I am a post grad, premedical student who is looking to lose the last 15 or so pounds! I have been using MFP for almost 2 years, and have had a lot of success with leading a healthier lifestyle since I graduated from an unrealistic, college life, in 2011
. I have been struggling recently with losing weight and need a new challenge to help propel me from this weigh loss plateau. Everyone's stories sound motivating and inspiring... I look forward to the week long challenges ahead!

About yourself: I'm a stay-at-home mom, married to my best friend for 18 years. We have 6 kids and I homeschool them while Dear Husband earns the money to feed our darling locusts! Counting calories isn't working on it's own, so three days ago I put myself on a modified paleo-style diet. I'm hoping that this is what my body needs.0 -

About yourself: I'm from Calgary, AB, and about 2 years ago I was topping the scales at 275. I started boxing, and slowly got down to 240ish. I then plateaued. A co-worker showed me MFP, and since then I've been steadily dropping weight. My goal is to get to 180 (or lower depending on how much I have to lose) and get jacked in the process so I can compete with my boxing. I'm a competitive person and always up for a challenge.0 -

About yourself: I live in Montreal, QC. I was diagnosed with depression about a year ago which has been really difficult to deal with but have really been an emotional eater for most of my life. Had a doctor's appointment yesterday which really hit home how fast I have been piling on the pounds, so I am doing something about it! Yay! Go me!0 -

I'm a Georgia Peach, I love Atlanta! I have always struggled with weight, I feel like Oprah. Im skinny one year and fat the next. If someone were to look through my facebook pictures, they would have a field day watching me go up and down! ... I am graduating from college this December with a degree in CHild and Family Development. I want to go to law school or grad school, I need to decide quick! I am stressed out about post-grad life. I used to make unhealthy weight loss choices when I was under stress so THIS TIME i decided to do it right by exercise and eating right, I feel like food is now the only thing I can control. I feel like being in a group will keep me motivated to make healthy decisions!
GOOD LUCK SKINNYS!0 -

Just recently joined MFP and I especially love the phone app! I generally eat a very healthy diet but fall off the wagon once the sun goes down. I want to get back to eating for health and satisfaction, but not do recreational eating any more. I also need to get my body moving, and want to at least start rebounding where it's so good for helping your lymphatic system cleanse itself.
I'm married to a great guy (who wants to do better at nighttime eating), and we have a 19 year old son, and a 15 year old daughter.0 -

I've been doing this for a while. I've been at Peertrainer, My Plate, Livestrong. Then I bought a Bodymedia Link Armband since I can't seem to really lose weight. I exercise and I eat well - not great - I'm human after all. Now BMF and MFP can link. I like the bar code scanner here. I found I was having to create way to many foods at Bodymedia. I recently started tracking my water with an ap on my phone. 99 oz is a lot of water to drink in one day.0 -

About myself: Hello! Welp, the Navy says I've gotta drop some chub before joining up (well they said it much friendlier than that), so I am trying to get under the 167, almost 20 pounds. My weight has never been normal, I was a chubby baby, skinny kid, anorexic teenager and now overweight adult -____- I know 20lbs is harder to drop than because I have less to lose, but I am so ready to do this, I am farrrrr beyond ready to start my life in the Navy!
