    Hi everyone.

    My name is Robyn I am 32 years old. As a highschooler I was in shape. One I entered the "real" world I gained weight. I had lost a lot of weigh before I met my husband. Than we started dating and eating out to much and I have slowly gained back everything I lost plus more. My highest weight was 208, I am currently around 197.0 I work third shift and have hypothyroidiism so weight loss is very hard for me. In the last year I have found Zumba and love it.
    I have been a member of MFP for a long time but I start and than stop and than start.
    Well off to walk the Great Dane. (she is on a diet with me, if she likes it or not.)

    Hello everyone! My name is Chantal and I am 41 years old. I've been with MFP for over 8 months now. I'm a mother of a beautiful 10 years old daughter. She's mostly the reason why I'm doing all this. I want to be able to do things with her. I also want to be healthy and live to see my grandkids! I used to be thin.... really thin.... That was 20 years ago! Now is the time for me to get back into a healthy lifestyle. Since I joined MFP I lost 65 lbs but in the last few months I gain close to 25lbs... I need to lose those and much much more! I'm counting on this challenge to get back on track! I was in the last challenge with Krystle. I manage to lost over 25 lbs than gain a lot of it back in the last few weeks... This time it won't happen! Thanks Krystle for putting up a new challenge!

    Let's have fun losing weight!!! Happy to meet so many new friends!:happy:

    Hello I'm Nicole, 22 years old- start date 4/25/11---1.5 mo & counting ! :-) Growing up I was always had an appetite although body shape/weight was never an issue! Walked around quite a bit and also was on a dance team & really enjoyed swimming like every single day of summer! Since then I became pregnant at 16 with my 1st baby- I put on 90 lbs during pregnancy!! Now afterwards I lost 60 of that within 2 months (amazingly not dieting etc--just still walking around etc) but being 30 lbs heavier then before pregnancy I felt huge!! Needless to say that is now my goal weight! When she was 4 mo old I became preg with my 2nd and the weight piled on again -- gained 70 and only lost about 20.. then started working out was on the mirena birth control and was down to 200 and found out I was preg again! Gained 65! and all that I lost once again was 20! guess its a boy thing hahaha! jk but yes so now I am tired of being a big girl! I want to get my sexy (confidence) back! Its my time & I am trying hard as I can! Glad to be in this journey!

    Okay, getting a little bit sad, not motivated! The scale is not moving. I am also not burning calories. I worked out for 30 minutes and I only burned 151 calories. I am thinking that I have to change up my routine completely. Tomorrow, I am getting up early to do 45 minutes of Jane Fonda. Yep, going old school to see if I can get a breakthrough. I can say this, I did fit into a size 10 Jones New York Shorts. I suppose that is a good thing! I just want this #Damn scale to move.

    Took a break today. Looked into a spinning class that I may start next week. Plan on exercising in the morning. Definitely had to change it up so I started Jane Fonda Exercises this morning, but only did 20 minutes. Getting ready to make a breakthrough! 3 weeks until vacation, I hope to be at least at the 10 pound weight loss. Right now I am at 7 pounds. 15 pounds down would be even sweeter.

    #Yeah! I just posted that I wanted to be at least 10 pounds lighter prior to heading out for vacation. Well I did it! I am 11 pounds down! It looks like I may hit the 15 pound weight loss mark may be closer than I think. Found another gym that I can use while on vacation! Really motivated! Clothes even fit better!
