    When I hit my UGW I am looking forward to fitting into the hotpants I bought from Hooters (Miami) last year. There is no WAY I will wear them out in public but just to be able to get them on will be AMAZING!

    Good luck everybody!! XX

    I'm just starting MFP. I joined a while ago but I never did anything but sign up. So I'm very new to this.
    Please count me in on the challenge. My husband & I are going on a cruise in November and I need to lose 40-45 pounds but that's not reasonable so I'm hoping for 20.
    Thanks for setting up the challenge.
