Hi All. My name is Sharon and this isn't my first trip around this block. In fact, swore I'd never do this again but as you can see, here I am. Been here for almost two months now and thoroughly enjoying it. I like gadgets and seeing numbers so this app and my fitbit make a happy couple.

Hi there, my name is Danielle. I'm here to lose weight and be healthier! I have some nerve issues in my back, and was told by my neurologist that it would be best if I could lose some 'tummy weight', since it was pulling on my spine. I'd also like to look a little 'sexier' for my husband!

I'm Marcella. I've been about the same weight all year. But, as summer winds down, I would like to just throw it into high gear and reach my goal weight by year end. I lost about 30 pounds last year and have recently reset my MFP numbers to reflect where I am now.

Hey! My name is Shanna. While I'm generally happy with my size, I have noticed that I've gained enough weight over the past year that a lot of my clothes are too tight. This is primarily due to starting a desk job and leaving my 8-hour a day walking job as a server, in addition to terrible late night eating habits and stress cravings. As a poor university graduate I can't really afford a whole new wardrobe, but the more I try to diet on my own the more I seem to gain. I'm hoping that by being supported and supporting others in turn, it will help get me back to where I started.

Hello!! I'm Maria, nice to meet everyone!
Why are you here? (What's your goal?) I need support! Something or someone to help me keep going and not give up this time! I need to lose fat, not just weight so I can be healthier for myself and my kids.

Hi my name is Dwanner and I'm here to lose weight. Tried many times by myself and failed (quit), so I decided to try again. But this time I would put myself out there and make friends so I would have support.

My name is Cai, and I'm here to lose weight the healthy way and improve my overall health and fitness. I don't just want to be thin -- I want to be thin and healthy! Like Damita says, I'm trying to build myself a web of friends so that I have something to fall back on and I won't get crushed on the rocks of defeat.

So here's the thing. We can ALL do this. Where will we be if we don't. I'm 57 years old and if my weight keeps going up with my age I'll be dead before I'm 60.
Do whatever you have to do to keep on track. I've been overweight most of my life and when I was younger having pics of thin, fit people around helped. Now, now I have pics of what I DONT want to look like that keeps me motivated. Sad, but shows like 'my big fat fabulous life' are my inspiration. I'm doing whatever I have to do!1 -

Hi My name is Rae,
I started in July 1915 and have lost 69 pounds. I was in a challenge that livelifenow91 last year and she posted some very interesting things. right now I am on maintenance because I broke my fibula and fibula climbing down Mt Bross after climbing mount Democrat, Cameron and Lincoln. (the hike was only 7 miles due to the saddles between the mountains) It was the third day of a 10 day vacation. Any how I thought that I should not try to loose weight while I am healing. I was just cleared to swim so Im excited about that. weight bearing will be in two weeks. I started this journey at 230 lbs and very sedentary.(average 2 miles a day that was with a tracker that tracked every step from wake up to sleeping. Most of those miles I earned at work) Before I broke my leg I was averaging 6.8 miles a day. I feel much healthier and happier.
I want you to know if I can do this so can you. Try to make it a life style change not a diet. that will make it easier for you. For exercise find something you love. it will make it easer to do it.
And be happy with yourself to the point of bracing at your improvements. Your only competition is your last score. You really CAN do it.
Start of challenge 161
Goal 158 this will start for me at the end of October
Ultimate goal weight, I figure I'll See about that in 20171 -
What's your name? I'm Justin W
Why are you here? (What's your goal?) I lost a lot of weight with MFP before, and I can proudly say I've maintained that pretty well for over a year now on my own. I still want to lose a bit more, so I figured joining a group like this again should help me with the last few.
Current weight: 166.5 this AM
Challenge goal weight (by 1/1/17): 150 (pretty much 1lb per week)
Ultimate goal weight: Maybe 145? We'll see when I get closer.1 -
HI All.
My name is Jennifer. I live in a tiny community in the Interior of British Columbia (Canada).
My goal is to increase my physical activity level and to lose weight and be healthier. I have chronic back pain due to multiple injuries and would also like to decrease the pain I have every day.
I started using mfp regularly and weighing my food on June 1st. And have been just reading the groups and discussions without partaking up to now.
Starting weight on June 1st: 238 lbs
Current weight as of this am: 213 lbs
Challenge goal weight (by Jan 1st, 2017): 188 lbs (lose 25 more lbs)
Ultimate goal weight: 145 lbs which will put me just in the normal BMI for my height so I may adjust this goal as I get closer.1 -
