Hi There!

My goal is to lose 10 pounds.
Let's do this MFP!!! Slow & steady win the race!

Have a great day all!

Hi! This group sounds perfect for me. I want to the accountability without the pressure to lose an extreme amount per week. I agree the 1lb per week is very attainable. We can do this!

Feel free to view my diary and give feedback. I'm 5'7 and my highest weight was 237, my current weight is around 222 and my goal is 145. I exercise at least 4x per week, zumba and weight training.

I am so excited to find a great group of gals to lose weight with! I did MFP about a year ago and lost about 10 pounds. I gained it back slow but sure after I quit. I need the accountability from a group of ladies who also sometimes struggle. My biggest obstical is getitng bored with food, too busy to eat quality (or to even log on). I am currently at 170 and want to get down to 155. I think my goal is realistic and attainable. I hate excersising and I drink to much beer. I wont give up the beer so I might have to get over it and start walking or jogging again. I'll keep updating!!! Oh - I am from Reno and I am 32.

Hi I am Rosie and I have huge goals for weight loss. I have lost a few pounds but I am soooo far from my goal weight. This summer and fall I would like to lose 75 pounds. I know that it is possible. I will be 30 by the end of September, and I really don't want to bring all of this weight with me into my 30's seeing that it dominated my teens and 20's.

Hi Liliana! I've never read coffee is bad for weight loss - have you? I drink about 9 cups of black coffee per day......................no cream or sugar though - I have a bad for me Starbucks once every three weeks or so.

Hi I'm Beth and this is my first try at something like this.....hope it works. Thanks for setting it up!

Hi all, I've been reading all the comments and all have the goal to lose weight and stay in, no rush, no pressure, everything little by little to make it a process that allows us to learn to eat healthy, I confess, I lost weight in no time and back to recover again, sometimes more than they had previously, and the truth is frustrating, but I hope this time if I can achieve that goal that I want to get, so I am looking of people with my same goals to help each other and this group looks very interesting ... congratulations to all, if you're determined to do it, that it is not only in intention, let's do it

Hello! Looking forward to taking on this challenge. Reading through all of the introductions it sounds like this will be a very supportive group. I have about 50-60 pounds to lose and recently started to focus on myself. I one pound!!

My goal is 40-50 pounds. At a pound a week, that'll take me about a year, but who cares as long as I'm healthy. Right now, I seem to be losing a few pounds a week, but I know that will slow down as I get closer to my goal. An average of a pound a week will be enough for me.

Whoops! Hi! My Name is Marla Jean, I'm 41 and I live in Alaska.

I accidentally posted this is the July 3 weigh-In post so I'll just repost it here too:

"My main goal is to be Fabulous AND Fit--you know healthy in every way, but for measurable goals I have 5!

First, I'm hoping to drop my BF% down to below 30%. Second, I'm hoping to drop my waist measurement below 30 inches. Third, I had a full physical in February and the main things that I need to improve are issues with Acid Reflux (heartburn) and Anemia (severely low IRON stores) otherwise I'd like to maintain all the other stuff that showed in my bloodwork which was good like cholesterol, blood pressure, and etc. Fourth, to improve or maintain my mental, spiritual and emotional health. (My Dad died this past October, I'm a TOTAL Daddy's girl and have been having a hard time adjusting.) And Fifth, to drop 50lbs by the end of February or until I reach that goal and then reassess my progress and decide where and/or what exactly "FIT" is for me. "
