Hi! I need to lose at least 50lbs. I recently gained back most of the weight I lost, mostly because I stopped using MFP. I do much better when I am with a group of people. I don't want to put too much pressure on myself to lose it fast, so I am giving myself 10 months. 5lbs per month.

If you would like to join my group, please add me as a friend and I will send you an invite. Please don't join if you don't think you can stick with it and participate. There would be bi-weekly weigh ins. I hope you will join me:flowerforyou:

Tina

    Hi, I would like to join in if that's OK. I am currently at 180 lbs and would like to lose 45lbs in a right way.

    Add me too, Dewfus! I'm also a twin mom and I'm turning 40 in January. My goal is "140 by 40" but that means that I've got nearly 40lbs to lose by then. I've been on MFP for a long time, but have yo-yoed. I reset my ticker a few months ago, but then haven't been logging in. I need to recommit!

    Hmmmm not a very good response so far. Here's a little more info.

    The group will start on Sep. 1st. It is by invitation only so you must add me as a friend. I am doing it this way so that everyone in the group will be informed, via news, feed of all activity in the group.

    The group will be called 50 In 10.

    It will include: Weigh ins
    Challenges
    Recipes
    Support

    I would like to do our weigh ins, every other week. If everyone wants to do it weekly, that's fine too.


    This is for people who need a little support while trying to lose a large amount of weight. It's much easier to do this when you are surrounded by people who share the struggle. I am excited to get started and make some new friends!

    Hi Tina, yes please. Count me in. Sending request now. Original goal was 50lbs. 20 down so far. But starting to lose momentum and drive. Hope I'm not too late... Thanks!

    Invites have been sent. If you haven't gotten an invite yet it's because you haven't added me yet or accepted my request yet. The first weigh in isn't tip the 1st so there is still plenty of time to join!

    I would love to be added, assuming it fits with the group that I need to lose a lot more than 50lbs. :)

    Count me in! I'm heading to Italy at the end of September (gone for about 2.5 weeks and logging will be... iffy at best due to technical restrictions) so I'll need as big an extra push before I leave as possible! Friend request sent!

    Sent a FR, I imagine this is better then going at it solo.

    I'm going to Italy the first week of October and have been walking/working out so I'm not winded when I get there and start running around looking at stuff!
