in Motivation and Support
I know this is a lot in a short time but I'm not starving myself and I've done this before with MyFitnessPall iPhone app after I gave birth to my first child and finished breastfeeding her (3 years:) , I'm super committed, would love some company :)

I'm sticking to 1200 daily calorie limit and doing cardio + weights every day, I know I can do this.


Please add me if you're up for this :)

    I have a little less than 30 to lose (could be more or less depending on how I feel when I get there). I would love to get down by then, but am having to be really diligent about calories and exercising since I am currently breastfeeding my 4 month old son and would like to continue to do so for as long as possible :) I only made it to 2 months with my daughter so I am doing everything possible to keep going.

    So here's to trying to get down as much as possible by June/July! Good luck to you!

    Thank you, I know how challenging breastfeeding can be, it was very difficult for me at first, just take one feeding at a time and do a lot of self care, like naps whenever you can get them :)

    Thanks for joining me, best of luck to you!

    I'm in:) I've lost about 17 since January. Another 20 would be AMAZINg for my brother's wedding late July. I also want to be able to kick Disneyland's butt when we visit. I keep getting motivated by knowing that we will want to take tons of pictures at the wedding and at Disney with our kids (3 and 1) and I want to look great in them (and feel great too!). Let's do this !

    Me too - I'd love to be 30lbs lighter by summer. I have a pair of Levis I want to get back into well before then though.

    I'm trying to stick to under 1500 cals a day, and fit in some type of exercise, wii fit, walking or my twice weekly aerobics class. I need the support and encouragement. I can get so easily distracted and forget things....

    I am aiming to lose 20 pounds by the end of June, and I have 16 to go. If I lose one pound or more each week I will get there no problem.

    30 pounds would be a 2.5 pound loss per week which would definitely be challenging. I'm aiming for slow and steady so that I form habits to keep the weight off. I'd love to be 30 pounds down by September (my birthday) though :)

    My youngest little bit is 7 weeks so I am ready to start my weight loss journey. I am currently breastfeeding so its challenging counting calories. So we are going on vacation the 2nd week of June and I would love to be down 20-lbs by then. That would put me a little below my pre-pregnancy weight.

    I *need* to lose that amount too before July / August for my brothers wedding. At the moment I have visions of people saying to each other
    "Who is his sister?"
    "Its the fat one over there."

    OR

    in the future when people are looking back at the photo albums I don't want to be the big fat one on the photos!!!

    I have just about 30 lbs to lose to my happy weight, and I'd like to be at least 25 lbs of the way there by my birthday. (if I get 26 off from now, I plan to get myself a tattoo!)

    I'm losing more a few lbs per week still, but I can't see losing that much by then... I'm more of a slow and steady person. 15-20 would make me happy. I haven't introduced and serious exercise except yoga so far

    ME! I would love to lose my 30lbs by July and already have that as my goal, and I am a vegetarian riding the fence on vegan! Maybe you could share your diary so I can get menu ideas.

    I'm in! I've been struggling to really make any sort of dent in my weight loss- I can't seem to get it together, even though I think I'm doing great- the scale isn't so agreeable and it's frustrating! I feel like I've been trying to loose weight most of my life and I am so ready to find out what it feels like to be happy in my skin! Maybe a challenge as such is just what I need! Let's do it! And anyone wanting to add me... please do so! Thanks for starting this and Good luck to everyone! :)
