    Hi Everyone!

    I'm Sherri, from Wisconsin and will be 42 this Sunday. Looking forward to starting 2013 100lbs less than I started 2012.

    I started at 260 and so far have only dropped 32lbs but I had a set back in mid-May that put me out of all exercise for over a month and a half - surgery.

    I'm back on track now and wanting to continue my progress towards hitting that 100lbs mark for the year. But I'm not going to beat myself up if I don't hit it, cuz I'm going to weigh less than I have in many years!

    I've been using MFP consistently since Jan even though I started here around Sept or Oct of last year. I wasn't committed and focused on weight loss at the time, I was just messing around. But after the new year, I had had enough. I was at the highest weight of my life, tired and hurting. Time to start focusing on my health and really losing weight.

    I hope to lose enough weight so that I can get completely off my BP meds. I want to lose weight so I can wear a bikini for my husband! I want to lose weight and have people I haven't seen in a while do a double take when they see me!

    Hello All! So happy to see so many ready to lose weight before the new year :) Would love to share pics at the end so everyone can see the results and many people will know that with team work it helps. This is my 1st time serious about losing weight and I am in day 2. Will be starting a topic about whats working for everyone so we can have many ideas on what to do to lose the weight.

    Hi All! I'm Allison, 27 years old, and a (relatively) new school psychologist. Just moved back home to upstate NY so that I can find a job near my family, but times are tough so Im finding myself sitting around doing applications all day long. Gained a lot of weight in the last year and hoping to get down to a healthy BMI.
