    I'd like to join too but only want to lose 14 lbs. The motivation and checking in will do me good and help keep me focused. Lost 2.5 stones and have one left to go. Had done well but slipped back over Christmas so back on it tomorrow and aiming for 10/3 for my wedding anniversary. 140 lb now and goal 126 lb. Good luck all xxx

    I'm in. I'm 6'0 - 270 lbs.(40" waist) Sadly at my highest weight since I was 17. In my teens I was very large, weighed 275 (50" waist). At age 18 I lost 110 lbs in 4 months! (275 to 165) nearly starving and killing myself. Someone introduced me to what they called "weight loss pills". Nice name for uppers/amphetamines. I was hooked within days. Went one entire week without food and ate up to 20 pills a day. Wouldn't recommend doing that at any age. I'm sure it would kill me now. Quit the pills cold turkey after 4 months and haven't touched one since. I'm starting calorie counting tomorrow and could use some friends and all the support I can get. Best of luck to all

    Hey buddy, FR sent.

    My Cal goal is 1600 but I try and hit 1400 cause I end up going a bit nuts at the weekend (makes sense in my head haha)
    Seems so low a calorie goal.


    Why not lose slower and do it right? You'll prob be more likely to stick with it, and be happy while doing it.

    :)

    This.

    I don't know if y'all are new here, but 20 pounds in two months is HIGHLY ambitious (unless you have quite a lot to lose), and will include a deficit so great it isn't sustainable, which leads to the weight coming back on. A more reasonable goal is 10 pounds in two months. I'm in for that. In fact there is a group that is 20 pounds by Easter and I'm in that one, only I put that my goal is 15 by Easter, because that's only slightly over 3 months. Just speaking from experience and reading over the success stories. I wish you all the best of luck though!

    I'm totally in! Daily caloric intake is 1350 - I'm at 212 presently and looking to loose about 50lbs. I'll be weighing in tomorrow before I start the challenge as well so it may change. I'm also 5"5!

    I need some serious motivation. A year ago I was down 50lbs with daily use of MFP and then I fell off the wagon due to _________ (input whatever excuse here)_____. So I physically feel awful because I gained all 50lbs back and probably more. I haven't gotten on the scale but I am in all of my old fatter clothes. I have never tried being part of a group. This may really motivate me. Can I join please?
