I'm very interested in joining! I am an active weight lifter and a religious logger.0

I'd also like to join!! I need to loose about 65. I have health problems related to being overweight for 10years. I started on my healthy journey a month ago. I have lost 9lbs. Would love to have group support and help motivate others:)0

I definitely have 25 lbs to lose!! I did great at Thanksgiving and didn't gain any, but my mantra of "maintain, don't gain" for Christmas was a total bust! I'm ready to be back at it, especially after realizing how carb sensitive I am. I used to take medication for Metabolic Syndrome/Insulin Resistance, but b/c I lost 75 lbs, my PCP took me off it this past summer. I am gaining back now b/c I'm not limiting my carbs like I know I'm supposed to, so accountability and encouragement in this New Year would be great for me!! If there's still room, as it does seem like the group is getting rather large, I'd love an invite! I log daily and I check e-mail frequently. I've done a spread sheet before too. Good luck to everyone!!0

Here's the group link. I did not get an invite in the messages, either. You should be able to join using this link.

Hi! Can I still join? I have a lot more than 25lbs to lose but that would be a great start!0

I'm interested too. What's the age range for your group (I'm 59). Going to Mexico in June for my 60th birthday and would love to be 20 lbs. lighter (at least).0

I know you were only looking for 7 - 10 people and clearly, there are a lot more than that interested! you said you would keep this open until Wednesday so I really hope I'm not too late.
I've realized that I need more structured accountability and this group would be ideal. I have 60 pounds to lose and my goal is to lose it by December 2018. I'm 58 and unfortunately, involuntarily pretty sedentary right now so controlling what I eat will be key.

I didn’t find the invite in my inbox. I actually found it in my notifications. Maybe you guys can find it there too.1

I would like to join. I'm hoping to be at least 30 lbs lost by then but hey, I'll love 25 too.

I'd like to join!What are some of your own goals, and why, for those of you joining me are here now?Basics: Do folks have fitbits? MFP on mobiles to help track?Drink lots of water? Certain dietary restrictions?Goals already achieved or some ones to name OUT LOUD?
I'm fine with whatever you decide for check ins - email, group, whatever.

My goals:
To consistently log my food and stay in my calorie goal. My plan is to lose 100 lbs total, but in 4 25lb mini-goals.
I am a Fitbit user as well as MFP and MapMyWalk. I also just started using another app which will let me earn "points" for logging exercise, sleep, water, food, etc (and taking some surveys on occasion). Every 1,000 points I get a $1. Once I get $10 they send it to my paypal or mail me a check. Seemed like a fun way to stay motivated. Someone else told me about an app Dicks Sporting Goods has that lets you earn points - that eventually translate into Dicks gift cards. These seem more real with actual payouts than any of the MFP "challenges" I've participated in in the past.
Previously I've tried to lose 2 lbs or more a week. I scaled it back to 1.5 lbs per week to see if I can stick with it better.0 -
I also would like to join if not too late. I’ve lost 25 pounds since May and wanting to lose another 20 by May 2018.0
