    Hi all!! A short intro...My name is Rita, I started this lifestyle change almost a year ago (January 1!). In that time I've lost 63 lbs, lowered my cholesterol and BP AND stopped snoring!! I still have a really long way to go, but I kept my resolution this year, and in the New Year I will be dedicated to focus even more on healthy eating ("Clean eating" may be too ambitious at this point, however I will strive for Cleaner eating and work on getting in more veggies and seriously minimizing even moreso processed white flour and sugar). I am also looking forward to joining Planet Fitness, as my Christmas present to myself and step up my workouts. I have been up and down with the same 4 lbs for the last 3 months (between 260-264) and I'm ready to bust that!

    Also, we do need to vote on a team name, so I think the most fair way to do this would be to take suggestions and then vote on those...Thoughts on this??

    Please don't forget to add your fellow team mates! Can't wait to get started!!!

    Hi there, I am Melanie. I have lost weight then put some back on so I am using this challenge for some motivation to lose the weight again to get ready for next summer!! I have joined a new gym a few months ago and really liking it too!! I have also hit a plateau as well so hoping this challenge will help out with this.

    For a name, what do you think about Pink Panthers?? Just a suggestion.

    Go Pink!!

    hey everyone...glad to be on pink team as its my favorite color :D

    Im 22 (will be 23 in a month) and this summer was a big eye opener for me on how I REALLY need to lose the weight. Ive completed my first 5k in Oct and my first 8k in Nov...now I need to start losing the weight so I can get faster. Not gonna lie my body is nauturally slow at losing weight (sorry :/) but I did lose 7 pounds these past couple of months with another biggest loser competition

    everyone add me :)
    cant wait for this to begin

    Hi teammates! My name is Jennifer, I'm 42 years old, and I've been on MFP for nearly 10 months now. Thanks to MFP and consistent exercise, I've lost 45 pounds, 10% Body Fat, and I went from a very tight size 16 (about to have to move up to an 18) to a Size 10 and 12. I went from being considered “Overweight” to “Healthy.” I still have work to do to get toned arms, legs, and a flat tummy back. For the last three months, I've been frustrated with a plateau but it seems to be breaking now (hopefully!). So...this is a very welcome challenge to help me to get bathing suit ready for the summer of 2012. I look forward to getting to know each of you as we work hard to reach our goals together! GO TEAM PINK!

    ♥♥♥ Jennifer

    Pink Panthers is a great name!!! I'll take other suggestions as well throughout the week, and then vote, unless everyone votes we go with Pink Panthers!!! Weigh in, Pink!

    Even though I am not on your team anymore, you can still have the name Pink Panthers if that is the name you guys choose.

    Good luck to you all!!

    OK Team Mates, I need a Team Co-Captain!! Anyone interested please inbox me!!!

    Co-Captain agrees to be available to take over if I am gone for a while or (heaven forbid!!!) I need to step out of the challenge. Please refer to the Captains thread on the group page for details on Captain responsibilities. Thanks in advance!!!

    Team Mates: I would like input from members in regards to the type of challenges you would like to see for group challenges. Obviously, I can't please everyone every week...but this is a lifestyle change, and as we move toward being healthier, some of it will certainly take us out of our comfort zone! That being said, I would like to give everyone an opportunity to have a voice! Challenges will be both physical and nutritional in nature. Thanks in advance!!!

    GO PINK!

    Hi!! I for 1 would like to see more nutritional challenges like adding a min of fruit per day (i don't eat fruit at all) or a min of water, min of sugar.

    hmmm what else... maybe exercise wise we cud do like a number of miles a week or min of minutes in the gym.

    lifestyle wise we could do like a min of hours sleep, less buying fast food.

    just a few suggestions. I just want to be challenged! hehehehe
