Hi y'all,

I'm Rachel from the Solomons. I need a good kick in the backside almost everyday to get my exercise sorted and to date, have mostly failed than succeeded so I'm hoping that this challenge will get me kicked off to exercise every day to achieve this. I've lost 33lbs so far (only 11lbs with MFP) and I've got another 55lbs to go . . .

Cheers all. Let's do this.

What is up? I'm Kendra from Virginia. Ultimate goal is to lose 100+

Currently 345 -- I work out now 5-6 days a week and eat clean.
Looking forward to this. My first mini-goal is to lose 50lbs by my bday (Dec 11) -- would be nice. But we will see!

My name is Rebecca and I am from Florida. So far I have lost 11 pounds and have 69 to go. I thought it would be fun to do a challenge that way I have a goal I'm reaching for this month.

Hi, my name is Marie and I live in Florida. I have lost 13 pounds in total but it has taken me several months! I can't seem to stick with a fitness plan as life, school, work, kids, etc get more priority than my health! I'll be 35 next year and I'm afraid that if I don't get my weight under control NOW I never will! Right now I'm at 196 which is way too much for my 5'4 frame. I have a feeling that I'm caught in a cycle where I'm exhausted because of the weight which makes it hard to lose the weight! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE Help Me!!!!!!! I need all the encouragement I can get! I will help you too! We can do it together! :flowerforyou:

Hello,

I'm Anna, I'm 42 & live in California on the San Francisco Peninsula, work FT & have 2 kids.

Today is my 100th day of logging b-day & during this time I have lost 22lbs. I have a long way to go before I hit a healthy BMI for my 5'6 height, but I know that w/time & determination I can do it.

I just completed week 5 of the C25K app & generally run/walk 3-4 days a week, the other days I spin, lift, Zumba, Kickboxing, cycling. Whatever fits into my schedule. But generally I do some form of exercise 7 days a week. It has been in the last few weeks that I have been trying to burn a minimum of 3k cals a week & today I was feeling kind of whinny w/the oh my body hurts, I'm tired, maybe I shouldn't run. So finding this challenge was exactly what I needed to stop the whining & just do it. I worked out during my lunch hour & felt much better for having done so after, so thank you for creating this challenge.

I'm looking forward to pushing myself & seeing everyone succeed.

Lets do this!

Hi! My name is Renee, and I am from Dallas, Texas. I have about 70 pounds until I reach my goal, but I am trying to lose as much as possible before I go on vacation in October, so it is time to get serious!!

Hi, I'm Sue and I'm from Northern AZ. As of last October I've lost 30 lbs and have been holding steady since. I have about 30 lbs to go but just can't seem to make it happen. I'm pretty active - work with a personal trainer 2-3 times a week - it's the eating that seems to be killing my progress. I'm a mom, wife, employee, student, business owner. When things get busy I get prioritized to the bottom of the list. I'm planning on breaking that cycle in August with this challenge! We are hiking Havasupai Falls the end of September (25+ miles in 3 days) and I really want to be down 10 lbs, at least. Every pound gone is a pound I don't have to drag out of that canyon! :-)

Hola muy name is Jojo Im 129 pounds and I'm a single mother to a rambunctious three year old! I work in a nail salon in Florida and have one more year before I get my Bachelors! ! My goal is not weight but inches I literally don't care about any other part of my body but my stomach. I am tired of wearing a tank top and looking 3 months pregnant. My dream is to be able to wear a tshirt without sucking anything in. Right now I'm doing jillian Michaels 30 day shred and I am on level one day 9!
My biggest problem is eating. I'm pretty active I have been doing well but the last three days I cheated with 3 slices of pizza on each day. ? So I haven't lost any weight. This week I plan on eating clean with only one cheat day!
Good luck everyone! Please give me tough love! !

Hi! Everyone! ....... I'm Sue and I just restarted using myfitnesspal today! I'm 50 years old and live in the Cleveland area...... I love to ride my bike if the weather allows me to. I rode for 40 mins today and burned something like 338 calories for 6.38 miles. I would like to burn 3500 a week on my bike but I'm not sure I'm up to that yet so I could use some ideas on other ways to burn lots of calories ..... I'm trying to lose about 80 pounds.
