    This is exactly what I need! I do much better when others are holding me accountable! :happy:

    I am 5'4" and as of this morning weighed in at 131.8. I would love to lose 10lbs by the end of April! I am going on vacation mid May and really want the weight gone early so that I can buy some new clothes!

    I am good for Friday weigh ins! Thanks so much for starting this. It looks like you have inspired a lot of people!

    Great that there's so many of us.. we could nearly have a buddy system in operation so that nobody gets lost along the way :smile: (only joking).. (well, sorta..)

    I had cleared out my friends list as it has been a while since I was actively on here anyway.. none of them would remember me I'm sure.. so now my friends consist of only those who added me from this thread! (All 6 or 7.. Miss popular they'll call me :laugh: )

    If anyone else from here wants to add me, please feel free, we can motivate eachother on our walls too!!

    Weigh in tomorrow.. dum dum duuuum.

    Ok.. so I'm 1lb down.. not so bad a start :happy:

    (Will probably need to re-think my end of April goal but sure may aswell reach for the stars for now!)

    Anyone else weigh in? Or get their start weight even?

    I weighed in @ 122.8. Not sure if that was correct or not because my scale keeps messing up. I'm getting new one this weekend. It'll tell me 127 then it'll zero out and I'll step on it again and it'll say 123. LOL I wanna believe the lower number, but who knows. If the number was correct that would mean I lost about .08 this week!!

    i am on day 67 of 130 day program. down 10.8 pounds since january 21st, goal day is may 31st, i have a 1000 calorie a day deficit and workout 3 times a day, plus insanity in the am.

    i went from 163 to (!!!) 128. My goal is to get my body fat between 15-18% which is looking to be about 115-120 pounds.

    I would love to have some of you ladies on my friends list. i am a little over a week into insanity, and i update ALL the time.

    I warn you though, i talk about everything on my feed, i like when others talk too. i have substituted MFP for my facebook for the most part, and that has allowed me to integrate mfp into my daily life, and the people on my friends list are FRIENDS =D i want you to interact, complain, brag, and let us talk you out of that cake your craving! we all have weak moments, which is why we have mfp friends!!

    i had the same problem with my old scale... it would read 3 completely different weights within like 3 minutes. ridiculous. give in and buy a new scale!!! i bought the weight watchers, its a glass scale that gives bf% and bmi and everything, about 40$, and totally worth it, i LOVE IT. its so nice to have consistency. especially because i weigh myself eachday, but only log each week.

    Yessss! Talk to me girls!!! The last 10 are the toughest, but it's totally worth it...that's where the difference really shows! The diet this month is next month's body!! Want that SUMMER BODY! Gonna make it now! Here's to looking good in shorts, and swimsuits, and not putting off that pool party invitation! Maybe you'll throw one :) And to hearing those words "have you lost weight?" Let's just do this already!

    Count me in! Technically, I have 8 pounds to go to reach my goal weight, but losing 10 definitely wouldn't hurt:laugh: I'm just hoping to be there by the beginning of May!!

    I have problems with my water intake to, have to push myself on that.

    EXACTLY! I have to remind myself. I'm doing better because instead of my fat free milk that I love, I'm trying to replace it with water when I eat dinner and lunch, most days.

    weighed in yesterday at 141.8, having lost about 1 lb in the last week.....and, just got back from "running" a 5k (quotes because I don't run I sort of jog, wheeze, walk , hobble, jog, wheeze, repeat...... *snicker*)....so, on the right track :drinker:

    Hey ladies,

    Just came across this group and it is exactly what I'm looking for! I'm going on a bike trip in early May and my mom told the trip that I am ten pounds lighter than I currently am -- definitely some crazy motivation! I'm around 128.5 lbs now -- losing about a pound a week, but trying to get down to 120. Could definitely use some support -- glad I found y'all.

    So awesome! Congratulations! Thing is... whether you wheez, jog, run or whatever... YOU DID IT!!! Admirable. I know how much work it was for me when I did my 5k the end of October 2011.
