    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.

    xx

    Happy birthday!

    Thanks! It isn't actually until June 2nd and I've already been told that I'm going out for 4 different meals so I have a feeling this challenge for me won't really be starting until next week... But hey ho! I'm sure I'll have a great 4 day birthday! :-)

    Hi guys!

    I'm Loops, I'm 36, 5'7" and I live in Gloucestershire in the UK.

    I adore Halloween even though it isn't that big over here. Last year we went to a party in town with friends and I was a vampire... a fat vampire, this year we're probably going to the same party but I want to look very different from last year :happy: I've already sketched the outfit I want to make, and I hope it'll look as good on me as it does on paper for a change, I might share it nearer the time :wink:

    GW: 185 roughly

    I'm Theresa, I'm shooting more for the end of September when I'll be getting married but Halloween works too! I'd love to meet this goal before my birthday in november.

    I'm 27 and 5'7"

    Challenge goal: 180 (giving myself some room for honeymoon)

    I've been having some trouble losing weight or inches despite deficit and regular lifting so I'm hoping that frequently checking in with a group will help keep me from throwing in the towel. It's hard to be running and getting nowhere.

    Hi, I'm Annette, I live in South Florida, and I'm a sugar and carb addict. I'm 37 and 5'9"

    SW 184.5
    CW 182.8
    GW 145

    Battling type 2 diabetes; trying to lower my carb count

    If I lost 40 I would be almost back to pre-kids weight. I was actually 135 but I don't need to be there. I liked the curves I had at 145.

    The biggest satisfaction would be me, arriving to this yearly Halloween party I go to, fully masked so no one could recognize me, and then pulling a big reveal!!! That is my little fantasy in my head and it works for me so I'm going with it!

    Hi, my name is Michelle. I'm 29 with two kids, and I'm from Western NY. My current weight is 175, I was 185 when I started just over a month ago. Losing 40 lbs by halloween would put me at or very near my goal weight.
