    Congrats to everyone here so far. My name is Kristine. I am a single working mother to 2 pre-teen boys. This will be my 3rd Challenge. I am a team leader in the current challenge, and would like to continue to be so in this one as well.

    Since joining the first Challenge I have lost 36lbs to date.. I will be working towards losing those last 18lbs and then to keep it off.

    I am looking forward to seeing you all in April!

    Way to go!!! That is awesome progress. Thanks for sharing your success and thank you dearly for continuing to be a team lead on the challenge :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    Thank you Modellabell for running a Spring Challenge. I'm in! Hopefully, more successful this time around. If you are short on team leaders, I'd be willing to lead a team.

    Good luck everyone!

    This sounds good. Haven't decided a goal yet, and April is a month full of temptations for me with lots of birthdays and Easter and all fun things. Hopefully a team challenge will keep me motivated a little more =D Can't wait!

    Hi all. I am joining this group to continue my weight loss journey. I have lost 30 pounds so far, 11 since joining mfp. I recently went on vacation and gained a few pounds.... I struggle with balancing my busy life. My biggest motivations my daughter, I want to set the healthy example she needs! Also my brother is getting married in June and I'd like to look to be thinner for the wedding.

    I've also been in 3 continuous challenges - the camaraderie has been really helpful and the mini-goals set for a couple months at a time have been a great motivation! I'm officially down 52 lbs since I started my weight loss journey - 42 of those lbs due to these groups! My ultimate goal of a healthy BMI is only 23 lbs away at this point. It's hard to believe! Good luck to everyone with their goals! This challenge is going to be great!

    I feel the energy and excitement all!!! It is great:drinker: :flowerforyou: The last couple of days were warm so everything is coming together to create a good dose of spring fever:wink:

    We will start counting down on the 1st!. Keep the energy flowing and use the time to reflect on what you will accomplish in the 12 weeks. I am looking forward to seeing everyone do some great things!

    Spring Fling!

    Hi all, I'm new here and super excited to join up with your challenge. I'm in the last 10-15 lbs, and could use motivation/kicks in the *kitten* to get there.

    Hello! I am new to the challenge also. I don't have a huge amount of weight to lose. Ideally 10-15 lbs would get me to my absolute goal weight, but mostly just want to take charge of my life and eating again.
  • Hi Everyone - I love the accountability being on a team will provide. I've got 15-20 more pounds until goal and I am striving to be on maintenance this summer. Let's do this!

    I think this is a great idea (thanks for the referral Jen!). I've got 10-15 pounds to go and I really like the idea of the group motivation and accountability. Thanks for setting this Challenge up!

    Hey Spring Fling Challengers!!! Way to keep the energy and anticipation high as we wait for the challenge to begin. I am pretty fired up my self...today there was some snow..again...but soon, we all will be basking in the warmth of the sun and the heat of our collective wills coming together to get the weight off. Hopefully butts scorched by calorie burns:)...did I take it too far:)

    I am ready and I hope you are too!

    Hi all:)
    I've done a couple 4 week challenges before and had good luck. In the last few months I gained back the 10 lbs I lost. So time to plug in again. This challenge sounds like just what I need:)
