I am a long way from my goal weight but I was away on a vacation(1 mnth+) and managed to gain over 10lbs.I really need a good challenge that will help me push myself.

catniss

Hi team (gotta love the crazy tribal scream!!),
I joined MFP in Jan, lost 20 pounds in about 3 months and since then I've been going up and down, losing and gaining the same 10 pounds for the last 4 months. It's driving me CRAZY and something's got to change--well, I've got to change. I'm going to use this challenge to jump start my motivation and determination--I'm willing to go the extra distance for the team, even when I wouldn't for myself!
Watch out for the Wappo Warriors!!

Hi Team!

I know I introduced myself earlier (and screamed my tribal scream, lol). I just wanted to tell you that you are going to be THRILLED with the results if you do the daily challenges (IN ADDITION TO your daily routine) AND log your food/eat well AND go over in your water. If you stick with it, you WILL notice a change!

My personal success with August: I've lost 14.6 pounds!!!! I am stronger, I can do things I never thought possible.... AND YOU CAN TOO!!!

So please send Gary your numbers every week, without fail. We want to WIN this competition, am I right?!?!?

OOOOOOOOOO LOOOOO LOOOO LOOOO LOOOOO!!!!!

We are to send him our beginning weight today or tomorrow. I believe he said to send him all of your info for each week on Sundays. (IE.. Challenges completed, met water goal, under calorie goal, weigh in, and anything else that might be added to the week)

mobileheide

I'm so excited to be part of this group! I need the motivation, as I've never weighed this much in my entire life! :sad:

I'm just getting over a broken foot and really bad shoulder (cursed crutches), and I am eating out of frustration, boredom, and comfort. I need patience for myself and from all of you, as I need to do as much modified exercise as I can. I'm back to work next week, and, hopefully and with the doctor's blessing, back to some sort of exercise program.

here's to a great and skinnier/stronger/healthier September!

Stooooo

Am I suppose to be here?

I think I found my way over here from a status update he posted last week-ish? He didn't email it individually.

Hi all! I'm Melissa, a 27yo grad student who's working from home this year on my thesis. I have a tough 11 lbs to lose and I'm hoping this challenge will help. I'm doing C25k at the same time so let's hope everything works together. I can't wait to get started!

I think I'm supposed to be here. Gary mentioned I was on his second team. Hello other second team members and hello to all!

It's Thursday where I am, and I woke up, jumped out of bed, ready to kick the crap out of September. Just weighed in.

Have the challenges been posted somewhere yet??

I was snooping in the captains thread and saw them there. Try searching for it, but shhhh--don't tell them I peeked.


Btw, I'm Glittermouse. Feel free to call me G.Mouse or GM. I'm an ESL teacher. I live in Korea. I started at 278, and this morning I weighed in at 266.9. Looking forward to "losing" with all of you!
