in Introduce Yourself
In 2012 I made the goal of losing 50lbs. Well, I have about 30lbs to go in about 10 hours.

So, I'm starting over!

Here's to losing 40lbs in 2013!

I'm looking for other friends with similar goals and starting points.

I am a 25 year old woman, and I currently weigh 175 with a goal of 135. I am getting married in September and would like to weigh 145 then.

Who's in?!?

    Same here with starting over! I am 32 and I need to lose about 60 lbs. I am starting the new year with group exercises 4x a week. And of course changing the eating and lifestyle habits I have fallen into. After 6 kids and 2 back to back twin pregnancies it is finally my time to make a change and focus on MOM a little :) I could use plenty of encouragement!!!

    I'm starting the new year at 168 or so and still have 28 pounds to get to my 140 goal. After losing 70 pounds so far losing weight isn't my new year's resolution for the first time in my life but I'm still plugging away at it. I'm 27 btw.

    It seems that every year we make the same promise to ourselves and every year we have another excuse. Not this year!

    Let's do this MFPals! Whether it's 10 lbs or 210 lbs - let's motivate and support each other until we reach our goals and beyond!

    Anyone can add me. I get my greatest motivation watching and helping others succeed - but sometimes I need a kick in the butt every now and then too. :bigsmile:

    Bring it on 2013!

    I would love to start over in 2013! I need to lose 40 lbs this year, we want to have baby number two, but I want to get to a healthier weight before I do. I tried late 2012, in October, but was unsuccessful during "the season". Time to start FRESH! I'm with you!!!
