    I know I'm a little late so I hope it's OK to still join? 25 might be a far stretch but 20 might be doable...current weight is 234...goal weight 214....and then after that out of the 200's forever!

    Just finished getting under 260 lbs for Thanksgiving. 259 now!! Making 234 by New Years sounds difficult, but doable.
    Thanks for the challenge!!

    don't look in the forums much these days, so REALLY late on this, but maybe I will tag alon for the last month plus and see what we can accomplish.

    I have been logging for a while (1,900 days consecutive - sep 2012, and have been beta testing the MFP app on IOS and now Androd for many years)

    I keep "losing" the same 10 lbs for the last couple of years and have plateaued out. I have been thinking of NOT logging or taking a fresh approach to it with renewed accuracy and REALY pay attention to portions and frequency (I travel a LOT)

    CW: 207
    NY: 195
    GW: 175

    I need a date, a deadline, a contest, or something. going to kick up the gym, cycling, and swimming a bit as well.

    A few of my MFP "friends" have left MFP for technical or other reasons or just dropped off. So if you want to friend me or whatever I could use a few "fellow" racers. Not looking for a date, a relationship, or picking anybody up just like minded weight loss and exercise driven folks.
