Howdy, my name is Alethia, 40 yr old mom to 19 year old and 15 year old twins. I'm re-inventing my life..going to college to get my B.S in Psychology. Part of my reinventing my life..includes taking control of my weight after many, many years of being overweight. I ultimate goal is to get down to around 150lbs(I'm 5'7) and maybe run a 5k one day. I just started on this adventure, so this challenge is going to be difficult for me, but I will try my best!0

I am ready for this challenge.. BRING IT ON!! :happy:
Good luck to everyone!

Hi! My name is Miranda and I'm 28. I've been married to my best friend, Tyler for 5 years. This year something snapped within me and I decided that I needed to make some changes in my life. I quit my miserable, thankless job of 6 years in Feb to go in search of something that made me happy and proud to do everyday. I also decided to get a better handle over our finances. So that we can try to get out of debt by our early 30's, buy a home, and start a family. Lastly, myself. Always being a big girl I got used to the weight and thought I was happy with it. After a while I realized that I was in fact very unhappy and have just been accepting my weight as an inevitably. SW: 321.5 GW: 175 CW: 303 I have a long way to go but everything starts with one step.0

Hello, everyone! My name is Jacqui. I am a nineteen year old, full-time college student and waitress, currently working towards a biology degree. I have a cat, who is my life. In my spare time I like to read, paint, cook, bake, watch the Chicago Bears, swim, and camp. I'm really excited to do this challenge because my thighs are the main thing that I want to work on. I've tried to complete challenges like this on my own before, but have failed. I think that being part of a group will keep me at it and keep me dedicated. My goal at this end of this challenge is to be able to fit into a pair of my old shorts
Good luck, everyone! 0 -
Hi everyone. I'm Carla, a 37 year old wife, mother to an amazing 16 month old boy, and a full time pediatric intensive care nurse. My work days are quite long and it will be tough for me to complete this (I leave for work at 0615 and get home after 8:00 pm ). But there's always an excuse, right? I would absolutely love to be able to say August first I finished this challenge!0

Hello my name is Carla and I am a 30 year old teacher. This spring I gained back about 10lbs that I had recently lost, and I am currently down 18 lbs from my all time high. I want to shrink my hips/ butt area, and hopefully this challenge will help.0

Hello, I'm Melynda. I am a wife and mother of 3 girls. I am 39 yrs old, 5'1 and 184.8 lbs. I look forward to this challenge because I think doing it with all of you will help me be accountable.0

I'm not even sure what a squat is, but I'm going to try:) Got a knee that may not like it, but it will probably be good for it in the long run. So this will be good for accountability. My name is Jeanne and I am 61 with 11 grandchildren and have been married for 42 years.

Hi my name is Anne and I live in Munich Germany. I turned 49 in May and when I joined mfp in Jan this year, I gave myself 18 months to lose the extra 37.5lb I was carrying before my 50th birthday in May 2014. Well I've exceed all my targets/goals so much quicker than I first anticipated. I reached my target weight of 143lb by the beginning of May, so 1 whole year before my original target date of May next year. I can move in to the next century of my life, feeling happier, fitter and healthier than ever before.
I joined this group as I want to tone my butt. Hope this works.
Wishing everybody success.
Cheers,
Anne0 -

Hello,
I'm Belinda, I'm 29yo and married with an 8yo daughter. I work full time in finance and have been looking at posters of the squat challenge in our bathrooms at work thinking "I'm totally going to do that" knowing I probly wouldn't without someone else doing it too. So I'm super glad I came across this group! I'm excited to start tomorrow and cant wait to see the end result.
Good luck everyone!0 -
My name is Abby and I have an 8 year old daughter. I have fought pre-eclampsia twice and won! Unfortunately, for my recent daughter, she did not win. I am doing this for her and for any future children I may have. I have been on this weight loss roller coaster for years!! It's finally time for me to start and what better way to start than with a challenge.0

Hi everyone,
i'm 19, turning 20 in 1 1/2 month, and i want to get my weight (or less) from 2 years ago back. As i started studying i stopped doing sports, lost track of my eating cause i was focused on university more than on my body. Currently i'm doing a internship which will end at the end of august. So when i come home in mid of september i want at least lost the extra kg i gained during my internship. My aim is to loose those 10kg i gained during 2 years till the end of this year. And i think this challenge is a good way to start.0 -

I'm Audrey - 25 y.o. I partied and worked way too much in undergrad and grad school and gained 75-80 pounds from May 2006-early 2012. A little over a year since I hit rock bottom and I've lost at least 40 pounds from my heaviest (my scale was broken for more than a little while).
I moved to Houston for a job a year and a half ago and really have no excuse anymore, so I don't go out nearly as much, cook at home most days, and work out.
I'm excited for the squat challenge! Is everyone using weights or just body weight for this challenge?0 -

Hello! My name is Astrid, i'm 23 and after wasting some years at college i decided it wasn't for me and decided to pursue other things. Now i am in training to become a confectioner, yeah, a dangerous choice for someone who wants to be fit and lead a healthy lifestyle... but it's not that bad at all....
Want to do more, be more, sweat more, burn more, everything more!!!
Won't stop until i can run marathons and have defined abs 0 -
Hi Everyone! I've been using MFP faithfully since the beginning of January, tracking everyday even when I know it was an over the top day. I've only lost 7 lbs with around 47 lbs to go and it won;t happen unless I challenge myself and step up my game - squat challenge was perfect timing!!
I work full-time and am extremely busy with my 2 boys so I seem to have very little 'ME' time slotted in my day which I need to prioritize more. I'm needing some support and in order to be accountable for my weight loss journey and life style transformation.0 -
