Hey. Would love to lose 10lbs by NYE.
Yesterday marked 6 weeks before I fly to Thailand so beach bod by then would be amazing.
Getting into my weights at the moment. Started going to body pump classes and got myself a PT to really push me in the right direction. Also I recommend the 30DS if people really want to see some results by new year

Hi Everyone,
I am Hayley, from New Zealand.
I would like to lose 15lbs by NYE - to prove to (remind) myself I can do it.
My favourite colour is purple
My favourite season is autumn - such a pretty time of year
My favourite food is Chicken breast marinated with ginger and honey, stir fried with bok choy.. mmm...
My favourite tv series is Firefly
My workout routine is walking - it gives me freedom, I can do it anywhere, with someone or alone, with music or without, and I get to explore some stunning locations and call it exercise.0 -
Hiya! I'm from the UK - home is up north but I'm currently at uni in the south.
My favourite colours are purple and green (though not together!)
I don't have a favourite season, but I intensely dislike being cold and wet at once, so the autumn-winter changeover isn't great.
I can't choose a favourite food!
Favourite TV series has to be Doctor Who, along with Walking With Dinosaurs and Great British Bake Off.
I love walking, and going swimming.
I'm looking to lose 7lbs by NYE - not a lot, but I also know I've got a lot of social weekends coming up where eating perfectly isn't going to be my main priority!0 -
Hi everyone, I'm new to myfitnesspal and only joined this week!
I live in France and am 43 years old - ooh arr!!!!
My main reason/goal for joining was to lose a stone (14lb) for new year - that would be the best thing ever!
Long, long, long way to go after that, but a starts a start, and this time I feel I'm approaching this with the right frame of mind.
I always start diets but end up giving up after a week or so, so would appreciate any advice or motivation to keep me going.
My favourite colours are lilac and turqoise
I like to do cross-stitching, knitting and crochet
I LOVE food - all food, any kind, you name - thats the problem!
looking forward to being intouch with new people and take on board and appreciate any advice.0 -
Hello All!
Thanks for sharing your journey with me.
I would like to lose 7 pounds by New Year's Eve.
I am from Montana. My favorite colors are turquoise and lime green. My favorite season is spring because winter is harsh here and springtime in the Rockies is beautiful. I love blueberries, cherries, and other seasonal produce that I can't have year-round. I grow a huge garden, so pretty much anything fresh is a real delight as well. I have not had television in about 3 or 4 years by choice, so I don't have a favorite TV show per se. I'd rather be outdoors than watching TV!
I enjoy hiking, walking on an aggressive incline (indoors or out), swimming laps, walking for fun, and lifting weights. Functional fitness is huge for me and I work out for LIFE, not necessarily for weight loss. I'm going to get back into jogging this spring with the Couch to 5K program for a trail run in May. I'm also doing 30 Day Shred.0 -
Hello! My name is Diana and I'm currently living in Western Massachusetts.
My weight loss has stalled in the past month (I've started lifting weights, so I'm hoping this has something to do with it) and I'd like to be down another 5 pounds by NYE.
I like most colors but I don't wear much yellow or yellow tones. The fall is pretty great and I love summer. Can't pin down one kind of food. Hmmmm.....I make my own spinach and garlic pizza. It's darn tasty! As for TV, I mainly stick to British mystery series.
I try to work out every day but lately it's been 5-6 days a week. I lift 2 days a week and jog (5-6 mph) for 3-4 miles OR walk (4 mph) for 3-4 miles. I like to give my knees a bit of a break.
Good luck to all!0 -
Hey Everyone.
I would like to lose at the min. 5 pounds so I will pledge to lose 7 pounds. That seems realistic for me.
I am from olympia WA, currently residing in Jacksonville FL.
I don't have a favorite color but I guess if I have to put an answer down it would be blue since I wear it litterally every day of the week. (it is the color of my uniform).
My favorite season? Well from where I am from I love the fall, it is so pretty there, but where I am currently living, the winter. It is really the only cool time and comfortable to run in.
My favorite food...hhmmmmm there so many. Lets keep it really general, italian foods. YUMMY! It is my heritage and I keep to it a lot. Terrible for weight loss.
My favorite TV series would have to be The Big Bang Theory, and anything with Gordon Ramsey in the kitchen, and some Bravo shows.
My favorite workout routines are spin class, wieghts and I do like the cross ramp trainer thing that they have at the gym. Running is one of my least favorites but I have to do it because of my job. I get tested twice a year on it.0 -

I belly dance & want to perform & teach actively in the future, I'm working to be a clinical neuropsychologist, & I want to learn many languages.

Hi! My name is Winter and I am a Grade Two teacher living up in Saskatchewan, Canada! I am hoping to lose the 15lbs as well.
My favorite season is Winter of course... haha. I love to hit up the mountains for snowboarding at least a few times throughout the season. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother.
As for workout routines, I really enjoy the Jillian MIchaels routines. I have never completed a full 30 day workout but maybe I can add that to my NYE weightloss goal. I also have started running. I have never been a runner so it has been tough. When I started I was only able to run a minute and that felt like death, I am now up to 8 minutes. It doesn't sound like much but it's a huge accomplishment for me. Tonight I am hoping for that 10 minute mark!0 -

Hello everyone.
I want to lose 12 lbs by New Years Eve, but I'd be happy with 10. (I'd be happy with anything after a recent plateau that led to something close to giving up). I think this will be the jump start I need to get back on track.
I'm from Homewood, Illinois, USA which is just south of Chicago
I don't really have a favorite color
My favorite season is fall
my favorite food is Asian - sweet and sour chicken, fried rice, Pad Thai, but I can't have it anymore, especially if I'm going to drop 12 lbs by NYE!
Television series - I should say something smart but truthfully, I like 30 Rock, Don't Trust the B... I like cleverly written sitcoms and I also have an unfortunate obsession with Dance Moms.
My favorite workout is walking my dogs, because it's good for them too and riding my bike. But now that it's getting cold and wintery - I've got to move it inside. I use the elliptical but I'm looking for something new that I'll enjoy more. Maybe I'll try a zumba video next.0 -
