Hi everyone,

My name is Kara and I've been using MFP for a several years. I'd originally started at 180lbs and over my first year dropped to 129lbs (which I was really happy with). I did maintain that for several years (well, staying within 5lbs of that). However over the past 18 months I've slowly been adding the pounds, and I'm sitting at 146lbs now!

I've been trying to lose that extra for the past few months, but something just isn't clicking this time round and I've actually ended up heavier than I was when I started 'trying to drop the few pounds' again.

I think I'm more successful when there's competition and goals, so I wondered if anyone was doing any challenges for March. I'm always trying to lose weight either by myself or with my boyfriend (who has zero commitment with this), so I think I need to be part of a group to reach my goals this time.

So any good challenges coming up that may be worth joining for March?

Please feel free to add me too. I love new friends :)

    @mallaidhnme maybe @mallowbar may make an exception if she has room left. I haved asked for you . If yes you will need to send her your weight from ~tuesday ASAP to her (pref today). Next time there is a spreadsheet. If mfp works send her your current weight from 2 days ago or as close as possible as starting weight.

    If you have access to a rowing machine, Concept2 has an excellent March challenge. Rowing is a great way to lose weight. You can rank yourself with people all over the world. Check out their website: http://www.concept2.com/indoor-rowers/motivation/online-logbook-ranking
