Introductions

Here we go...

For those of you who don't know me, my name is Julie and I'm a 24 year old from Eastern Canada. I have about 90 lbs to lose and my young horse is my main motivation. I have three crazy cats (two were wild kitties from Turks & Caicos) and a supportive boyfriend who doesn't have much to lose but needs to get fit.

I will be helping Crissie (LilCrissieBug) run this competition, so if you have any questions or comments, please feel free to get in touch with either of us.

Your turn :)

    I am so exited I was looking for a competition it makes this more fun, I am 30 yrs old and a mother of 3 and have struggled with losing weight since I gave birth to my first born child. I was over 350 lbs and have lost 117 lbs in total I have more weight to lose but I know I will get there if I give it my all. My goal is 185 lbs and even tho its still considered beign over weight that is a number I would love to see when I get on the scale.

    My name is Tammy. I have lost 48 lb. I have at least 50 more to go. I was a part of the last Group and it helped me a lot. Especially the money pool. I really want new clothes. One of these times I am going to make it.

    :smile: Hello my name is Paulina 25 years old and I've been on this journey since February of last year. I've already lost 46 lbs. but would ideally like to lose another 64 lbs. I need more people to push me through these last pounds because it seems to get a lot harder once you're out of the 200's to lose weight. Any help or encouragement would be super encouraging.

    Hi! My name is Margaret and I'm from Eastern Ontario,CA and I'm 54. I have been using MFP since 2/29/12 and have lost 29.8 lbs. I was also part of the last Biggest Loser Challenge and at the same time was part of a Biggest Loser Challenge at work. I would love to be part of this new group. Good luck to all the new people and the ones that have decided like me to join again. Thank you ladies for doing this for us.

    I would love to join in! My name is Katie and I'm going into my senior year of college. I have about 100 lbs to lose to be relatively healthy, more to become an average weight. I'm an avid horse lover and have a horse on loan for the summer so spend my afternoons after work at the barn. My best friend and I have taken up walking/jogging and are on a mission to become healthier. I'm making an effort to live a healthier life and to just not give up!

    Nice to meet everyone! :)

    Count me in, too. My name is Cyndi, I am 45 years old and just joined MFP last month. In 2011, I lost about 50 lbs. and for the first time in my whole life I was actually in a healthy weight for my height (I'm 5'6")!!! Unfortunately, in the past 7 months I have gradually put 20 lbs. back on. This challenge will hopefully keep me motivated to get these last 20 pounds off for good! I am also interested in doing the money pool! Thanks for running this challenge.

    Hey I'm Leigha and I am a single mom with a 7 year old son. I was looking for something to participate in just to help me stay motivated. I have tried to do this on my own but ended up quitting because I would always put off going to the gym until tomorrow. I am starting slow to try to make sure the habits stick (every other time I have gone with a really strick diet and hated it). I am wanting to lose 120 over all but have set a small goal to lose 20 lbs at a time.

    Here goes nothing....I'm excited to make the change.
