Hi! My name is Kristen and I have been the host of 21 long term weight loss challenges, here on MFP, and now it's time to get ready for the next one! This new challenge is "Un-Rolling Into Summer!" and goes for 12 weeks. It is from April 10 to July 03. Our weigh ins will be on Mondays (closing each week at noon CA time and re-opening every Thursday). You can weigh in early also (Thursday – Sunday) so our first weigh in starts on April 06!

I'm a really informal host. The group will be pretty easy going, with a great mix of people posting and supporting each other along our weight loss journey. We won't have pressure either! Just accountability.

The topics we have are:

Motivational Quotes!
What You Do That Can Help Others...
NSVs
Exercise!
Articles and Videos
I'm Grateful For...
This and That
Mini Goals
Before and During our MFP Journey!
Food!

You don't have to participate in anything but the weigh ins, if you don't want to.

If you'd like to join, please go to:

http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/120024-un-rolling-into-summer

Would you please post here also that you are going to join? That way this thread can be seen easily by others. Thanks!

Welcome to our challenge!

Kristen

P.S. Once our group reaches 300, I will be making it private.

    After a year away from MFP, and your challenges, I hope that you will allow me to join the new challenge. 13 months of prednisone has done a real number on me weight wise. This Sunday is supposed to be my last dose and I hope I never have to take it again.

    So glad you're back! I got your message and will respond soon. :-)

    Joined...I really need this. Just went through a horrible break up a few weeks ago and I'm finally starting to get back into a routine and finding myself. I managed to put on about 30lbs since April last year and I want it gone! I have all the equipment for a home gym, including a pool and am prior military so I know what I need to do to get results. My problems I know i'll be facing on this journey will be staying consistent with both meals and workouts. I'm usually great for about a month when I try dieting and eating healthy but then drop off due to boredom, missing the finer tastier foods and alcohol in life lol and lack of support/motivation. I hope this challenge will help me push through and past that point so I don't do what I always do. Lol I hope for and wish everyone the best of luck! Happy Losing!!

    Joining. I am always looking for more accountability as I am doing this exclusively online and on my own. Looking forward to making some new MFP friends. Thanks to my friend Molly for listing this challenge!

    Hi I'd like to join. I just turned 53, never have I had a probben with my weight. That being said after a hysterectomy 4 years ago and 15 months smoke free it has caught up with me. I have gained 45 lbs. I started exercising about a month ago and am down around 5 lbs but would like to get at least another 20-25 off. Anyway that's a bit about me.

    I'm joining for the accountability. Sweets are my downfall. A co-worker brought doughnuts and cookies to lunch today but I was able to resist - yay me! Tomorrow, I may fall flat on my face, but I'll take a win when I can get one! One day, one meal at a time!

    I'll be joining for some friendship and accountability also. Emotional eating is problem as well as lack of exercise. I need to lose almost 30 pounds that I've gained. I'm rather shy, but am trying to engage more and get outside my comfort area. Anyone can add me as friend, so we can cheer each other on.
