    We have about the same cw, I have been fluctuating between 158 and 160, and would love to be at least 150 by the end of may!!!
    Just curious, what is your height??

    Work hard today my friends try to get in a good calorie burn and resist any temptation to go over your calorie goal for today.

    MFP's 5 week weight estimate, if I do what I did yesterday will be 228. I wonder how close to that I can come.
    I am thinking about starting a new challenge, "Hit your 5 week estimate" but not until we finish May's 10 pound challenge

    Just curious what does you 5 week estimate say and does it motivate you or not?

    My 5 week esimate for today was 191.8, because I had a bad day, which depresses me! But if I have a good day (and do some exercises and meet my calorie target), then it says 185.2 generally, which is pretty exciting because that'll be 13lb dropped in May!

    I'm in! I am a bridesmaid in a wedding June 11th. The other bridesmaids (and bride) all are size 6 and under. I know I can't get that low but I want to lose at least 10 pounds this month (safely of course). My starting weight is 194.

    I'm trying to lose about 10 pounds for a wedding I'm in too! I've been at it for 2 weeks and have lost 0 pounds :( I'm so discouraged. Please help!

    We need more information:
    How much do you weigh?
    How many calories you burn daily?
    How many calories you eat daily?

    Could be just a matter of tweaking one of these. Don't get discouraged read some of the post on MFP about weigh loss.

    I'm in!

    I weight 137 pounds. I'm not sure of how much I burn daily and it's hard counting calories because I'm still in school and get food there so I usually just try to go after hunger and try to exercise as often as I can make myself do it.

    I need to lose 10 pounds to feel better about myself :)

    I always want my 5 week estimate to be lower than what it says... so yes, it motivates me... I know 1 - 2 lbs is the safe healthy way & I've done it before... but I want to look not so huge when I go on vacation the last week of July. I was only going to do 30 minutes on the treadmill last night by did 50 even though I wound up setting it a 45 minutes I was really into the last song that was playing on my ipod so I rounded off to 50. LOL!! I need to start throwing in some other forms of exercise I think though.

    I'm currently on a bank's software project having to eat lunch on their campus. I choose food which I can easily find/track in the food database like pasta with tomato sauce, cooked or grilled fish with vegetable, fresh salad when I got to pick the dressing ... never take any desert, never take any Starbucks type of drinks ...

    However make sure you eat enough. This afternoon being hungry I got a little agressiv/moody.
