    Is it too late to join?

    c w: 180
    h w: 200
    goal: 135

    Yes - I have more than 35 to go, but this is a good starting point for me...

    Least favorite - belly & hips
    most favorite - bottom
    motivation - getting married in less than 2 month (not my time line)
    planning a cruise in May of next year to celebrate getting my bachelor's degree and delayed honeymoon.

    I work full time and go to school usually 3/4 time - losing weight that I have gained since surgery and quitting smoking is getting tougher to do all the time...

    Hey everyone! I'm in! How shall we proceed from here?

    I can definitely stand to lose these last 35 pounds...well 37 ;)

    Current Weight: 187
    Goal Weight: 150
    Heaviest weight: 242

    Least favorite part: Arms...yep, they jiggle like lunchroom lady arms...lol!

    Favorite part: lips (smile) and butt.

    What motivates you? Hmmm...I've been chasing this dream forever. I have the man of my dreams and we're getting married so I want to start our marriage with a healthy lifestyle.

    Timeline: I want to see some changes by the end of this year...but totally gone, by Spring of next year. My birthday is in May so I know those last 10 pounds or so will be the hardest.

    My height is 5'5.

    Goal Weight: 135
    Heaviest Weight: 187

    What is your least favorite body part? My inner thighs

    What motivates you? I used to weigh 125 and be a great athlete (up until about 4 years ago) and have slowly put on weight each year due to various reasons.... Looking at old pictures and KNOWING I can be there again. Regaining my mental and physical health and confidence

    This sounds great! The more I interact with other people with the same goals, the better I seem to be doing. I'd love to be a part of your challenge. I currently have just under 40 pounds to lose. I have lost 8 pounds in 40 days and I want to keep up that pace.

    Height: 5' 9"
    Current Weight:179.6
    Goal Weight: 140
    Heaviest Weight:215 (when I was pregnant 2.5 years ago) 188 is the heaviest I have been this year

    What is your least favorite body part? my big fat ugly squishy belly
    What is your favorite body part? My boobs, they make me feel good because they take the eyes off my icky belly

    What motivates you? my son. I want to be healthy and teach him how to be healthy while he is a child so he has healthy habits and doesn't have to learn how to do this later in life. I am also thinking about having another baby but I am getting older (30 now) and I know another pregnancy would be hard on my body so I'd like to be in the best shape possible.

    Timeline in which you would like to lose 35lbs? 5-6 pounds per month so April for 35 pounds and May for 40 pounds.

    Heaviest Weight: started at 262 on 8/8/12. I'm down 31 pounds.
