    ok so we need to weigh in by Wednesday every week? I can do any day--just wanna do what's easiest for everyone.

    right now I've just started working with a cross fit trainer doing one on ones. she changes it up every time which is cool but I definitely thought I was gonna puke a couple of times. the feeling of accomplishment is amazing though so don't let that scare you.

    i'm really excited for this group. I hope everyone will stay active. the last group I was in fizzled out after a week!!!!

    Hey ladies I'd love to join in if I can! Everyone feel free to add me :)

    SW:187 (before mfp)
    CW:175

    I would love to get down to the 150s if I could! That's only 16 pounds in 9 weeks, less that 2 a week. Very doable. I would be back to weighing what I did when I was 16!

    Edit: By the way, I'm currently doing the 30DS, but doing the exercises twice (finishing the 3rd stage of level 1 and doing all 3 again before cooldown) That way when I edge up to Level two, I can start by replacing only one with level 2, before I step up to doing two run throughs of level 2 every morning.

    Hey I would love to join too. I love eating which I never used to when I was younger always 9 stone hence the huge weight gain as I have found my love of bad foods! I would like to be around 140- 145 in 9 weeks. I am now 163. I just wondered if you guys had any exercise regimes that I can do a home?

    I'm on holiday in 8 weeks & have been static for weeks, I weigh 165 lbs (my goal for today was initially 150lbs) with ultimate goal is 133lbs (9½ stone) but can't see me achieving that for my holiday - being apple shape I've been looking at bikinis with BIG pants!
    Realistically I should be able to reach 150lbs HELP!!

    Is this just staying as a topic or will it go to a group so it's easy to find?
    I'm still finding my way round as (when I remember) I've generally only used MFP to log my food intake

    Is it too late to join? I'll weigh in again tomorrow but my current weight is 142 and my goal is 130. I'm 5'7" and 29 years old. I switched to MFP from another tracking site in January but this is my first time exploring the message boards. I'm hoping having some motivation will help me break through this plateau!

    Hi, I'm Jen and I would like to join as well, if it isn't too late! I have been using MFP since February and I guess I need a little motivation and accountability to really lose some weight.

    So I weighed in yesterday, and fairly bummed to report my weight was 191. I just can't seem to get out of the 190's for good. I know my eating was (and is) off track last week, but I'm not eating enough to gain that much am I? Sigh.... Here's to another day and week!

    Ooo! Lots of new people! :drinker: Great to see you all! Your enthusiasm is pumping me up! I will add you all to the chart!

    The last 2 days have been a little food-filled with my brother's birthday and all. Back to better choices and working out again tomorrow. I'm hoping to make a grand comeback!

    LW: 172.2
    CW: 172.6

    I thought it was a loss at first, but then I realized what my last weight was. :laugh: I will check in with you all again tomorrow. Remember to post your successes along the way!

    Well I weighed myself this morning and I have gained a pound. So instead of being 155 I am 156. But I guess I knew that was going to happen :-(. This is April vacation week and my four kids are home. I haven't been able to exercise like I want to with dental appointments I had made for them and playdates for my youngest. So I am out of my routine, but I am happy that I haven't strayed away from my "diet". I've been eating right and having no junk food. So hopefully when they go back to school next week , I'll get back in my routine and I'll be good to go. I feel at my age I have to work harder now at 44 than I had to work at 20. So as long as I put in the effort I will see some changes. But good luck to everyone on this weight loss challenge. and God bless. :-)

    Hi I'd like to join! I do zumba once a week (although sometimes I don't go) and I do aquafit once maybe twice a week. I also use the bike and do walking. Im 5foot5 and currently weigh 161lbs I'd like to eventually get down to 135, but for now I'm happy getting down to 145 for my holiday on the 24th June. I find even a little bit of motivation goes a long way so I really appreciate the group as a whole. :) happy healthiness guys!!

    Yesterday I didn't go to zumba, I did an hour of walking instead. Today I am going to aqaufit! And I might do some freestyle swimming afterwards.
