    Wohoo...I'm the first to comment....

    Fourth month now, so starting to getting used to this...

    Aiming a bit high this month...Down from 215 to 207.5 (well I think it's high anyway).
    First target is to reach 212,5, that is half way between my startweight of 245 early fabruary, and my target of 180 next summer.

    I am 39 years old, married (second time) with a beautifull girl (26). I have a boy (13) and a girl (5) from prev marriage, living 50% with us, she has a son (7) and together we have a daughter (20months).
    I work as a financial manager in a relatively large prison ( 200 employees) and live in Norway.

    So pretty busy life, but trying my best to keep up with everything.

    This is also my 4th month. May hasn't been my best month because life happened and I'm very much about routine...if I lose routine I lose all motivation as well! I'm going to work on that.
    Hoping June will be a great month for all

    Hi, I am Laura, I have tried to do this challenge before and unfortunately I let life get in my way. I am back, I have been better at not letting life get the better of me and my goals.
    a few years ago I did a 12 week biggest loser with a group that all lived local. it was great and it was very motivational and helpful to stay on track. out of 50 people I was in the top 10 each week. With that and continued effort I had lost 25lbs but I have slowly put 14 back on. :(
    I weigh 209 lbs, I would like to lose about 6 lbs with this challenge, my overall goal is to be 150 lbs.
    A little about myself, I am a nurse, I am married, we have a fur baby yellow lab, she is 10 years young, Jazmine. I have a 23 yo son, he is married and in the army. hopefully out in December.

    I'm also in month 4 of this challenge. I had a couple good months of 8+ lbs lost, Last two months have been rough. Dealing with a lot right now. I have days I stay way under calories and days I'm way over. This month I need to work on a balance. My goal in May was to get to the 170s. Missed it by a couple lbs. I am down 80 lbs total, though. almost 25 lbs gone since starting this challenge in March. It has been a battle. I have a special needs 5-year-old. He was born at 26 weeks gestation. I also have a mom who is losing her battle to stage 4 lung, brain, adrenal gland, liver, spleen, and esophagus cancer. She's on hospice. I will do my best to keep up with this. I work 7 days a week, and am my mom's sole provider. If anyone needs a supportive friend, you can add me. Let's do this!!! :wink: :smiley: June is nearly here!!

    Thank you so much! I'm trying to stay healthy because I saw how my mom struggled with her diabetes, and poor health. I am also diabetic, and never want to get to the point she is at. I have a goal to get healthy for my little boy. I almost died having him because of my poor health. He was a 26 weeker. I would love to expand my family but refused to at the 260 lbs I was. I'm down to 181, but have about 70 lbs to go until I am at my ideal body weight.

    Hi! Jia here. First time here. I have struggled with weight for quite some time. I lost almost 15 lbs during my pregnancy and breastfeeding. Now my baby is 15 months. I have gained all that lost pounds and then some more. My current weight is 180lbs and my ultimate target is 121lbs. I really hope to reach my goal. Good luck to all.

    Came home from a family weekend late at night. We've got the whole family (my parents, my two brothers, my sister, my brothers wifes and together 6 kids). We borred my auts cabin at the mountain and had a fantastic time. Warm, sun and happy kids. Probably ate all to much, but hey, my goal isn't before next summer....(and in june we have five weeks to reach my target..)

    Used my bike to work today, so off to a great start ( hope to ride it mon, wed and friday this week).
    Will do my weigh in tomorrow, because battery issues today...

    The dungeon awaits, and I'm gonna hit chest, shoulders and triceps today.

    Wishing you all a happy week!
