    Hello all!!! wow I can't believe the response I received just from one posting, this is great!!! I haven't been on the past 2 days, I had work, I work 12 hour shifts, and drive and hour both ways to and from work............Everyone keep up the great work, and keep in touch when you need some motivation and encouraging words, or hell even if you want to brag......that's what we are all here for!!! :bigsmile:

    Five weeks isn't alot of time. Going to have to work on it every single day to get there! That is why today, although I was nearly falling asleep at my desk at work, I still came home, made a very sensible dinner, and then did an hour of exercise. And even though tomorrow is another 10 hour shift, I intend to do the same.

    I think I need more sleep, and more water. And I am way under my calories today which is just crazy considering I ate 450 for breakfast.. How the... ? I don't want to snack too much late in the evening, that doesn't seem like it's a good idea... but it also can't be great to be so short this often. Hm, I guess I need to work on this. Oh yeah, that's why I am here!! :laugh:

    Really ,reeeeeally would be good to be 10 down at the end of March.

    Lets do this for real!

    Yes, I'm in! I need to lose about 15 all together but would be happy with 10 by end of March. Really, I lose great if I stick with a plan that always works for me....NO sugar, NO white flour products or other bad carbs, and lots of lean protein and veggies. I use Ezekel breads and eat lots of eggs, chicken, and veggies and fruit. If you stick to this I swear the weight just drops. Oh, and lots of water and exercise moderately with some strength thrown in. I always feel great when I eat like this too, it's just hard to ALWAYs stick to it, which is where I gained 10 lbs...Christmas. Good luck everyone!

    I'm also in. It's my daughters 1st bday and it would be great to have another 10lbs of baby weight gone.
    That would leave me with 5 - 7 to do.

    Good morning everyone!

    Today is my one month anniversary with MFP. I've never lost weight in a healthy way and this month has been amazing. I made a lot of excuses over the years and am relieved, and a little annoyed, to find out how easy it is. I hit the 10 pounds lost mark today - which drops me out of obese, I've been craving edamame, fresh fruit, and water like a fiend, and when I'm on the treadmill I want to run. I'm a DD cup and have never, ever wanted to run :laugh:

    It's exciting to see what happens in the next month for everyone on this board. If you're new know that this can work and it's not as hard as you might think. If you've been around a while thanks for being so inspiring.

    Have a great day and stay warm in the snow! :bigsmile:
