for the invite 😁 I sort of recognize your name from SP. Were you on the colouring team? Anyway, I am 71 recovering from TIAs last year nothing really bad but definitely set me back. I have just finally managed to get 20 minutes on the TM. Now I need to challenge myself to improve my actual body.2

Hello Wyn, glad you are joining us. I am also working on a non scale challenge. Gym visits are going well but weight loss is stagnant. Look forward to reading about your challenge.1

Hi everyone,, I'm Kira was very active on SP. Covid has been hard and I managed to gain back most of the weight I lost in recent years, thankfully i have not gained the first 80lbs that i lost 12 years ago.1

I'm Christina, I have no idea what SparkPeople was, haha. I'm 33, I only really use MFP for the forums, as I use MacroFactor for logging food, and I love to do pole fitness. The pole fitness groups here on MFP are pretty much tumbleweed towns, so I figure I'd use my own thread here, and check in with you all! Hi!1
