    I'm doing the shred and walking everyday on a up hill path for 4-5 miles per day!

    I'm also doing 30 day shred, but I haven't been doing it everyday. I am pretty out of shape, so for me doing it 2-4 times a week right now is the sweet spot! I'll keep increasing it. The main thing I've been doing is REALLY being careful about every.single.thing. I eat and logging everything here as soon as I eat it! So far, it's worked wonders. Down 8 pounds since I started about a week and a half ago.

    I've really started fine tuning my diet and doing the 30ds. I had a baby 4 months ago so I'm still taking things pretty slowly. I think the 20lb goal might be a BIT much for me because I can't drop my calories that low (nursing mama here) but I'm hoping for 10! Next week I hope to find time to start running again.

    Hi,

    21 year old here. There is 59 days left til St. Patricks day. My goal is just 1 lb per week - so I would like to lose 10 lbs by then!

    If you want to be friends with me please add me and just let me know you are joining this so I can motivate you.

    I enjoy yoga and log everything.

    I'm in. I live in Ireland so our weather leaves a lot to be desired.
    I'll aim for 20, although I think it's a shade optimistic for me. :)

    Hey, I'm in. I am 22 and I am 5'1'' and weigh 130. I would love to get down to 110 by then. I redeploy back to the states around then and it would be great to show my family that I haven't been just sitting on my rear this deployment!

    Funny- this was my exact plan before I even saw this! I started almost on the same day the OP did too, figuring 20 pounds in 10 weeks. Since it's my "first" 20 I figured it was doable (as opposed to the "last" pounds you have to lose which will be slower).

    Age:25
    Height: 5'4
    SW (1/5/13)- 170
    CW-165
    GW for 3/17- 150
    UGW- 135-140

    I've been as low as 120 before but I am looking for something more realistic to maintain. MFP put me on 1200 calories but I am trying not to get too caught up in that and staying between 1200-1400. So far it's working. I am excercising for just 25 minutes four days a week right now, but hope to increase as I get stronger.
