    Great idea! Add me to the group, please!

    I'm Jen, married and have two little boys who are 4 and 5. I went from 247 to 217 last year by counting calories, doing Wii Fit and cycling. I'm back up to 225 and need to do something before more weight creeps back on.
    I don't have a measuring tape, I'm 5'9" and a size 18. I am a scientist, which means I can sit most of the workday.
    I would like to lose 20 lbs by Christmas. I'm a stress eater, and hope to change my habits.

    Good luck everyone! Let's go! :smile:

    I'm in!!
    My name is Sarah, I'm 24 and have been married to a navy man for a little less than 2 years. I have a wonderful 5 year old son and a 4 month old daughter. I am currently a SAHM and working on my MBA online. It has been really challenging for me to lose weight, especially since I'm a stress/emotional/bored eater. I feel like I have been on a weight loss journey my entire life, but this week I finally hit the ground running. I am sick of being embarrassed about my body and can't wait until I feel comfortable just being me. I always start to lose weight and then end up getting frustrated and quit, so I really need the motivation and support. I would love to feel good and not be embarrassed when we go visit family for Christmas!

    Hi-
    My name is Heather. I am single and a recovery room RN. I am 41 and the 30's decade of decadence brought on 70 lb weight gain. I see my goal in the distance...but have had trouble working towards it due to mindless eating and too much junk food. Really want to improve my eating habits and loose the weight!!!! I have a dog that I walk a ton...2 times a day for about 40 min/day and I am going to dedicate myself to daily exercise of some other sort. Here's to a new body for Christmas!!!!!

    I'm in! I'm in another challenge, but it doesn't have a deadline, and I think this group would be a nice supplement to that one and keep me on my toes. I've been slacking lately, plus life keeps happening and its been an awful combination for my weight loss :)

    I'm Bronwen. I'm 25, and sick of being overweight and not feeling well. I've lost 17 lbs so far and I want to get down to 230 by Christmas this year. That will put me at 45 lbs down so far! I've really been working on rebuilding some terrible habits I've been accumulating since childhood, so seeing my ticker move slowly is okay with me as long as I'm not giving up!

    Count me in, this sounds perfect!!! I'm 23 years old, gained a lot of weight through terrible eating habits and lack of exercise. This year I have decided to take back my health. I started running in February and ran my first 5k in April! Looking for some motivation because I still have some challenges before I am at my goal!

    I'm definitely in!

    I'm Deandra, wife, mother and grandmother to an amazing little guy. I've battled my weight for years and in 2006 had gastic bypass surgery; unfortunately, I've gained some of my weight back but at least this time I know I can lose it.

    Pre surgery weight was 244
    Lowest weight after surgery was 135
    Current weight is 177
    Goal weight is 155
    Will post measurements tomorrow.

    Thanks for kicking off this challenge :-)
