    I'm in, but my starting weight will be from today 11/30.

    My current struggle is reclaiming good nutrition. I have always eaten well, but for the last few months I have lost that desire. I don't feel well anymore. Time for a tune up!

    Great! I'm in. These will probably be my last 5 lbs. Then I decide to lose 5 more or maintain. The last 5 are the hardest to lose. BTW the holidays will be a challenge. Let's do this.

    Hey all! This is my first time joining a group and it came just in time. Before Thanksgiving I stayed the same weight for 2 weeks then after the holiday I gain 1.2 pounds, not the direction I wanted it to go. The last couple of months it has been difficult saying no to snacks and that is my biggest problem. With this month I hope to get back on track.

    Good luck!
