I'm Vikki, 36 years old with about 80 pounds to lose. I've already lost 34, but can feel myself creeping back up a bit. I want to be healthier by Christmas. It's an ambitious goal, but I know it's doable as long as I track, track, track. Welcome, friends!

Happy Friday Everyone. I am so happy to have found this website and this group. I am definitely on board to lose 10 pounds by Christmas. I am finally committed to making the lifestyle changes required to living a healthier and more active life. My current weight is 250 pounds and I would like to lose 80 pounds. I am still searching to see what type of meal plans (don't want to use the word diet) I am going to follow to help me reach my goal, so please feel free to offer suggestions.0

Hi Everyone, This is great! I have been overwhelmed with so much great food and friends and celebratory glasses of wine. It has been a fun ride, but it's time to switch gears. I began an exercise program today, and it felt fantastic! I am so happy to join the challenge with all of you beautiful people. Here's to Christmas 0

Hello I'm Jordan! I am new to MFP and have recently commited to making a change in my life in regards to my weight. I am 21 years old and have a 3 year old daughter, I work full time and attend undergrad full time. I am 5 ft tall weighing in at 228lbs. My starting weight before I found this website was 238lbs. My goal weight would be about 150lbs (for now). I am so excited to participate in this mini goal and hopes for it to motivate me to stay on track.
Soooo how does this work?0 -
Welcome! I see this group as a place to check-in at least weekly with your progress on the scale, as well as non-scale victories. Post about any challenges you encounter to get help from the group and let us all know when you're making good choices so we can share in your joy!
This looks like a great group of motivated individuals. Let's do this!!0 -
Let's keep in contact each day for support and encouragement. I've found its so much easier to stick with something when you have a great support system! Feel free to add me as a friend, let's do this!0

Hello everyone! I haven't yet gotten involved in the community here; this seems like a great place to start. I made a promise to myself at the beginning of this last summer to reach 120 lbs by Christmas. Now that I only have 9 lbs left to lose, this seems like the perfect group for me.
We can do this! -10 lbs would be a great Christmas gift.0 -
Hi! This sounds like a great mini goal and just what I need before Christmas arrives. I've lost 38 lbs since joining the site, a little over halfway to my initial goal of 75, and am in need of extra motivation to see this thing through the holidays. Good luck, everyone!0
