    My name is Lindsay and I am from North Dakota. I do not currently have a goal weight, but if I was to loose 40lbs it would put me closer to my recommended weight. I am 25 years old, 5'5" and 205lbs.

    What a timely challenge!

    I would LOVE to lose 40 pounds by Halloween as I'm going to New Orleans for Halloween and Voodoo Fest.
    Plus... 40 pounds would put me very very close to my goal weight

    Hi, I'm Jessica :) I'm 22, 5'2" and 213lbs. My first goal is losing around 40 lbs and I would be so happy to lose that this year (or get close, hehe) The most I do on Halloween is wear kitty ears in public that day but I love the idea of this group :heart: :drinker:

    Hey all!
    My name is Jen and my ultimate weight loss DREAM is to be able to pull off a sexy halloween costume. I am 5'6'' and currently weigh 170 lbs. To be under 130 by then would be unbelievable, but even anywhere close would be so satisfying. We can do this :)

    Hey everyone!
    My name is Danielle and I am from Nevada. I just started here on MyFitnessPal and think this would be a great starter and motivation challenge for me! I need friends on here who I can message when the times get tough so anyone who could use another friend are more then welcome to add me. I am 5' 5" 179lbs and my goal weight is to be about 140 so this will be perfect for me! Thanks guys!

    Hello,

    My name is Shauna, I'm 28 and 5'10. I currently weigh 195lbs which would put me at my goal weight of 155lbs. I'm going to be honest, I'm probably not going to be wearing a sexy costume, but I'd love to look great for the Halloween parties when I see friends who I haven't seen all year. What a great motivator!

    Hi

    I'm Sally and I'm from Sheffield in the UK. I'm 24 (well actually 23 but it's my birthday on Sunday! :-)) I am about 5'4" and currently weigh 80 kgs (176lbs), so my target weight by Halloween (well 26th Oct really as it's my friends wedding) is 62kg (136lbs). I lead a pretty sedentary lifestyle at the moment thanks to 2 years of serious health issues but I'm determined to loose all this weight I've put on in the last couple of years, and this seems like a great challenge. :-)

    Feel free to add me.

    Hi everyone! My name is Cindy and I'm from Prince George, BC. My current weight is 195 and I would love to lose 40 lbs by Halloween. That would get me very close to my goal weight. I have lost about 102 in total, 75 of them since October 2012 when I started MFP. I am huge fan of Halloween, The Walking Dead, anything scary, Stephen King books etc. Soooo jealous of the poster above, spending Halloween in New Orleans!
