    Hi Everyone!

    M/30/5'8'' - SW 340 GW 160 (eventually) CW 337 Goal for challenge 320,

    Hi everyone! This is the first time I have participated in a challenge. I have yo yo-d between 340 and 300 for the last couple years and I really need to make lasting changes so I can lose the weight and keep it off. My biggest challenge is binge eating and staying motivated. I can have a great couple months then go on a bad binge and lose all motivation to keep going. I look forward to participating with everyone and I am hoping that being part of a group will keep me motivated and on track!

    Hi all!

    M/25/5'6" SW 180 CW 150 - Winter Challenge Goal 140 - Ultimate Goal 130

    Got serious about trying to cut the fat earlier this year. Made some good progress with diet (counting calories with MFP) and exercise (walking/running/swimming). Had a good time in the Fall Challenge. But lately I've hit a bit of plateau, work has really ramped up in the last month and a half and so has my stress. I've been keeping active but overeating on stressful days. Net result I was stuck in the 155-150 range for all of October and the scale started moving the wrong way at the start of November.

    But I'm starting to get back on track and I hope the winter challenge helps to keep me accountable. Excited to get down to business with Team Reindeer!

    Hello! Please feel free to add me. :)

    This is my first time doing a Lose It Challenge. I have also joined a Diet Bet game this week. I bet $30 that I would lose 7.5 lbs (4% of starting weight) by 12/08. I've been overweight or obese since I was about 13. (with one year where I lost weight, but then gained it back). I typically lose & gain weight throughout the year. Lately, it's started to creep up. So, I needed this to help keep me motivated. Good luck to everyone!

    Wow, congrats on your previous challenge/ weight loss. Any tips? My current weight is similar to your original starting weight, and I'm close to your height.

    Hi everyone! Very excited for this challenge! 24/f 5'4'' When I was 18 years old I was up to 180 lbs. Got down to 145, and then after law school went back up to 155-160. My SW for this challenge 155lb, CW: 154.6, GW: 145. I have a big problem with carbs so I am trying to cut out bread and pastas from my diet. We will see how that goes. Let's go Team Reindeer!

    Hi! I'm glad to be doing this with a team - I just moved for my job, so don't have an in person support network yet! I'm 23/f/5'5.5", SW 146/CW 132.6/GW 128 for this challenge, UGW: 125. Winter will be a tough time to do this but I'm excited and the motivation of not letting the team down is already helping!
