    Hello All,

    Today is only my second day on MFP but I am already loving it and its mindless calorie counting. I am totally in on this one. I might not get to 10lbs since I am at my last 15lb and have struggled to lose, hoping this site helps with a more accurate intake count. If I lose 5lbs I will be happy, but this is a nice challenge to be accountable to. Good Luck all, I know we can do it.

    I'm super excited to accept the "mommy challenge." This is a GREAT idea!! I have two wonderful boys, 18 months apart - 6months old and 2-year old. I agree with what you said about us Moms taking care of ourselves so that we can be a better mother, wife, etc. This is a really motivating challenge- great to see other moms excited about being fit :-) Can't wait for Monday so we can get started.

    Any other moms that could use an extra buddy for motivation, please add me :smile: I could use all the extra encouragement that I can get.

    Hi, I have only joined one other challenge in the past, is there anything special that we need to do? Is it just logging in our weight ins on Mondays? are we adding each other as friends? do you need any help creating a spreadsheet with everyone on it so we can keep track? let me know :)

    Hello Challengers. My starting weight is 182. I don't really have a plan; just trying to cut back more and eat better. I am going to try and excersise more but I need to find something I can do with the baby most days. Anyone have suggestions? Especially since it's almost 100 outside here!

    sit baby in bouncer/swing/playpen for 30 minutes and do a video if you can...i like 30 day shred..i have also heard in insanity and turbo fire were good. any video is a good start!

    Good morning Mamas! I will need to take my measurements later, but my starting weight is 222. I hope chasing after my almost 17 month old will help in the weight loss journey! I plan to do lots of walking!
