    HI! I been on mfp for a few months. I've lost 16 lbs. I've still got a long way to go. I need to lose at least 90 more lbs. I am doing a whole lot better now. I'm really getting into exercising. Learning new workouts. Just started strenght training and I really like it. I have some bad days where I just have to fight to stay on track. I want to eat just because and lay around. It's getting better but I still need some support. I was in another group and it fell apart. I would love to join this group.

    Are you still having trouble? It seems to be working on my end... I have received several registration forms. Maybe try a different browser?

    Hi my name is Sherry. I've lost 10lbs on my own and decided to join MFP for extra motivation. Having a buddy and someone to be accountable to is exactly what I need. I will be turning 40 next summer and REALLY want to be healthy and at an ideal weight.

    Hello Everyone,

    My name is Anita and I would like to join the Diamonds because I really need the motivation to help me on my weight lose journey. I think having a buddy will keep me on the right track and give me the opportunity to inspire someone as well. I have no health issues and I would like to keep it that way because my family has a history of diabetes, high blood pressure and kidney disease. I just want to be healthy and enjoy life.

    My name is Tennille--and I want to join for accountability--when you are helping someone else along that is struggling as well-it puts extra pressure on you to work harder! I just started a new food plan today--and I am really wanting to make this a lasting change!

    My name is Sam. I've been on MFP for nearly 8months but so far I've just been keeping track of my "normal" rather than improving. I'd like to join this group to be able to provide and receive accountability. There's just too much of life to live to worry about "if only...." so I'm going to be a WHEN and not an IF. :)

    My name is Jennifer and I know its late. But since it still says open, I'm guessing the final match ups are tonight. I hope I'm not too late.

    My reason for joining is the only time I've ever lost more then a few pounds was when I was part of a Couch to 5K forum for 10 weeks. I loved it and was on everyday. Once it ended, though, I haven't found another great group. That was last September.

    Also, when I am at work, working out is super easy. I don't have anything to do at night, so might as well go to the gym. Well, I only work for 5 more weeks. Then I'm back home in the comfort of my house, my dog, my loving boyfriend, and yummy beer. It's not easy to keep up, and last year I quit it all within a month of getting home and gained back my 20 lbs. by January.

    I am super motivated when I'm accountable to someone. And I love a challenge, especially when there is planned time and calenders.

    I look forward to this challenge and a great partner!

    Jennifer

    My name is Karen. I would like to be part of this challenge. I joined MFP in March. I weighed 193 lbs. I have been working really hard to lose, but I find I do better on a team. I love being a part of a team. I am an team asset as I will do everything I can possibly do. My husband left me in March. I want to get healthy for me, but I want to be skinny when he sees me! I know petty and childish, but you said be honest!
