    Hi, my name is shanna. I just turned 35 and am a SAHM with 3 daughters (ages 7,4 &2). I'm been trying to lose weight and successfully lost 15 pounds and gained 18 pounds back in a two month time period (this spring). So, I'm super disappointed and frustrated with my weight gain, esp. since I didn't change anything (continued exercising, tracking calories, ect). I ended up closing my original MFP account b/c I needed a break from it all, it was depressing me too much. So, I'm back now, ready to make some changes again, and hoping that a challenge and the support will help me through this.

    Hi I'm Nichole from Charleston SC:)
    Been on MFP since last Jan2010. I've lost 77p but then gained some back during the holidays. Now I have spent the last 7 months gaining and losing the same stupid 10 pounds. I need major motivation to stop messing around and reach my final goal of 100 pounds!

    So excited for the challenge! thanks for putting it together:)

    I hope there's still room for me! This is my first challenge, and I need some butt-kicking! I have 9m old twin boys (7m corrected age) and another 20lbs to go to get to my ppw. But I needed to lose 30-odd pounds before that too, so I've got some big goals. The last time I was that thin was during a bad bout with anorexia in 2001.

    So my goal is to do this right and long term. I've got monkeys to run around after now, and I want to be an active mom who radiates happiness and self-awareness.

    The big challenge for me in the next six weeks is that I'm spending two of them traveling!

    Looking forward to getting to know everyone better!

    Stats:
    5'2" 37yrs
    HW: 220 (end of twin pregnancy)
    LW: 125 (anorexic, too thin for my body type)
    CW: 188
    Mini goal 1: ppw of 168
    Mini goal 2: 150
    GW: 135-140

    Ah! I forgot to intorduce myself.
    My name is Chris. I go to school in Boston, MA. I’m studying International Affairs with a minor in Business. 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)

    I'm with Chris also--my boyfriend is super fit (and has always been debatably better looking than me, even back when we were in high school) and I would LOVE to be a piece of smokin' hot arm candy!!

    Wow, okay me three! My boyfriend basically lives at the gym! He is muscular and he wants to become a bodybuilder. I want to get a super HOT body to match his super hot muscles! lol And I get jealous really easy when other girls are around him!

    Hi all,

    I'm Tina, and I live in Singapore. Wedding plans are on for this Dec, and I just want to shed my weight off once and for all! I've been on and off fad diets and such, and I gotta say, MFP has helped me stick to a healthier diet, or at least make me accountable for what I eat.

    Not an easy feat, especially since I work for a food magazine, and gotta look at all the yummies everyday! Can't wait to start this challenge with you girls!

    Yes I need to join this! Had a bit of a sugar addiction issue in the last two weeks. Just lazy and coming off of vacation. Today was my first day "clean" lol. Anyhow, 5'10" and have about 35 lbs to lose. I don't know if I can lose it all in 6 weeks, but I can def do 15 in that time I believe : )

    I would like to join too! I've been going for just over a week - and it's fine while I'm on holiday (I'm a teacher) but worried what will happen once term starts! Also, counting calories is OK, the exercise bit is something else...

    I'm 51 , three grown up , but still student, children and live in the UK!

    Just signed the registration thing on google docs! So neat!

    Very excited for this challenge. Just finished a month long private challenge with a MFP buddy. Lost 10 lbs there. Super excited about a 6 week one! I think the support is going to be great!

    My name is Dev. I am 21 and living on the east coast. About to travel to the west coast for university in September!!! So close! So, I am excited to head out there under 200 for the first time since.... six years ago!!!

    Looking forward to getting started!!!

    My name is Alexandra, and I'm a 22 year old engineering student currently out on a Co-Op rotation in NC. I don't have much of a community here, and I'm looking forward to meeting all of you to share support! I've got my fantastically active fiance to get me moving, but he's not big on healthy food.

    I've been pretty lazy in the past, so I'm working on getting active once a day and getting my energy level up. I'm also trying really hard to make small sustainable changes in my eating habits, and not be too restrictive. I've never dieted before, and I intend to develop healthier eating habits instead of yo-yo ing because of temptation.

    I'm focused more on fitness and muscle gain than weight loss, so I plan to move the scale slowly. My goal is 6 lb for the 6 weeks, but I wouldn't argue with more!

    My husband is super slender. He is 5'7 130lbs. Hes like perfect according to BMI. Im sure he has like 0% body fat. All his weight is bones and muscle. BLah! At my highest weight I was 100lbs heavier than him. Embarassing. One of the reasons my mother-in-law (who hates me) didnt want him to marry me was because I was so much bigger than him. He has never seen me lower than 195lbs...cant wait to show him that I can be Hott!
