This is not the same thread as the "Lose 10 lbs in August Challenge". The one you joined was started by SommerJo, and that's the one where I'll be posting our team updates.

So I just wanted to introduce myself since I should be doing a lot of communication with you all. I'm 23 and a mother to a little boy. I gained 75lbs during my pregnancy, yes, way too many lbs. I lost about 34 of those lbs after two weeks of having my son. The rest have stayed with me, and then some, for the past 3 years. It's about time I commit myself to really losing the weight. I'm hoping this challenge keeps me motivated this August.

Collegegal13

Wicked excited!

mmpriemer

I like the idea of introductions I am 24 and a recent college grad. During high school I was involved with a ton of activities and constantly active. Once I hit college that stopped and I spent more time in the library (and bars) than exercising. I ended up gaining 70 pounds from high school! Anyway, in October I got engaged and am getting married in December. Plus I am starting my first teaching job in August and we are in the process of buying a house. With all these important life milestones I want to be able to take pictures and use them! Also, I want to be healthy and active again so I can keep up with my future husband as we start our lives together! Look forward to working with all of you and helping each other reach our goals

Bump for the team!

Introduction eh?

My name is Katie, just turned 23. Always been a chubby kid, with the weight staying on throughout high school. Ballooned to 124kgs (don't use lbs in NZ so not used to it sorry lol) in 2007 and in Jan 2009 I joined WW with my mum at 112.5kgs. Lost a total of 26kgs over the year and a half I did it. Could have lost more, but plateaued bad and lost motivation at 88kgs. Crept back up to 94kgs over the past year (that was my weight when I started here).

Did an online weight loss thingee, wasn't motivated for it, so joined here again. Want to shred that final 20kgs, see how I feel and if I feel I need to lose more I will. Determined this time, though still succumbing too easily during social gatherings (last night at work, pizza and alcohol ...). I want to lose a chunk of it by October (at least a dress size) and the rest before a year of doing it is over. I will be living with my partner next year and I know marriage is on the table in the next couple of years, so I want to be looking my best!

Looking forward to working with you all and good luck!

Hey everyone!! I'm 26, and work shiftwork as a ER nurse. The shifts can reek havoc on my eating habits, I end up eating out too often. Looking to lose about 35lbs total, tone up and look/feel great in my own skin! Can't wait to start this challenge, I'm hoping it'll really boost my motivation.
