Hello,
My name is Kate. I am a 27 year old grad student and I am trying to loose my last 9 lbs which is proving SO DIFFICULT. I have been trying to lose .5 lbs a week for the past month and I have lost and gained the same pound 4x over. I workout 5-6 times a week and ride my bike to school and back everyday. I am pretty good about eating well, but I have a weakness for sugar. I have started interval training and I am hoping that is what I need to get these last few pounds off.

HEllO! I am melodie and I am hoping to be out of the 200's by then. I have almost lost 60 lbs since starting in June.
In April I have a big horse event I am competing in Columbus and it actually starts on april 9th so this is perfect for me.
My goal is about 195 but anything under 200 would be great. I started running in December and most recently weight lifting. I am a cardiovascular nurse on the weekends and during the week home school my autistic teen daughter.
I will post my weight on Monday but currently I am at 216.8 so my goal is actually about 20 lbs. I am friending everyone so I can support you through this challenge.

Hi everyone, I'm Veronica. 42 years old, mother of 1, a 9 yr old daughter. I am 5'1", and currently weigh 163. I started out at 160, but have ended up gaining weight since I started trying to lose weight in january. I want/need to lose at least 35lbs. Every summer I swear it will be the last one that I'm embarassed to go to the pool or waterpark, or wear shorts in public. I'm ready to do this. Not sure how much is reasonable to lo lose between now and April 7, so I'm shooting for at least 15 pounds. Anyone on here have a fitbit?

Hello,
My name is Sophia I'm 32 year old mother of 5, 3 boys 12 and twins 10 and 2 girls 10 and 5. I am 5'7 and currently weigh 228.8. My starting weigh was 240 on Jan 1st my highest weight has been 253. I am a stay at home mom. I go to the gym 5 days a week and workout for 2-2 1/2 hours a day. Three years ago I lost 76 pounds to go in for my tummy tuck on March 10, 2011. I had complications and it set me back for 8 months with no exercise and I had to go from a 1300 calorie diet to 2000 calories a day. So needless to say I put on weight in no time. I then got depressed about it and said why worry it's not gonna do no good to try. I tried a few times since then to lose weight and did lose up to 20 pounds and felt good but with kids it's always something happening and then it became summer and well I put those pounds back on. Then I had enough when the new year rolled around and said I am going to do this again and not stop till I get back to my first long term goal 175. Good luck to everyone to looking hot for the Spring. :happy:

Hi, all!
My name is Sara; I am 37 years old. I am from Alaska. I am a part-time teacher in the mornings; I am on my feet mostly, and then in the afternoon, I have an office job where I am sitting. I am a mother of two daughters, ages 5 and 11. I'm 5'6" tall and weigh 192 pounds. I tried to loose weight back in 2011 on My Fitness Pal and the Insanity program, but lost interest. My last login in 2011 said that I was 172 lbs. What made me change and begin a new lifestyle now, 2.5 years later, is my family and my students. I found myself teaching songs and jingles to my class and something as simple as a few jumps got me out of breath. I also had gestational diabetes when I was pregnant with both of my daughters, so I knew that the likelihood of getting type two diabetes was possible, especially if I kept putting on the weight. I want to prevent the onset of it and be healthier all around. I have begun exercising by briskly walking 4x a week outside for about 3 miles with my mom (rather be outside any day :happy: ). She is also on My Fitness Pal. We have begun to do this journey together.
My Goals:
To lose 2lbs. each week until I hit my goal weight of 135; hopefully by mid June! I want to work up to 5 walks in a week. I want to be able to sing through all my morning calendar songs with the kids without losing my breath! I want to be an example to my family and students!

Hello everyone,
My name is Jessica and I am turning 23 on February 12th. I'm 5'4.5" and currently weigh 171.5 lbs (41.2% body fat). I started MFP at the beginning of January and weighed 177 lbs. I bought myself a Fitbit Force and Aria scale so my weight has been inconsistent with the scale switch over. I'm currently working as an exhibit design and development intern at a science centre in Canada so the majority of my days are spent sitting at a desk. I work out 3 times a week right now and am starting my fourth week of couch to 5k tomorrow. My ultimate goal is to weigh 120 lbs like I used to in highschool before I put all this weight on during university and after graduation. For this group, I would just like to consistently see a downward trend in weight and measurements as I'm not sure what a reasonable goal would be. I'd like to be able to look at myself in the mirror and feel good about myself once again!

Hello All! I am so glad this group is here!
I am new to MFP, and new to posting to a group like this. I am 45 old wife and mother and grandmother. I work in healthcare and I love my job. I recently had to talk a leave of absence, I am caring for my grandma that has Lewy Body Dementia. Work will have to start back up for me in about 3 weeks. I have learned I HAVE to care for myself or I can not care for others the way they need to be cared for. Self care is so important! So here are my goals; eat for true hunger, eat good food, exercise everyday, Mind, body and spirit growth, cement good habits I can live with for life!!! lose 15 lbs have energy and health!! Hopefully get rid of RA med.
So great meeting you all, best wishes to everyone here.

Howdy, everyone!! My name is Crystal and I am a 31 year old mom and wife. I have a wonderful 8 year old little boy and a hardworking husband. Both who I love and both who deserve a healthy, happy mom/wife that feels like doing more than just laying on the couch. I have struggled with my weight just about all of my life and have started and quit "dieting" what feels like a thousand times. I know that getting healthy is not about dieting, but making lifestyle changes. I quit a very stressful job at the end of last year, and since the end of Oct. I have lost 19.2 lbs. (Yay!!) My goal by the end of the challenge is to lose 10 lbs. which will put my weight in the 220's. The lowest I have been since I got married almost 6 years ago. I am determined and with the support of my awesome little man and hubby, I hope to be in ONEderland by Sept. :-)

Hi, my name is Tabatha! I am a 19 year old college student studying animation in Seattle, Washington. I am originally from Charleston, South Carolina. I have been on the Keto diet for a week and have already lost seven pounds. Basically, this is a low carb high fat diet. I joined this group to get some motivation to stay on this diet. My goal is not to lose 10 pounds, but 18 in the next two months. This is very doable on a low carb high fat diet. I am excited and ready for the next eight weeks!
