    Hi! I'm Amanda from South Texas! Totally stalled right now - been hovering between 173-175 for 6 weeks! I've signed up for a Mud Dash in late November ( Really big in Texas y'all ). So its a motivation and losing that 20 pounds by then would be awesome! My overall goal has been to lose 30 lbs. ( from 180 to 150 ) - so 2 lbs/ week for 9 weeks huh? Time to hit the gym!


    Starting Weight: 180
    Current Weight: 173 - Week #1 Weigh In
    Goal Weight: 153
    U Goal Weight: 150

    Hey everyone!

    My name is Tracey and I am from Houston, TX. I had lost 45 pounds and over the summer I gained 10 pounds back. I have been slightly depressed and not that motivated. I am hoping to try and get my focus back on what I want so I can be confident when I graduate next year. To tackle these first 20 pounds would mean a whole lot to me. I think having to post my weight and have people to talk to would be just what I need to get my motivation back.

    sw=205
    cw=169
    gw=149

    Please feel free to add me! I would love to have a fitness buddy :)

    Hey Tracey! I am right there with you. I put on some of the weight I put on and am pretty unhappy that my then loose jeans are now snug.

    Awesome!!! I know that my ego and confidence SKYROCKETED after I had lost the weight. After I gained the ten pounds, I pretty much wanted to live in a hole. I want that confidence back so it's time to kick my behind into gear! I think it is just something that we will have to accept and move on from :)

    I'm ready to do this....again. Been kind of under a disillusion of what's was going wih my weight. But some people from work got on this site last week and lost 2 lbs. So I decided to jump back in before they were bragging about losing 10lbs. Lately I have been trapped in a body that was starting to feel uncomfortable. I'm taking a realistic look at my body and where I want to be and I'm making a change. Now!

    Starting weight 159 9/22/13
    Today's weight. 155 9/24/13
    Goal weight. 138

    Lets keep each other accountable then! Sounds like it will be easier since we have a similar goal and starting point.

    Hi I'm Bianca,

    MFP has been awesome for me, but I hit a rough patch, gaining back everything I lost, and haven't been able to recover. I want to get back on track, and this seems like a perfect opportunity.

    I'm really short (5'0") so not only do I put on weight easier and have a lower daily caloric maintenance level, I also lose weight at a much slower pace.

    CW: 103 lbs
    GW: 96
    UGW: 95 (healthy bmi for my height)

    This is going to be really great, but really tough. Good luck everyone, and let's keep encouraging each other! :)

    I am so ready to get started and stay started! I was in a group about 5 months ago and I was doing great, until my life took a turn that was not at all positive. I'm still struggling with some things but I know now that I am important and I deserve to take care of myself and make my weight loss a priority. Here's to the next 9 weeks....


    CW-169
    GW-140

    I will be so happy when I lose the first 20 lbs!!!!!!

    Greetings from Texas! My name is Brandi. I created a MFP account a while back, but haven't actively used it so I'm extremely excited for the next 9 weeks.

    I'm not currently living a very active, healthy lifestyle so I'm hoping that this will turn me in the right direction.

    Hello! :happy: I've has a MFP account for a while but haven't been using it. Lately I've been feeling unmotivated and I think other people who are also on a weight loss journey will keep me motivated.

    Hi, I'm Mollie from Alaska. I actually have something coming up in 9 weeks that I am aiming to lose some weight and flab for. I'm really glad that I happened onto this group tonight! I don' know if 20 lbs is realistic for me so... I am shooting for 10lbs through a healthy lifestyle and making myself exercise more :-) I've been logging for a year and I've lost 12 lbs, which may not seem like much to some folks on MFP but I will say that I am amazed at the difference in my appearance for only 12 lbs. I would be stoked to lose any amount of weight right now! :flowerforyou: I look forward to cheering each other on! Best wishes!

    Current weight:145
    Goal weight: 135 or whatever looks and feels best 9 weeks from now!

    Just found this site...good call people. I'm from the UK originally & have lived in NZ for the last 7 years. Last Xmas I went home to visit & for the few months beforehand I exercised like a demon twice a day at times, used MFP, ate really well etc. I lost about a stone or so before I went home (about 8kgs/18 lbs). However, cold English days and 4 weeks of catching up with friends and family, drinking, eating etc I put a little weight back on. I lost my mojo when I was back in NZ and have put most of the weight back on.

    Well, my parents are visiting in January & I need to see them in either the same state as last year or less!! I also need to get my clothes for summer back on and my nice jeans etc. I started getting serious again about a month ago, but a bout of flu, a stinky cold & some bad habits have scuppered me a little. I AM DETERMINED that this time it will stay off regardless, so I don't have to keep starting again! I love running and I hate the feeling of my skin moving separately from my body, like an afghan hound!!
