    I did well last year with a 43 lb. loss. But, the Thanksgiving-Christmas holiday period has wreaked havoc with my weight loss. I'm up 6 pounds and can't seem to get back on track. Looking forward to the support of others with a goal of 20 pounds by April 5.

    2014 was bad, I won't make excuses but I could have done better.

    Here's to dropping 20 or more by Easter.

    thankful to join this group! I need motivation and accountability. 20lbs would out me so near to my goal weight. It would at least make me content! This ends when I plan to be traveling!! so I hope to get to 20lbs a week early! I should start a week early (now)

    New to MFP and glad I found this group...it looks like it will be a good one. I am a 41 year old mom to 3 fabulous kids looking to lose 50 pounds and feel great again.

    I would love some friends so that we can help each other along this journey and keep each other motivated. Add me if you are interested. :)

    Hi

    My name is Brenda and I have been an active mfp member since Jan of 2014, I have
    lost 50 lbs so far. And I need to lose 35 more, maybe more when the holidays are over.
    I need the motivation and I look forward to meeting and encouraging other group members.

    Hoping to at least lose 15 by Easter, even though the challenge says 20 by Easter. My average has been about 5 pounds per month, and I'm just about at 25 pounds lost by the end of this month and I started right at the end of July. So since Easter is right at the beginning of April, that is a little over 3 months, so 15 should be doable. That would be 40 pounds lost in all, making me about 15-20 pounds from my final goal, depending on where I am comfortable stopping. So bring it on! Ready for the winter and the weight loss!

    I'm in too! Just back with mfp after a long break and have a couple of weight loss goals for next year so this challenge is perfect. I'll be logging kgs though as I'm in New Zealand. Hope that's ok with admin?

    Like others I am new to MFP and it's challenges. I am looking forward to see how I do. Like many others I have a busy life that I am attempting to manage a bit better so that my health comes first. Knowing that loosing a few pounds will give me more energy is my motivation.

    I am trusting to be in the 25% that finish the challenge.

    I've never joined a group before so I hope this helps! I've been feeling underwhelmed with support from the people I've added so far. I don't think I need the full 20 lbs, but 12-15 would be a more doable goal!
