Hi I'm Ally. I just finished my masters and I started working at a really good company. I can already tell training has hit me a lil harder than I expected but I'm ready to be on the right track again. I'm 22 and would like to build healthy habits now that last a lifetime. My inspiration is my boyfriend and my family. I just want to feel good in my skin and my clothes again.

count me in. My name is Lisa. I am the proud mother of a fantastic teenager, Rachel, who is 14. I am a teacher of special needs children, and I am actively involved with my daughter and the school in which I work. I try to go to the gym 3x a week at the very least, but I need to bump up my exercise and keep track of my eating a little more. I lost 54 lbs last year - but have gained 20 + lbs back - of which I have re-lost 7 of my regain. I am going to lose the rest of my regain and more. I want to be under 200 by the new year. I have lots of medical issues but that just means that jI need to try harder and be consistent. It is all about calorie deficet - right?! I can do this!~

Yay! This is just what I need. I'm Katie, an undergraduate student in Art History and I work part time at a non-profit. I was raised vegan and vegetarian, but when I started college I discovered how expensive and time consuming it is to maintain those eating habits. I recently bumped up my exercise and found that my body has never gotten used to eating processed foods, so now that I'm back to eating clean portion control and cravings aren't as big of a problem. I want to ramp up my exercising routines, start running and doing yoga regularly. Right now I'm staying within a 1200-1350 calorie range, walking and doing Pilates and 30DS.

Hi, all! I'm Sandra, graduate student, wife and mother to a wonderful 3yo little girl. I have gained weight since my pregnancy (and did not lose my pregnancy weight. Knowing that weight loss and fitness FOR ME require a tremendous amount of focus, I only recently started feeling sufficiently motivated to do something about it. I've been exercising regularly for the past month, and a week ago I joined MFP and have been following the calories there. I have enjoyed some modest weight loss success so far but have increased my fitness substantially and have become a faithful exerciser. I have some important job interviews at the end of the year and January, and I would like to look as well as I can at that point - I am in the medical/health industry and the jobs I am applying for are very competitive, and I believe my appearance is something that may subtly influence interviews. I am looking for as much support as I can find, so far I have found MFP to be a wonderful community.
Starting stats:
Starting Weight: 227.0 (219 on MFP)
Current Weight: 218.2
Goal Weight by 12/25: 190.0
Bust: 38.5 (band)
Waist: 39
Hips: 44
Arms: 14
Thighs: 250 -
Count me in! I just joined MFP and am excited to take part in this challenge! I am happily married and have 2 great kids (2.5 years and 8.5 months). After having baby #1, I didn't lose very much of the weight but, after I stopped nursing at about 10 months, I was able to lose about 10 more pounds. Which put me still 10lbs away from pre-baby. I was hoping to lose the weight and then some before getting pregnant again, but that didn't happen! So now here I am just about 5lbs away from what I was when I got pregnant with baby #2 and stuck! A large part of my problem is motivation and sticking to something...this is just what I needed! This last week, I have started working out about 45-60 minutes almost daily and changed my eating habits.
The stats I am giving are as of Wednesday, July 20th:
Height: 5'3"
Starting Weight: 175
Current Weight: 175
Goal Weight by Christmas: 145
Measurements:
Bust: 41.5"
Waist: 34"
Hips: 44"
