It was a jay_taay idea, so all credit to her. I just built the site since we all seemed pretty pumped about it.

    Howdy Im Chris. And I'm looking to lose 10 pounds by June 1st by doing lots of cardio along with lifting and eating right. I'm going to have to lay off the beer :(

    I joined Mfp about 6 weeks ago I and I've lost 13 pounds. My goal is 25-30 so I'm happy with my results.

    Wohoo! This sounds like a fun idea. Even if I don't lose 10 pounds in a month, it will still be great to have the challenge and support.

    I'm trying to lose weight for my wedding in October and just to be healthy. :)

    Good luck, everyone.

    Hi everyone, my name is Yvonne and I just joined MFP today. I need to lose about 47 lbs to be where I want. I am looking forward to all of the motivation and support we can give each other. I really need to stay focused on EATING more than anything. My problem is I don't eat enough. I usually will have a decent lunch at work and then a small meal at dinner. So I know that is not good at all. So if I can make myself eat more throughout the day I think that would really help. Feel free to add me as a friend (since I don't really have any at the moment). AND BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE...... LET'S DO THIS :bigsmile:

    Hi all, looking forward to this, have been losing at a pretty good rate anyway so hopefully it will continue in May and take me 10lbs closer to my goal. Good luck to you all :drinker:

    I've been a member for several years, but, after a strong start, fell off the wagon and regained the weight, plus a pound. Since I returned, I've lost 13 pound since March 30. In the past two weeks, though, the rate of loss has slowed. So I'm curious to see whether I can tally another 10 pounds by June 1.

    Question: Do we post our weight here every day?

    Good luck to everyone!

    Hi! I'm definitely in for this, had been looking for a May challenge (grad school starts in June and it'd be nice to be a little lighter and a little stronger when I start lol). Love these challenges!

    I'm 24, female, 5'8", and have a medium frame.
    Current weight - 173 lbs
    Final goal - 143 lbs
    By the end of this challenge - 166 lbs

    I hope it's okay if I aim to lose more like 7 lbs by 1st June; I try not to lose more than 1-1.5 lbs a week at most, because I don't fall into the obese category (anymore, thank goodness), but still have 30 lbs to go. And I doubt I'll find a 7 lbs by June challenge. So, this one it is.

    Good luck to everybody! :drinker:

    Hi guys!

    I'm Teressa, 24 years old. I recently recommitted myself to getting healthy around the middle of March. Since starting I've lost about 6 lbs so far and my end goal is to lose around 50lbs. I'd love to challenge myself and see if I can lose between 7-10 lbs during May especially since I'll be visiting my boyfriend in June and would love for his jaw to drop.

    My biggest challenge is going to be eating right. I've never had problems working out but food, particularly sugar is definitely my nemesis.

    Good luck to everyone!

    Hello, I just joined MFP yesterday. Don't know anybody or the site yet.

    I took the mindset to begin taking baby steps.... my CW= 206, my GW=180...
    As I was walking yesterday I thought being 196 in five weeks would be enough for me to be motivated for quite a while. So the first group I see here on the site fits that perfectly.

    Carl -

    Hi to all,

    I would like to join this group as I would like to lose 5-10 lbs by end of June. I hadn't been doing a lot of exercise lately and really need to kick my butt and try harder!

    Hi! My name's Regina, and I've been an on-again, off-again MFP user for...2 years now? Anyway, I've been eating a lot lately mostly because I'm really stressed from school and other commitments, and I just haven't been able to find the willpower to stop myself, so I currently weigh the most I have ever weighed in recent memory. Losing 10 pounds is the perfect amount for me and I would love to accomplish it by June!

    Hey All,
    I've been on MFP for a bit. I've yo-yoed back and forth and I'm looking to get back on track. Have 75lbs to loose and would like to be in onederland by the end of summer.
    Cheers.

    Hi, I'm Suhedy. I've been struggling with weight all my life. I'm currently 70lbs over weight & have high cholesterol plus a fatty liver, so I'm doing this for my health. 10 lbs is a great start

    I'm a returning member after being away and off track with fitness and good health for about 6 months. I've realised I need to get my act together and would like to feel more confident in myself come October when I start university. I need a challenge with accountability to keep me pushing and working towards my goal, especially during exam season!

    Hiya Everyone, I'm Missi - I would be super stoked to lose 10 by June 1...I finally feel like I have a handle on this weight loss journey, and am ready to kick it up a notch! Good Luck everyone! Hope everyone reaches their goals!

    Hi I am Amy, I finally made it back here to track my daily eating (I journal on paper - WW, but I don't think that's quite getting it for me - I need "see" more of what I eat, etc.) and exercise. I am trying to eat better with what I can and exercise more. Exercise is the key as I had gotten down before (2 years ago) and I know I can do it again. So, a small goal of 10 pounds (if not 7 pounds for sure) by June 1 is perfect for me. I need something to motivate me.

    Good luck to everyone, we can do this!

    Well hello there! My name is Eric but you can call me 3LB. I joined MFP about three weeks ago but my scale has been moving in the opposite direction since joining! It is my fault though. I would like to lose more than 10 pounds by June 1st but 10 is a nice reasonable goal. If you want some motivation and some laughs you can add me as a friend... I may not be losing weight yet but I stay pretty upbeat!

    Hello!

    I just rejoined MFP a few days ago... I am also working with a Personal Trainer but I am not logging my exercise because she told me not to because I would throw off my calories! Anyway, I log every day, Cardio 6 days per week, Weight train 3 days per week. I stay at about 1500 during the week and eat mostly what I want (in moderation I guess) on the weekends! I would love to have more friends on here for inspiration. Thanks!

    Hey all!

    Name's Stef, I'm a boxer and I just joined MFP today as a way to track my food intake. I have a fight at the end of June and I am 14lbs out of my weight class! Oops...

    So doing lots of running, watching what I eat... no beer :ohwell: seemed like this was an appropriate goal, and it's always nice to do stuff in groups, right? So good luck everyone - let's do this!!

    Hey everyone!! I have lost almost 50lbs and looking to get at least 10 lbs off by June!! That's a tall order - but I hope I am up for it. Current weight is 196
    Hoping to be at 186 by June 1 I hope to be at least 189 for my Birthday in May!! That would be great!!

    I workout everyday - doing something.... Curves, kickboxing, aqua fitness, home DVDs and home equipment.
    I have a two year old and that keeps me busy as well. I would like to loss another 26-46lbs total.

    :tongue:
