    I'm aiming for 140 lbs as my ultimate goal and I'm between 156 and 158 right now. It will be fun to see if I can make that in 3 months. I know joining this group will help keep me on track and motivated.

    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?

    Me too! I'm sure we can convert them to lbs if need be.

    Is our header image the 'painted sheep' from Latitude Festival? Because I've seen those IRL

    Yay! Great way to jump start the year! I'm just coming back from a little over a year break. Baby # 4 is almost a year old now! My ultimate goal is 60 pounds away. I've lost and gained the same 40 pounds with each pregnancy, but with my first, who is 7, I kept a little on and gained a little more with the last so that's why 60.
    I'd LOVE to get there by next New Years!
    Add me if you want! Always looking for new friends

    Hi. I took a break from losing weight this past summer. I was going through some major issues, and needed a break. UNFORTUNATELY... that break cost me big time. I'm up to my highest weight ever. I know I'm close to, if not over 200lbs. I'm almost afraid to weigh myself, so I'll wait until Jan 1st.

    I'm ready to start this challenge! My second wedding anniversary is just after Easter (April 20) and it would be great to be at my goal weight by then. :D

    So I just joined, and I really want to complete this group goal. I'm not going to lie though - I definitely need some motivation. I'm hoping this group and any friends I make along the way will help keep me active and accountable. I can't wait to start this journey with all of you!

    This looks to be a great group and a good source to find help, encouragement, and motivation. All of what I need. Twenty pounds sounds like a big job and at the moment, don't know how plausible that is for me. Don't know if I have ever lost that much weight in that amount of time. But I am willing to give it a try...

    Good morning, I just set up my account here and am getting organized.
    I will log all the vital in the vital section tomorrow. And Add some kind of photo.
    This looks like an amusing group.

    I love the Easter sheep header.

    Hi everyone!!

    I need a little kick in the pants to stay on track for more than a month or two (seems to be a recurring thing for me - do great for 4-8 weeks, then fall off the wagon for some time, then pick it back up...my weight loss has been very "2 steps forward - 1.5 steps back"). Glad to be here!!

    I'm in! Had great luck in 2014 with a couple of challenges that helped keep me on track. I'm currently about 12 pounds from my initial goal, and ready to rock it! This challenge will finish just as we head to Mexico for vacation :)

    Hi All!

    I'm a little late getting started but I guess better late than never! :) About 5 years ago I joined this site and lost 50 pounds...dropped 3 dress sizes for my wedding. Since then I managed to keep most of it off but in the last couple of years the "creep" has started - well, maybe it's full blown creep. :) I'm about 20 pounds up from where I was and I'm starting to feel it in the things I love to do. So...I'm back! And I'm looking to this group to get me motivated and find some support! Looking forward to a great spring and feeling AWESOME for all of my summer activities!

    Hi All!
    I'm new to MFP (well to the forums anyway), so I'm a bit late to the party! In dire need of some motivation, I give up way too easy. I'd like to lose 20 pounds then see if I should keep going. Hopefully this will work!
