    My name is Jill and I'm currently at 133, up 3 lbs the past couple of weeks. I'm trying to reverse directions this time, and move in a downwardly direction. I like to run and do yoga, and I'm sucker for potato chips...especially salt and vinegar.

    Hey! My name is Brittany and I am from Starkville, MS! We are also doing a biggest loser challenge at work! So, I figure if I have two places to be accountable, than I will be more likely to lose the weight! I am currently 188 lbs. I love mexican and sushi! I want to be down to 150 lbs! by April! Good luck to every one!

    Week 1- 188

    I would LOVE to join!!!
    My name is Nicole, my current weight is 233 and I actually don't enjoy exercising unless I am playing a sport. (I have a hard time running/walking for "no" purpose) I recently got a chocolate lab puppy, so I am hoping he will assist me with my exercising. :-) I definetly think being held accountable is going to help me loose weight! I am getting married June 26th of this year and would love to loose as much weight as I possibly can!! Good Luck everyone!

    Hi! I'd love to join. I need someone to hold me accountable!!

    My name is Sherry...I'm at about 212, which is the heaviest I've ever been. I'm so happy it's a new year! I just got back from LA and I was so tired of saying, "Aw, that <insert super hot piece of clothing here> is cute, I can't wait to lose weight so I can wear something like that." I'm SO ready for this!

    Hi,

    I think I missed a previous post with the rules and weigh-in information, but I'd love to join anyway. The more motivation I can find, the better!

    My name is Heather, I'm 26 yrs. old and currently weigh 201 lbs. I volunteer with a therapeutic horseback riding program and Special Olympics. I recently discovered I *gasp* enjoy running and snowshoeing. I'm also addicted to buying new workout DVDs!

    Count me in!!!

    Hi, my name is Tabitha but I go by Tab. I'm currently 251 and I can relate to many of you when you say that you don't like exercising! But this is a new year and I'm working on a new, more positive me!! I think that having a group for support and motivation is going to be great! As for my favorite food, I guess I would have to say Mexican! I wish all of you good luck in your weightloss journey!

    I would love to join! I love The Biggest Loser and can't wait for the new season to start. I'm 36, a mom of 3, I work full time and also go to school. I really need the motivation so I'm excited about this challenge. I pretty much love all food, but my weakness is chocolate. My current weight is 187 pounds and my goal is 150 by summertime.

    Hello! I am Theresa and I am at 160. I've been on this site on and off for quite a while, but this is my first post and my first active participation with a group! I am looking forward to this! My main exercise is walking home from work, but I want to see what I am capable of if I really put my mind to it. I still want to be happy and have fun doing it. Lifestyle, right? :smile: My favorite food is pasta, but thankfully my husband doesn't care for it, so that keeps me in check! Thanks!
