    Hey everyone, I'm Jessica. I'm 26 and 5' 8" with quite a lot still to lose. I'm a desk-jockey nine-to-fiver with a husband and I'm in the middle of remodeling/renovating just about my entire house.

    I'm currently one of the last members standing in the June challenge... Here's to making it through Sunday!

    I'm Mary Lee. I just participated in the 20 a day challenge for May and again for June. I'm not losing a lot of weight but because we were required to exercise at least 20 minutes a day i've been more consistent with exercise than I ever have been in my life. My husband and I walk on avg at least 4 k a day. I am feeling a difference in my clothes.
    I look forward to being accountable.

The only exercise I am able to do so it is my sanity through this . It will be 2 weeks Sunday for me . I guess I am expecting to much because I want to see 50 pounds gone by summers end.

    Hi everyone. My name is Nancy and I am 45 years old. I had lost 85 lbs in a two year period and went from 240 lbs. to 155 lbs. I have gained back 15 lbs. and am struggling to get it off before it becomes more!! Would love any motivation and ideas from anyone. The accountability of this group will be great in keeping me on track. My exercise is not an issue but my snacking and sweets is definitely something I need work on. Good luck to everyone!!

    Hi Everyone.

    My name is Chrystal. I am excited about joining the group because I end up giving myself a cheat moment everyday. This will hold me accountable. I am nervous and excited.

    Hi There Turnaround2012 here. I have been really serious about MFP for about 2 months now and I am really enjoying my journey to health and fitness.

    I am married and have a wonderful daughter.

    I travel in a sales job so I have to be very focused about eating right and working out on the road - I just can't "take days off" because I am out of town.

    I am intrigued by the very strong accountability here and I could not resist the challenge :-)

    I just joined MFP today. I am motivated by rules, so I thought this challenge would be a good way for me to kick start my program.

    I screwed up about half way through last month, but was honestly happy I made it that long. I found the challenge really helped me stay on track, and I was really bummed to report I was out. These past two weeks I have stopped exercising consistently and eating the budgeted calories..I really needed the challenge to stay on track! I'm excited to be back!

    Welcome, everyone!

    Cass, I'm glad you're back. I didn't make it the entire month of June, either, and I too realized how difficult it is to stay on track once you're out. I'm thinking about joining a separate group--in addition to this one--so that I'll have a group to fall back on in case I don't make it again.

    Hello,

    I'm Belinda, 29 years old, married with an 8 year old daughter. I've been on and off MFP for about 6 months and I'm really wanting to get back into it so I'm really excited about this challenge (and nervous truth be told!!). I have a few medical issues that according to the doctors are all the result of being overweight (which I think is crap) so I'm just trying to lose weight, while pestering them to look at other reasons in the meantime.

    Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other through the coming month!!

    Good luck everyone,
    Belinda

    Hi! My name is Lynn, 47, crazy busy full-time working mom of DS 14 and DD 12. Today, I celebrate my 1st year anniversary here on MFP. Although I’ve lost the ‘bulk’ of my excess weight, I’ve slowly begun loosing focus on what needs to be done to make this journey a successful one. In the last couple of months, I’ve been starting to hum ‘I’ve lost that loving feeling’ so this is the group for me! Sending out my very best wishes for success in this awesome challenge! Good luck everyone! :)
