Why do you want to lose 50+ pounds?: I want to lose weight to feel better about myself, to fit into my closet full of too-small clothes, and to have more energy.
What are your eating and exercise plans to lose 50+ pounds?: I plan to eat fast food less often, pack my lunch, drink more water, and cut back on caffeine. I also plan to start exercising, because right now, I'm not exercising at all. I'm just trying to be healthier. :happy:

Oh Wow, I hope I am not too late to join in on this group. It fits in perfectly for me and my weight loss goal. Anyway, I started with MFP a couple months ago and well let's be honest the holidays came and I completely slacked on my weightloss goals. So what weight loss I originally had, I have completely gained back and a few more. I am kinda disgusted with myself and really wanting to change my life. I need motivation to get myself up and maintain in the right direction because I get so frustrated and sometimes bored with the same old things all the time. I suppose I need to spice it up a little hahaha.

is it to late to join the challenge

See below link of a new realilty show coming A&E. I saw it this morning on Good Morning Amercia!! It looks like it is going to be better than The Biggest Loser because they have built in time for the mental issues that plague the morbibly obese.

Just weighed in want to post today so I dont forget

I lost 1 lb this week weigh in 207

Well I'd like to wish everyone GOOD LUCK on this challenge!! I will be removing myself from this group though as I just found out I'M PREGNANT!!! We are ecstatic and although I wanted to be more fit before conceiving we have been blessed and couldn't be happier. I will be using MFP to maintain and will be cheering you all on to reach or go beyond your July 1st goals!!

Okay, will have to try something different - posting directly from Excel will not work.

So I'm really confused. I added my info I think last Friday and didn't think I had to post on that Sat because I had just started. I couldn't find my previous post to compare weight (wasn't the same as what's on my profile). I may have been kicked out...not sure...

Starting Weight: 195 lbs.
1/14/2011 weight: 191.2

I can't wait to get below 190!!!! Soooooo excited! Bring it on!

Mrsmacg2b:

Start weight on this challenge 1st Jan: 208lbs
Week 2 weight 8th Jan: 204lbs
Week 3 weight 15th Jan: 204lbs

Total so far 4lbs....another 56lbs to go!!

Challenge this week = 3500 exercise cals - managed 3760. Was tough for me not having done exercise in a while but it was good to break it down to more manageable chunks!!
