Hi all! My name is Kim. I'm a 41 year old, right now SAHM. I'm married to my other half for the last 6 yrs (together 13). And I'm the mom of 3, 18, 15 and 4 yrs old. I have struggled with my weight my entire life (losing for about 1/2 of it lol). Back in October I quit my job to finish school (for Medical Assistant). I realized after that that maybe I should have studied up on that job more. It's so over saturated with students that it's almost impossible to get a job. So here I sit, with no job. I have never not worked and it's weird. I don't like it because I like to be bringing in the money, but I love it because for once I get to be home with my little one and watch her grow and change every day. I go back to school the end of next month. I'm in between on what I'm going to be going to school for...just because after doing the research I should have done the first time, I realized that what I was going to be going back for was ALSO over saturated and hard to find a job in. So in the next week I have to decide what I can take that I will like and that will be offered at the local college LOL. I am trying to find some sort of income that I can do at home or that won't take up an inordinate amount of time so that I'll be able to bring in a little money and also go to school and be with the little.
I lost almost 50 lbs on here about a year or so ago, then real life (finances, job, etc) stuck their ugly head in and I gained 20lbs of it back. Now I'm back and wanting to finish the job of becoming the me I know I am and can be so that I can be here for my kids and myself.
Wow that was really long winded. Sorry about that! Skip over the boring parts

Hello, I'm a day late but hopefully I can still play. I"m Rochelle, 25, and I'm interested in earning myself a fantastic booty. I'm a military wife and former military myself and over the past 3 years I've allowed about 30-40 pounds to creep up on me. I want to get back to my Navy weight, look great in pretty clothing, and feel great about myself. 0

Late to this thread! Sorry!
I'm Caroline, 25 years old from Syracuse NY
I'm a Licensed Practical Nurse on a physical rehab unit in a nursing home - families LOVE to bring us in donuts, cookies, candy.. all sorts of fun stuff!
Highest weight 372
Current weight around 315 (no consistent scale at the moment)
Lowest weight - 269
Got to 269 with help of MFP.. gained back about 50# between full time nursing school while working in foodservice then starting to work 50+ hours a week and moving in with my best-friend-turned-boyfriend and getting far too comfortable (excuses, excuses). Back at it with full force now
My goal weight is 180 for right now, last time I was 180 I wore a size 10.. that was also when i was 13. This challenge is an added structure to my day.. a way to start getting moving and showing myself that i truly CAN stick to my goals and achieve them. I'd like to be less than 250 for my 26th birthday in February
Any and all feel free to add me!0 -

Hi, my name is Stephanie and I'm 41. I have a wonderful husband and 3 great kids (19, 16, 11). 2-1/2 years ago I tore my rotator cuff and had the surgery which took nearly a full year to recover from and I have spent the time since then not working out and have gained nearly 20 lbs. I started a paleo diet in June of 2012 and felt so much better but I did not see weight loss like so many others. I modified my diet to be paleo/ketogenic in May of this year and so far, I've lost almost 11 lbs. 3 weeks ago, I joined a crossfit style gym and go 3-4 times a week. I absolutely love it! This challenge is just a little motivation for me to keep moving even on my non-gym days. My clothes are getting looser (yea!) and I am getting stronger.0
