who wants to join me for weekly check-ins on wednesday? your goal must be to lose 5-15 pounds by easter, starting 2/23 and ending 4/20 (a duration of 9 weeks).
i will not be putting together a group chart so each person will be responsible for keeping track of their own weightloss. to report your weightloss each week, please use the following format (copy and paste with your numbers):

3/30 - 145.4 (+)
4/6 - 143.2 (-)
4/13 - 142.7 (-)

Hi, my name is Moriah. I'm 23 and have a 5 1/2 month old son. I really enjoy making and playing music. i haven't done too much of that lately, been lacking inspiration and motivation, but I'm hoping that, the better i feel about myself, the more i will do what i enjoyed again. I was looking for a group to join, and i'm glad i found it!! i've already lost 44 lbs before starting MFP. i'm trying to get rid of the last stubborn bit. i'm exclusively breastfeeding still GO ME!! lol.

Hi, I'm Meagen, I'm 21 I'm a full time student and I work part time as well. I've been trying to get to 138 lbs at least since last May. haha I think this is the challenge I finally get to that elusive number. The motivation of soon to come beach season should help at the end of the challenge. For fun I like to dance and hang with friends and read (not text books :laugh: ).
start weight: 144.4 (as of yesterday)

I'll be back on the 23rd! But I'm definitely in. I'm Tati and I'm a full time grad student. I've been trying to lose the last 15 pounds for the past 6 months...lost it once and kept it for all of 2 weeks! My nemesis is exercise...I believe I was a rock in a past life. I really just do not like to move, except walking. Although I am developing a fondness for weight lifting...
If anyone told me that these last few pounds would be harder than the first 55, I wouldn't have believed them!
starting weight: Hmm...Highest weight was 175. Highest MFP weight was 135. Highest weight in past year was 125.

Hi everyone! I'm Mande; currently a stay-at-home wife, hoping to become a stay-at-home mom sometime this year. I'm a vegetarian, and working my way through a round of Power90 (on week 3 right now) and doing some additional walking and yoga on the weekends. Oh, I've recently taken up crochet, but I'm not very good at it yet. :laugh: Must practice more.

Hi! I'm Taylor, I am engaged to a wonderful man and between the 2 of us we have 8 kids! I am the catering director for a local Carino's Italian Restaurant. I am currently doing the HCG diet and have lost 20lbs on it. I go off of it in 10 days. This challenge seems perfect to keep me motivated after the HCG is finished. I enjoy reading, watching movies, shopping and I love cooking, spending time with my family and listening to my fiance sing.

I'm in! I'm Micki and I'm tired of being heavy! I'm ready for change. I'm 47, married 24.5 years and have one son. I'm a banker who sits on her butt all day talking on the phone, so weight loss has become a real challenge! Fun for me is sedentary too , I love needlework, reading, and painting. The warm weather will bring some fishing with my guys.
Let's do it.

Hello, my name is Amber. I am the mother of 3, twins who just turned 1, and a 2 1/2 yo. I work part time as a RN and need to lose an additional 50 lbs. I did the Valentine's Day challenge and it def helped keep on track so I am positive that this will keep me going. It helps to be accountable to someone!
As of today: 204
start weight: Will weigh in next week for this number

Hello I’m Stormy : Sixty-one year old grampa that is trying to regain his youth. I believe youth is wasted on the young (you don’t really appreciate being young until you’re not young anymore). Anyway, I’m working at being younger than I am and mfp is helping me with groups like this. I look forward to this challenge and the opportunity to inspire and be inspired by all of you. Hope to see you all again every Wednesday starting on the 23rd.

I'm Chrissy. I'm 141.8 lbs, which has flucuated up and down over the last several weeks. I'm a runner and whole foodie. I've lost 85 lbs over the last 3 yrs and now I'm down to the last 12 lbs until I reach goal and struggling. I've waited so long to be able to wear a bikini and that's been a huge motivator for me. I will be in one this summer and this seems like just the challenge I need to help me get there.0
