    I'm just seeing this challenge and would love to join in late! I was injured after running the Dopey Challenge race last January and haven't been able to run or exercise for 10 weeks, so I have been gaining some weight. :-( I'd like to lose about 10 pounds and have been very unmotivated! I see my doctor next week and hope I get the okay to start running or at least walking again soon! I'm excited by everyone's progress! Great job!

    Today was weigh in day again. I was away this weekend and actually lost weight. Not as much this week that I would like but AF showed up. So I’m hoping for just over 2lbs next week!

    Hey, all! I’d still love to join even if it’s a little late! I used to be hardcore into running and clean eating, but it’s definitely been a hard transition becoming a new mom, and a SAHM at that. I’ve been struggling with binge eating, but I love this group and the motivation it may bring!! My goal is to try to check in 1-2x/ week

    I won't have a "beach body" for summer, but would like to get my BMI down & OTW to my UGW. I am determined ... a "bad" week here or there won't stop me. A general downward trend over time is what I want to see. Good luck e1!
