Hi guys,
Halloween is only 6 weeks away now and I'm sure we all want to be looking our best in our sexy Halloween costumes (or in my case my black slimline Melbourne cup dress). So I thought I'd create a challenge for those of us with a similar goal. Let's do this together!
A bit about me: I'm 24 years old with a desk job and trying to get back into running while also trying start more regular strength training (I'll admit I'm struggling). I've decided it's time to lose the extra weight I gained 5 years ago at college/university.
Start weight: my weight in day is tomorrow so will post then.

I'm a 31 year old mom, with a desk job as well. Never been a runner, and I've developed asthma over the past few years so that should make this interesting. I've been able to lose 25-30 pounds since January, but I still have a struggle ahead to get down to where I want to be.1

Hey, I'm in too! I'm 28, in the USA, and I have a sit-down job during the week and wait tables on the weekend. I love Halloween (I already started wearing my Halloween socks), and this will be a great way to celebrate and have extra motivation. I weigh on Saturdays. Here's my schedule:

Hi! I'm in, too! I'm a 32 year old professor. I gained a lot of weight when I was leaving a pretty sedentary life (ie sitting and writing and reading) in grad school. Now that I've gotten settled in this job, I've been taking more time to eat right and more active.
I also just moved to a brand new state and don't know anyone here, so I definitely have more time on my hands but could use some motivation.
Looking forward to working with you guys! A few years ago, I lost 30 lbs with MFP and the support system helped a ton. Feel free to add me!
