:smile: Hi I'm' Steffi! I'm 21 years old, from Massachusetts, 5'1" and 150 pounds. My aunt is also trying to lose weight so we started a little competition and I'm not doing so well! The deal is I have to lose 15 pounds by Thanksgiving and she has to lose 30 by thanksgiving. We started back in August and i've lost maybe 2 pounds while she has already lost 15. I know I wont be able to lose 15 pounds in like 6.5 weeks, but I want to lose somewhere between 5-10 so I feel a little better. I also have a Bar Mitzvah for my boyfriends Cousin on December 14th so I'd really like to lose 15 by then. I've been using this app and tracking calories and also trying to run at my school gym everyday, but no luck so far!

Any tips or motivation would be appreciated!

Thanks and can't wait to meet some of you :)
