    December is going to be tough, but totally doable, glad I restarted my journey beginning of October. I lost half the weight needed when I first joined MFP in a few months but then came Xmas and I got lazy and kept gaining and losing the same 7lbs for the next two years. Determined not to let Xmas get in my way this year

    Hey, I am starting over again on this site. I have lost about 40 pounds before and was able to keep it off for the year. But now I am wanting to get serious because I have a nephew that I want to play around with.

    Right now I am struggling to find time for workouts. I am a graphic/web designer and I have two jobs that take up most of my days but I am looking up small workout challenges that take a few minutes each day to work up my strength until I can get a routine down.

    I am also looking for buddies on here, feel free to add me so we can both push each other to our goals!

    Hey! 5lbs might be stretching it as I am only 13 away from goal but I will play! It will be nice to motivate each other through this food/drink filled season!!

    I forgot to add my struggle. A couple of years ago I was well on my way to fitness, but some stressful life situations seem to have brought on some fatigue problems. I haven't been diagnosed with CFS, but that seems to be what I'm dealing with. My struggle is that I enjoy working out, especially lifting weights, and hiking but I can't do those things right now. I can walk and do a little bit of body weight exercise. I'm trying to increase my stamina but sometimes have a setback. It's hard to stay positive when you can't do what you'd really love to do.

    Gotta stay on track through Christmas! I've gotten a bit lax on food and exercise over the last several months. Hopefully this and a new running program will keep me headed in the right direction.

    My struggle is portion control of snack foods! So I eliminated certain ones from my house and replaced them with vegetables! Also drinking more water will help me stay full. Today's first success is having a healthy breakfast ! I even joined a dietbet for my first time ever (http://diet.bt/szasOj)
    @jdmay12011 good luck with your goals and good luck to everyone else too! :)
