    Thanks for starting this group- I'm happy to join!

    SW: 189
    GW for the end of August: 184
    Major Goal #1: 174 (to be overweight, not obese)
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 155

    By the end of this August challenge, I would like my pants to fit a little looser on me!

    I just know I will feel very accomplished if I can mange a 5-lb. loss during one month; thanks to the MFP-ers for all of the support and encouragement- we can help each other achieve our goals!

    I am in! I really want to be able to fit in my good pants for the fall school year...the ones I grew out of last year :noway: I figure at 185 (when the weather gets cooler) I would be able to at least zip them again. So this challenge will be a good start!

    I want to go indoor sky diving! There has been a lot of activities that I want to do, but there are maximum weight capacities :( Did zip lining when I was 250 which was the max, and I could barely stop because I'd flyyyyyy through the trees! It so scary because I would smash into the tree because I couldn't stop. Never want a weight to prevent me from doing things I'd like to do, which has happened.
