Hey ladies! I know so many of us are into challenges, but we always catch them after they close!

This fabulous challenge will be for women who are 110% committed to losing weight. It will be a supportive and motivating atmosphere to encourage each other (with a little friendly competition!) :wink:

We will have daily questions to discuss on the forum, weekly challenges to help earn bonus points for our teams, and weekly weigh ins.

If you are interested in joining our challenge, introduce yourself to us here! Then, follow the links I've listed below and read the Intro and Rules Page and fill out the Registration Form. We will be accepting the first 40 LADIES only! The six week challenge begins on Monday the 22nd.

I'm excited to meet you all and lose a ton o' weight!

    My name is Logan and I'm a 23 year old stay at home mom. I have an amazing 2 year old daughter! I started MFP at 175 and have lost 20 pounds. I am excited to start my first challenge! Please, add me onto your MFP friends so I can keep you informed with our threads and the weight loss results as we go. Just add a note that says sexy in six to the request so I know who you are.

    I'm looking forward to meeting y'all and kicking some booty over the next 6 weeks!

    Ooh sounds fun!

    My name is Devon and I've just ramped it up with MFP this week...so this is perfect timing! My biggest struggle with weight loss is my schedule...I work in a hospital and so am either off all day (and temped to snack) or working (and too busy to eat well). This has helped me keep on track so far this week...so here's hoping!

    Looking forward to working with all of you...feel free to add me as a friend as well.

    I'm coming off a motivation slump too. We can all get re-focused together!

    Hi, I am Santiea and I am a relatively "new" user to MFP, but not the weightloss/fitness journey. I am a mother of two children, a boy and a girl, as well as a full time student finishing up my last semester of nursing school. When I first started on my journey, I sought out a husband and wife trainer team and they were/are wonderful. With a tight timeline and even tighter finances, I am no longer able to utilize them on a weekly basis, and for a while I floundered with out the constant support and accountability. Recently, I reconnected with the account that I had set up on MFP and have enjoyed the support and accountability from complete strangers. I always seem to rise to the occasion when challenged, soo I am ready to get things started up again.

    Hello all! My name is Kimberly, I am 30yrsold, and a high school English teacher. I have lost 16lbs so far. I am doing pretty good motivation-wise with my eating right, but my exercise is definitely lacking. I could use a bit of a push to get me working out more, and I love a good challenge.

    Hey everyone. I'm Ashley and been at this since May. I didn't lose hardly any weight the 1st month but I did lose inches. I have finally hit 11lbs and 28 inches lose and I just want to keep seeing more. Need all the support I can get! I too work in a hospital as a pedi nurse from 7p-7a and trying to have a normal eating pattern on my days off is what I am still struggling with. (My dinner is usually 3am :). Can't wait to get a motivated group of us together to get Sexy in Six!

    Add me as a friend...put sexy in six in the message.

    Hi I am Niki! I am the mother of a beautiful 3 month old girl that gained a bit (50 lbs!) during pregnancy and I am just starting to work it off! I am new to MFP and challenges I think both will be great motivators for me!

    I need to lose weight for health, to get back into my clothes and because I am an interior designer and it is tough to feel creative when I look and feel so frumpy!

    I am really excited to start the challenge! (although I am used to weighing in on Mondays so this whole Friday weigh in may throw me off!)

    Hi I am Isobel. I started MFP in Januray of this year and thus far have lost over 25 lbs. Some days/some weeks are better than others. but I continue to plug away at it and am looking forward to reaching my goal of 150ish by this time next year. I am Canadian, eh ! I work full time and love my job, but it entails lots of either sitting at the wheel of my car or sitting at a desk or in meetings, so any exercise has to be intentional.

    I love being part of a challenge, it really helps to keep me motivated, and keeps me honest. I hope that you will accept an ..ahem 'older' person like myself in the challenge. I don't mind being 59 but I am really too young to be this oldf! lol :tongue:

    I also enjoy meeting more MFP friends to support one other. :smile:

    I'm in, ladies!

    I'm a bridesmaid in a wedding on September 17 and then am getting married, myself on November 5th so the next few months are SO important in the "photo world".

    I was on MFP a few months back and then lost touch, but I came back this Monday and am READY!

    Count me in, nice meeting you all :)

    I am 42 and a mom of 3 children - 23, 20, 15.
    I started MFP this month and have yet to really start. My motivation is almost non-existent.
    Maybe a challenge is what I need. Excited to look at all this will entail! (Is there still room?)

    Hi everyone! My name is Jie and I am 21 years old. I currently go to university but am on a 1 month summer vacation :) I go back to school in the fall. My start weight is 230# and I kind of let myself go when I entered University. My aim is to get back to my original 150# (high school weight) and from there, would like to reach 140#.

    Feel free to add me and put the challenge name in the message bar! Let's all lose weight together and keep each other motivated!

I really, really, really want to reach my goal because I love it when people ask me what I’ve done to look so good. I love waking up in the morning full of energy and ready to get my day started. My boyfriend si super fit and I would love to be a hottie right next to him. :0)
