I was just thinking earlier today that I needed to find a new way to challenge myself. I am so excited about this group! I am recovering from a foot surgery I had November 8th. I have gained some weight due to the recovery process, and this will be perfect motivation to help me get back on track! Could someone please explain to me how to post photos? Thank you

I was looking for a group for 2013 so this is awesome! I'm 44 years old and I still have 65 pounds to lose. I have already seen the benefit of losing 20 pounds, as I'm in the process of getting off my high BP medications. I joined in early 2012 but didn't think I needed friends on here, but found out I did need support. I started getting serious in August and have not looked back. Good luck everyone now and in 2013 :flowerforyou: 0

im in! i need my ticker to keep moving cause its making me crazy just sitting there for so long, so close to the end...0

Hi! I would love to do this challenge. I have already lost 50lb but I have another 30lb to go!0
-
I'm in! This is what I need to get my mojo back! I lost my first 20lbs (back to pre-pregnancy weight) in Aug-Nov 2011, then regained it all after a torn meniscus derailed me. Now I've lost it again (yay), but my motivation is stalling and I'm getting lazy and eating too much junk. My goal for 2013 is to lose approximately 30-35lbs (at least), to make it to 140 by my 40th birthday in January 2014.
We can do this!!!0 -
Never hurts to have a group of people standing with you cheering you on so I'm in!! I ultimately have another 50 lbs to lose to get to my before 3 kids body. I love all the people that I walk through this journey with they motivate me and hold me accountable for my actions or lack of action. Feel free to add me as a friend.0

Love the idea of a challenge with like minded people, plus my birthday is near end of March and I would love to get to goal by then, so big motivation for me0

Count me in. I had a baby May 24th. I have really just started getting back into changing my lifestyle. I have been struggling with weight for several years. I have 9 more pounds to go to hit pre pregnancy weight and then 38 more after for goal. I am currently 197. I hope to be 179 by March 20, 2013. That will get me out of obese and into overweight category.0

I'm so excited to see you all here! I am 100% confident that every single one of us will completely rock this challenge and look stunning at the end! Please feel free to add me if you'd like.0

i'm definitely in! i need something to help keep me motivated. a little embarrassed to post pictures, but as of now i'm starting out at 187 (i'm a shortie at 5'3) and my ultimate goal is 125.0
-
I suppose I should throw my stats out there while I'm thinking about it. I'm 5'1" and fluctuating between 142-144 pounds currently. My pre-pregnancy weight was 117, but I had no body strength. I'm looking to get to a strong and toned 125.0
-
I am just starting and I need lots of motivation. Im hoping I can get it here. I have a long way to go. Thanks0
-
I'm very motivated and will get there but i'm trying to do it without losing out on anything. if i feel like im missing out then i dont bother so i've been having the occasional christmas treat and big night out but my normal dinners and lunches are good informed choices and i work out alot. I'm ok posting my before photo so I will when its time.
I'm in maintenance throughout christmas so i can enjoy myself. My plan is to remain the exact same weight I am now for the next 3 weeks and then go back at it.
I also need to add that I havent yet shown anybody before photos on this site. I wasnt planning on doing a before and after until i'm at goal but that will be in 2013 so you lucky people will be the first to see my transformation.
Best of luck to all of you. Dont ever give up, giving up is the easy way out!0 -

Hello Everyone,

I've been a while on MFP, but for personal reasons could not be all the time on it. Hope this year will be different.
Anyway...wishing everybody succes on this mission and may the best win!!!0 -

Hi Everyone,
I'm SO excited to be part of a group going into 2013 - and I think it will make a huge difference to me and my journey.
I'm 5'8", 33 years old, and starting at 210 lbs.
My weight fluctuates wildly, but I am hoping to be at 200 lbs by New Year's.

I just joined too! I am 5'9" and I currently weigh 207.5. I am hoping to get down to 145-150. This could be just the motivation I need to keep that ticker going!! When do we need to post before pictures??0

Just joined and looking forward to the challenge! It will be great to have supporters as well as provide support to others during the festive season.
No pictures, but current details are 5'6" and was 293 at my last weigh-in last Saturday. I've lost 37lbs since September and I'd like to keep it going. I'm aiming for 285 by the end of the challenge. Good luck to all!0 -

Starting weight: 250
Current weight:171.4
Goal weight:1500 -
hey everyone! just joined as well. i got down to 163 a few months back, but i've gained back all of the lost weight, and then some. so i'm hoping that from now, and into the new year, that i'll try to keep my eating in order, and that i'll get myself more fit, and that my weight will eventually move down.0
