    I'm in it for 15lbs too, seems terrifying but I'm finally feeling motivated after struggling with my weight for my whole teen and adult life :happy:

    I have just come back to MFP and have done well this week. My goal is to stay focused with the program. I would like to lose 9 but realistically shooting for 6.

    8 lbs! If I can continue to lose 1.5 lbs per week, it will happen :)

    I'm 4 pounds from my next goal so that would be great.

    Since I need to get back on track and I'm a slow loser, I'm going to pledge 4. :happy:

    I am going to be cautious/realistic and aim for 9 pounds (1.5 pounds per week).

    Will there be a group set up for this, or will we just use this thread?

    Hi all!
    I found this awesome app yesterday and it's exactly what I need for help. Now I just need some friends to share the road to a lighter body with.
    I can sign for 15 lbs and I know it's doable before Ney Year (even though Xmas is between)
    Last year I managed to lose 40 lbs in 2 months (jan/feb) by following a pretty cool diet/way of living.
    I have managed to keep my new weight until 3 months ago where I started gaining the weight slowly.
    Last week it hit me that I have gained 11 lbs of the 40 I had lost so now it's time to loose them again as a first step.

    The plan is very simple: to exercise 4 days a week and walk 3 days (1 hr), and ofc eat less calories than I use.
    as Exercise I run or swim for about 40 minutes, and occasionally I hit the gym at work with my colleagues (btw I hate the gym!)

    If anyone has similar goals and want to have a distance buddy as a motivator and exchanging ideas don't hesitate to add me!

    Also let me know if anyone wants tips on how/what to eat (stay away form the carbs! I have done this before and it works)

    Learn to love the gym... it is your friend :glasses:
    And good for you for noticing you were slipping before gaining everything back! Way to be on top of it :) I do low carb lifestyle amd LOVE it. still losing but that is the plan for another 30-35lbs. I am nervous about maintaining but I know I will find a balance that will suit me well.

    I'd LIKE to lose nothing, because I've hit goal. But since I may not be so lucky, most likely a couple or three pounds up to maybe 5 will likely be the case.
