Hi I'm Sarah from New Zealand. Can't wait to get a little bit more in shape.

SW: 142lb (about two weeks ago)
CW: 136lb
GW: 124lb (after that maintain the new weight).

I am 5'3" (159cm tall) and 142lb put me just into the obese category - like I was going to let myself stay like that - no way!

    Hi,

    I am Hajni from NY. 5.4"
    Due to stress, I put on 15 lbs in a very short period of time. I would like to get back to my 140-142.

    SW: 157.2 (this Monday)
    CW: probably the same, I weigh in on Mondays.
    GW: 140

    My plan is to do some form of exercise every day. Some days it is in a gym and sometimes it is at home.

    Hi, I'm Kristy from Australia. I have 2 children, 8 and 6. I've just re-started with MFP. Have gotten into bad habbits since I was diagnosed with a heart condition (used it as an excuse I guess). Wanting to get healthy and fit again.

    I am Katie from Ontario. I love going to the gym, weight lifting but am still overweight. I have changed my diet in the past 6 mnts to limit my carbs after seeing a nutritionist who thought I should accept my weight.

    I have two boys-4yrs and 6yrs and work full time.

    Hoping to get from 178 to 165 by Christmas. My current weight is 173.5. I hope to get lots of support here.
