    1) Hi I'm Tarsha from West Palm Beach Florida.
    2) I'm just starting out and I'm a little bit nervous that I might have bitten off more than I can chew, but I love a challenge.
    3) I want to be healthy and have more energy for my kid and for myself.
    4) the only physical limitation I have is about 200 extra pounds of body fat.
    5) Although I recently joined MFP, I have been losing weight consistently for the past 6 months. I also have two pounds a week set as my weight loss goal. I've been watching my calorie intake.
    6) My biggest struggles are making time for me to workout consistently, & not listening.to. that.negative voice in my head that tells me I'm crazy for even trying this @ this stage in the game. I'm.a firm believer in act as if you can until you do. Modified! modified, modified! :-) It's time for me to be true to my vision.as they say.& do what it takes to achieve my goals. Thx for letting me join you guys on this journey.

    1) Your Name and Where You Live - Susan from Texas
    2) How is your current fitness? - Pretty bad. I have started going to the gym and using the weight machines, but that is only recently. Started T25 on Monday (10/7/13).
    3) What are your fitness goals? To finish Alpha and Beta - even if I have to use the modified versions of the exercises 90% of the time. Then, I'd like to try it again with little to no use of the modified exercises. Ultimately, I have about 60 pounds that have been 'hanging on' for over 10 years. The additional 25lbs have slowly been creeping on the last 5 years or so.
    4) Do you have any physical limitations? None, beside lack of willpower.
    5) How is your nutrition? I have recently been cleaning up my diet. Cutting sugar, no sodas, more water, small portions.
    6) What is your biggest struggle - My biggest struggle is sticking with a fitness routine and healthy eating long enough to see results. I think once I can see results (like maybe losing a pant size) I will be more determined to continue.

    Hi All, I started T25 yesterday 10/8. Would love to follow along to keep the motivation going.

    1) Your Name and Where You Live - Amanda -Houston, Tx
    2) How is your current fitness? - I run 2-3 times a week. Wanting to add more exercise in.
    3) What are your fitness goals? - Lose 20 more lbs by the end of Dec.
    4) Do you have any physical limitations? - no
    5) How is your nutrition? Decent
    6) What is your biggest struggle - Not being consistent with diet or exercise. Would love to be able to do both at the same time. If I eat really well, my exercise slacks off. If my exercise routine is going well, I tend to splurge too much on food.

    Hi, I'm still thinking about ordering the program. I've never been able to commit to a workout before and don't want to waste my money if I can't find it within myself to do this.

    1) Your Name and Where You Live - Lindsay, Barrie Ontario Canada
    2) How is your current fitness? - I'm very overweight. I can climb 2 flights of stairs. I walk 2x a day for 25 minutes each
    3) What are your fitness goals? To get healthy before I do more permanent damage to my body, ultimate weight loss goal of 135 lbs, 20 down so far
    4) Do you have any physical limitations? I was in a car accident 4 years ago and love to use my injuries as an excuse. I have problems with both hands and knees.
    5) How is your nutrition? It's OK, I'm not a veggie lover. I could definitely stand more fruit. I stay within my MFP limits most days.
    6) What is your biggest struggle - Motivation!!

    Hi! I started on 9/30 but just stumbled upon this group. :smile:

    1) Your Name and Where You Live -- I'm Jennifer and I live in Michigan

    2) How is your current fitness? -- Before starting T25 (started 9/30) I just did Zumba once or twice a week, and treadmill or bikes at the Y.

    3) What are your fitness goals? -- When all is said and done I would like to be down 50lb and have toned muscles

    4) Do you have any physical limitations? -- no

    5) How is your nutrition? -- Getting better. Very rarely fast food, no boxed meals or frozen meals, trying to eat clean as best I can. I need to up the protein and lower the carbs. I did my BMR and TDEE so I am on the right track for my calorie goals now.

    6) What is your biggest struggle -- Eating enough protein and lowering my carbs. I have been eating more for the last few weeks (when I did my BMR/TDEE I was eating way under where I should have been and is likely a huge reason for me not losing).

    1) Your Name and Where You Live -- I'm Frank and I'm from Massachusetts

    2) How is your current fitness? -- When I went into the military (12 years ago) I weighed 182 now I'm 30 pounds heavier and I need to lose it desperately.

    3) What are your fitness goals? -- I want an attainable reasonable goal to start - I'd say lose 20 lbs in 10 weeks (T25)

    4) Do you have any physical limitations? -- no; although my knee bothers me after some T25 workouts but I just modify

    5) How is your nutrition? -- Getting better. I start with cream of wheat/oatmeal and fruits in the mornings. Lunch is followed by a Vega One shake mixed with a Fiber Supplement.

    6) What is your biggest struggle - Eating Dinner and eating Late. I usually eat my most calories during this time and look for snacks.
