  • Hi there,

    I just joined MFP yesterday with a goal of losing 20-30 lbs too so this sounds great :-)

    Also being Irish 20 lbs off by Paddy's day (this is what we call it) sounds like a fitting goal!

    I will set up my profile and get a ticker later today, add me :-)

    Hi, my name is Laura. I also live in NYC. I would love to lose 20 by St. patty's especially since my birthday is the week before! I gained what I lost last year back over Christmas. Overall I have lost 50 lbs since I first began trying to lose weight in 2008. My motivation has been inconsistent over the last two years. I am happy I kept the fifty off but I really want to get down to my goal weight of 125. Thanks for the added inspiration! I am 26 btw.

    Sarting weight: 152.
    Goal by 3/17/13: 132
    ultimate goal: 125!!!

    Thanks all for the support

    I just turned 21 on December 19th! Tired of being overweight ugh!! I remember when I was younger my goal was to be skinny by the start of high school, then it was be skinny by my 18th birthday..then my 20th, and at my 21st I knew it wouldn't be a cake walk. haha

    I am ready to do this now!
