    I'm up for the challenge. I'm 32 with 3 kids and would like to lose 7 pounds by Valentine's Day to reach a mini-goal of 157 lbs. I'm 5'5" and at 164 lbs after Christmas. Can't wait to have a group to work with. I will post my measurements when I have more time ;)

    This is a fantastic idea! I don't know my current measurements, but my goal is to go from 145 - 135 pounds by Valentine's Day.

    Ok - this is THE FIRST post that I've ever responded too....But could really use the motivation of this Challenge!!

    I'm about to be 35 years old (next week), I'm 5' 5" and my current weight is 142 (never thought I'd post THAT on a public forum) - Don't have my measurements but I wear a size 10.

    Goal weight by Valentines day 135....

    Thank you!

    That's an awesome idea.

    I'm 5'2", 23 years old, and looking to reach a goal weight loss of at least 6.9 pounds by Valentine's Day - getting me down to 230 pounds.

    My current measurements are:
    Starting Weight: 236.9
    Goal Weight: 230
    Chest: 45"
    Waist: 40"
    Hips: 50"
    Thighs: 30"

    This will be my first official group to work with on MFP. I'm excited and I can't wait. =].

    Can I join? I'm 25 yrs old. 5'2'. I was 145 about a week ago, but I'll be honest I've been enjoying my mom's cooking since I'm visiting for the first time in a long time, I'm sure I've gained some weight. I will post my initial weight on Monday when I go back to my scale. My goal is to go back down to 130 lbs. I'll decide if more needs to be lost when I get there. For the Valentine's Day challenge I would like to lose 10 lbs.

    How does check-in work?

    Hey, I'm in! CW:127.6
    I'm an awful binger, have been my whole life. 5 months ago I was at my goal weight for the first time in over 10 years (fluctuating between 108-110) Then everything went to hell. I haven't been able to get back on track. I keep trying but I just fail and fail. Today I binged again and I'm just so sick of this, it's ruining my life. So here's to a fresh start.
    Good luck everyone.

    omg! another GPer? I have gastroparesis too and I've gained 30lbs because of it. I desperately want to lose it and I'm having a devil of a time doing so. only reason I'm losing weight right now is because I've got severe irritation and inflammation of the stomach and esophagus because os the gastroparesis and I'm on a liquid diet. ugh! not the healthiest way to lost weight but I'll take all the help I can get. lol

    Hi my name is Kristen. My husband told me last Valentine's day that what he wanted for next year was for me to be in a bikini on the beach sipping a pina colada. Well...of course it only made me mad, hurt and all that self pitty stuff too. It took me to Memorial May 29th to even consider trying to change. I joined MFP at that time but, I wasn't committed until I spent 4 days with my childhood best friend in the hospital where she almost died. Those few days iin October changed my life. That is another story so...

    My current weight is

    CW 185.2
    GW 170 ( For Feb. 14 :smile: )

    arm - 12inches

    bust - 42inches

    waist - 38.5inches

    hips - 43inches

    thighs - 21inches

    calves - 16inches

    I would like to join! I don't have my measurements this second but I can put them up later today. I know that my goal is to lose 10 pounds by V-day which should be completely do-able because it's not even 2 pounds a week.

    Go us!
