    I'm in. I don't know about 10 pounds because I'm on the 1.5 pounds per week option, but I'll try. I'm 27, 5'6" and at an all-time high of 194.6. I lost 20 pounds 2 years ago on Weight Watchers, but it has all creeped back (and then some). My goal is 150. My boyfriend and I have been talking about marriage, and I would really like to look and feel great for the big day (whenever that might be. Hopefully next year).

    The weight gain culprit has been a new sedentary job, and moving in with my boyfriend, who is 5'9" 145 and can eat any amount of unhealthy foods and not gain weight.

    I was running half marathons, but an injury halted my progress, and the extra weight is making it even harder to get back into it. I'd like to get lighter and possibly run a half this October.

    Good luck to all.

    Okay, I'm in. I'm hoping this forum will help to keep me accountable. I am 5'3" and weighed in at 136.5 this morning. I have been feeling uncomfortable for quite some time, but just can't stay motivated to lose. I think I get mixed up with all the different diets out there. I am going on a cruise with my family in mid-march, and I don't want to be embarrassed or judged for my recent weight gain. /..|

    Sounds good. I'll give it a go. Any competitive runners on here?

    I run and have done many 5ks, 10ks, a half and a full marathon, but am definitely not what you might consider competitive-- I run slowly and I know it! But if you were wanting to tie some kind of running challenge in, I'd be down for it!

    Thanks for the reply Kiwi, I won't complicate things by adding more challenges on top! But I admire your enthusiasm. Basically, Im just wondering how other runners are approaching their nutrition (nearly every runner is looking for the magic equation to balance energy and weight loss, while combating cravings). On the whole I look at the type of food I eat and importantly the times I eat, rather than any "low calorie" approach. My nutrition has to support a 60-80km a week training structure. I'm keen to shed some weight, post injury. Always happy to learn from others :)

    Malenthia here. 5'1, 150 lbs. I have a two year old. I lost all the baby weight and felt too small. Unfortunately, I gained it all back plus some. I would like to get back down to 130 lbs.

    I'm in! My name is Amanda. I'm 5'4 and as of this morning I weigh 269.0, however just a couple of days ago I was 267.2. Welcome to "that T.O.M". My goal by March 1 is to be 257.2. I think I'm done with my water weight loss for the most part (17 pounds since Jan 3. Yay!) so we shall see if these 10 come off. Good luck everyone!

    Well, I guess I'll be the old lady in the group then! 44yrs, 176 lbs and 5'3". Goal is 140. I'm in! Lost 12 lbs since November...stopped the program I was on at the end of Nov and started back up Jan 1st. Reality check was when my daughter, same height, put on one of my old dresses from a USMC Ball and it fit her like a glove...I used to look like that? Dayum! lol I WILL look like that again!

    Hey everyone!
    I am starting this group for everyone who wants to try losing 10 lbs by the end of February. Starting today, it is exactly 5 weeks until March 1st! I know that we can do it! Follow any method that works for you, and diet, any workout and we will be here for motivation and support!
    Weight in's will be Mondays, starting tomorrow morning!
    I will start by telling you about myself: My name is Chelsea, I am 27 and currently (as of last Monday) 201.5lbs. Here's hoping that by tomorrow it will be less. I only weigh myself once a week. My ultimate goal is to reach 150lbs, but I would be just as happy reaching 170 by June 1st! We are going to Europe for a family functions, then in July it's my High School Reunion so I have lots of Motivation! I am also 5'7.5".
    We can do this!!! See you all tomorrow morning for our first weight in!!
