Good luck to every one!

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!

Hello - hope I'm not too late. My name is Kristy and my current weight is 209lbs. I live in the Bay Area, California. My favoriate food is..pasta and bread and soda. I can't eat it too much anymore...I got lab band surgery in October and including the presurgery weight I had to lose I am down 50lbs..so my goal is to keep up the motivation and dedication.

I try to work out 3X a week. Have been doing The Biggest Loser Shred 30 and Cardio Max. It's fun and I feel the burn. :embarassed:

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and let's lose the weight!:flowerforyou:

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? My favorite food is pasta, but thankfully my husband doesn't care for it, so that keeps me in check! Thanks!

Hey I'm Megan... from Melbourne, Australia I'm looking forward to getting some extra motivation. The only reason I want to loose weight is for myself, and sometimes when there's too much going on, or life is getting me down, I forget about why I'm doing this. I'm sick of people telling me that I don't need to loose weight... because it's not so much about that as it is feeling good about myself. Which I rarely ever do.

Anyway... my favourite food?! Mrs. Fields choc chip cookies... they are heaven

I actually love going to the gym. I love being challenged. So this will be fantastic for me I think! And hopefully I'll make some long distance friends along the way! :happy:

My starting weight, well yesterday it was 65kg, but today it's 67kg :ohwell: I hope that it's just because I'm feeling unwell today, and not a sign of things to come! My goal is to get to around 55kg. I'm not setting a time limit, although next summer would be ideal!

I'll leave it there for now :flowerforyou: good luck everyone!

P.S. Kelly, -35 degrees sounds wonderful, we're hitting around 40 degrees here... it's unbearable!!! Although I've never been somewhere that cold!!!

Rheign here. My current weight is 183; I hope to drop another 40-54lbs. I LOVE biking and fortunately I live in a climate that permits me to ride all year long. WOOT!

Megan- 40 C NOT FAIR. I think I need to visit Austrlia. Its warmed up to -26 today, so why am I complaining. I am planning a warm trip this winter, but probably not until April.
May we all be Biggest Losers and get to our goals !
