    I'd love to join.
    I'd like to lose 65 pounds. I'm at my heaviest and worry about diabetes and weight related illnesses.
    I try to stick to 1200 calories.
    I focus on biking to and from work, walking the dogs nightly, mountain biking and want to do some summer hiking. But motivating myself to exercise is the hard part!!

    Hello! I'd like to join. :)

    I've been on MFP off and on for about 3 years now. I'll commit myself for about 2 months, lose about 15 pounds, then lose motivation, and gain it all back over the next 3-4 months. I'd like to break that cycle. I'm heavier than I've ever been, and I'd like to be comfortable with my body.

    I need to lose between 15-25 pounds.

    My goal is to eat about 1200-1400 calories/day, and I'm going to burn 400 each day doing various activities so that my net is between 800-1000

    I need to lose 10-15 pounds. I am training for a marathon and I need to get back to race weight. My goal is to eat about 1600-1700 calories a day and I work out 6 days a week.

    I look forward to accountability partners, hopefully this will keep me motivated and help me keep my sweet tooth under control.

    Hi everyone,

    Can I still join for this challenge. I want to lose about 8-10 more pounds. The last bit of my pregnancy weight. In addition to losing weight, I'd want to reduce the many cellulite on my thighs.

    I have not been to the gym in 3 months so just getting back on track. My current calorie goal is 1350 and I'm just starting back to workout by just running/Walking 30 mins for 4 days per week.

    I'm in! A solid 10lbs to loose. Have been on again off again with mfp, but have heard so many people say it's critical to long term success. Cross fitter sometimes runner but motivation has lacked recently so trying to get back in 4-5 days a week versus 2-3. Generally a paleo eater but wine is my downfall and then I end up over calories by a long shot. Hoping getting refocused with mfp will help and protein protein protein! Looking fwd to it

    - I attend 3 dance classes a week, tap, ballet and Jazz and also do two clubbercise classes a week. plus I have a fitbit flex and try for 10,000 steps a day, which is hard when you sit at a desk all day!

    Hi guys! My name is Alyssa... Mom of 3 here. FINALLY getting off my butt & getting in gear to lose this baby weight. I was at 204, but I've managed to drop 15 pounds, and about 35 pounds to go until my goal of: 150. I enjoy working out in the early AM (6) because it's quiet & some me time, before I have to send the first kid to school. My diet is very low sodium & low sugar (if none at all), usually low carb if it's an option in whatever I'm eating. No cheat days! 1350 calories max, workout 6x a week.

My goal weight is 115.and I would love to tone up as well. I started doing zumba recently and am looking for other workout plans too.I just need accountability and motivation as well

    Hello! I started changing my eating habits this Monday and everything is going really well, but I would love to join you all! I am doing Whole30 and did not weigh myself beforehand (because I knew I wouldn't be able to resist weighing myself during, and if I didn't like the results I would just quit). But I DID take measurements, which is more important to me anyway! I am also trying to stay around 1200-1500 cals/day. Feel free to add me anybody!

    Happy May Day everyone!

    I hope I'm not too late to join this challenge?

    I want to shed 50 pounds by the end of this year but find that I am bouncing around the same 5lb range week after week after week! I have only lost about 2lb in the past two months. I am also in the throes of the menopause which I suspect could have a lot to do with the numbers I am seeing. Although I do seem to have lost centimetres

    I have a 1220 daily calorie allowance and I work out for at least 30 minutes a day, five or six times a week - a mixture of cardio and strength training. I try very hard NOT to eat my exercise calories - although I must confess to improvement being required in that area!

    Can I please join the group?
