    I'd love to join. I've been struggling with binge eating and food addiction for the past nine months so my weight has been going up and down like a yo-yo no matter how many hours of vigorous exercise I undergo. But I'm determined to lose these thirty pounds.

    At the moment, I have 31 pounds to go.
    The most amount of weight I've lost was 14 pounds but at the moment, I've gained 12 of it back.
    I'm struggling with a 1200 calorie diet and I workout 5-6 days of the week.

    Hi, first day back on myfitnesspal, been gone for about 2 years with a couple of short bursts back on. I'm 190 5'2, Female. 49 years old. Been dealing with a lot of stress, bad eating habits, long recovery from car accident. I was at 205, lost 30 but gained back 15, so back at it. Eat a lot on the go with work, kids sports, other commitments.

    My goal is to lose 20 by end of July and to keep going and lose 50 total. I'll be mixing walking, soccer exercises, resistance band training, and small weight training. Will need to go slow to build up muscle and watch how my back and neck feels. All exercises at home or hiking trails. Thanks for having me!

    I could use support and motivation.

    --My goal is to lose 30 lbs, goal weight 155
    --I started at 185lbs...I'm down to 172 lbs (after 30 days)
    - -I'm on Nutrisystem, to help me retrain how I eat and regularly. My problem was eating too irregularly, then poorly at night. It's helped me to eat on the go with my busy schedule.
    - -I do not incorporate additional exercise at this time, as my job is pretty active daily. I prefer being active outside with aggressive yardwork, physical labor.
    - -I monitor my daily activity with my Fitbit.
    - my calorie count is 1200, and working on drinking more water.

    I'll join! I also need accountability. I need to lose 15. I eat mainly health-conscious whole foods, very few grains. I have been very active until about 2014 when my life hit some havoc. I NEED to get myself back. Back in the workout habit most of all!

    Please add me. I need to lose between 29.4 - 44.4 lbs (to be in the 120-105 lb range - I'm 5'1.5"). As I get closer to my goal I will have a better idea of the best weight to aim for. My goal for now is to lose apx 2 lbs a week, as I get closer to my goal, my weekly loss goal will reduce.

    To date I have lost 39.6 lbs (189 lbs down to 149.4 lbs).

    My calories are between 1200-1300 (I'm almost 49 and short). I try to do some cardio (Jillian Michaels BodyShred and walking) and weights 6 times a week.

    Thanks, Elizabeth Maryam

    I'm in!

    I would like to lose another 49 lbs - I've already lost 27.
    Technically, my calories are 1,200, but I get about another 600 based on my Fitbit. Usually, I end the date having eaten around 1400 calories. I walk an average of 12,000 steps per day and just started C25K.

    All participants please send request to the group Slim4Summer Challenge (starts MAY 1st SUNDAY)
    We have a very fun and active group and will appreciate all of you.
    So far I've sent many requests to a lot of ppl on here, but it seems like a lot of ppl (like 30 ppl) didn't accept the invitation to join the group.
    Please take a minute to find out how this works. It's easier to do from a desktop than your phone.

    How to find the group-
    Go on your webpage
    myfitnesspal.com
    Community
    Groups
    Search- Slim4Summer Challenge (starts MAY 1st SUNDAY)

    Group will be closed 25th April

    Thank you.
