Hi team - my name is Bonnie, and I have never participated in something like this before. Since I have trouble staying focused and disciplined, I am hoping this "competition" will help. My goal is to lose 20 pounds, putting me at 171, by Halloween. Yes, that's greater than one pound a week, but I don't think it's unhealthy or unreasonable. How great if we all "won" by hitting our goals!0

Hi guys! I'm Kara. I first started tracking with MFP in February and lost 30 pounds in the first 3 months. After that I plateaued for 2 months but recently made some changes to my diet and fitness routine and I think I've begun losing again. I would really like to lose another 20 pounds by Halloween and get down in the 130s...I just hope that is a realistic goal.0

Hey everyone, my name is Sophia and I've been on MFP since January 2012. I was losing regularly for the first year then hit a lull this year and it's been up and down since. I stopped tracking for the past month and promptly gained almost 10 lbs so it's time to get back on track. I'm hoping to at least get back to the weight I was by the end of this challenge so I can fit comfortably into my clothes again. That means losing 10 lbs by Halloween!
Good luck to everyone, looking forward to "losing" with all of you.

Hello,
I have always struggled to get under 200 lbs. I like short goals because then I don't get frustrated with the slowness of long term goals. I figure if I go from short goal right into the next short term goal, then my long term goals will be reached before I know it! I want to lose 20 lbs by halloween...don't have a particular costume in mind, I just want to feel good in anything that I wear. I have got to get motivated and I've always heard that groups are the best way to do so. Here's to 20 lbs lighter by Halloween!!! Good luck everyone!0 -

Hello!!
I just joined MFP after lurking around for quite some time... Well, I lost some nice pounds back last year but then - I don't know why - I stopped following my diet, went back to all the old habits, tried to recover the route but failed disastrously, went through a very emotionally stressful period (a doomed relationship, a bad breakup, lost some friends) and well, here I am, after regaining it all back! Bummer.
But well, I'm back on this, more determined than ever wink I'm back on low carb (the only way I can lose weight since I'm hyperinsulinaemic/insulin resistant), aiming for ketosis, just started Couch to 5k program, will crosstrain on my bike, etc. I've got a good battle plan.
I love Halloween and well, I hope this year's costume will be the most memorable yet bigsmile
