    Not sure I can lose 9 lbs by v-day, but might as well try!!! I'm at a lull, lost a pound, gained it back... so I'm hoping joining some groups and making some friends will help motivate me to keep at it...
    I'm 137, so 9lbs would put me at 128. My goal weight is 125, so I'm really not sure it'll come off so fast, but hey! If I don't try, I'll never know!!!

    This is exactly what i need. A bit of motivation. Gave up smoking 4 months ago (20 a day for over a decade). Kicked that habit but have put on 18lbs since September! I'm 31, 5 foot 2 and my starting weight is 142lbs, aim to get back to a more comfortable weight of 126lbs.

    Good luck everyone.

    I am 22 and currently weigh 247. My starting weight was 260. I am hoping to lose 2-3 pounds a week. If I could get to 235 by Valentine's Day that would be great.

    Hello to all! My name is Jade, I weigh currently 176 lbs and am 5'8. I think this is a great idea. My ideal goal is to weigh 150 and this is a great kick start! Feel free to add me. I am a Georgian and am about to start the 30 day shred by JM. :)

    Hello! I just started MFP today. I joined because I could really use encouragement. I'm not exactly sure how this works.:tongue:

    omyfamily: I just started doing Insanity a couple days ago but taking it semi-easy the first week so I don't hurt myself again since I haven't been able to be physically active much the past couple years. I'm keeping a pretty thorough food diary on MFP which includes a calorie limit, but I think of it more as a guideline & watch more of *what* I'm eating (vitamins & other nutrients, etc.) to be sure I'm getting enough of what I need & not going over on things like sodium or bad fats.

    I've heard of Medifast but haven't looked into it. How is that working for you?

    sarahcrush: congrats on quitting smoking! :0
