    Joining the club, even if late. I have less to lose, but I need consistency!
    I'm working on breaking a few bad habits and eating clean, as much as I can.

    I'd like to join! I'm using metric and going for .5kg a week - which is about a pound.
    Height: 171cm (5'7.5")
    SW: 84.7kg
    CW: 75.3kg
    GW: 69kg
    GW at end of challenge: 71.8kg
    I'm taking off .5kg because I plan to maintain over the Xmas/NY break. But if I get to under 72 I'll be very happy with myself!

    Hi everyone! Hope you’re all doing well as the week wraps up!
    I weighed in this morning at 132, from 134.8 on Monday. Now I’m sure some of that weight was just water weight and that’s how it dropped off pretty quickly, but still happy to be moving closer to 130.
    I’ve been really getting into my workouts the past week and I’m starting to feel stronger. I pushed myself to do them even though it was late and I felt tired. If anyone needs some exercise motivation, go watch some Mel Robbins videos on YouTube, she’s really helping me see things from a different perspective. She says that you may never like exercise, and that’s ok, but stop waiting to feel like it because it may never happen. Just do it anyway, like a daily task you do, I.e. making the bed or doing the dishes. Make it part of your routine. Don’t count on motivation to keep you going, because it comes and goes. Make it a habit.
    Anyway sorry for the long story, I just thought it could help someone else out there who had also always been resistant to exercising, ha ha!

    I'm in! I'm 5'6", started at 179 lbs, down to 176 as of this morning, expect to hit just under 170 by Jan 1. After that I'll continue until I get to my goal of 155 lbs. Anyone looking for some motivation and commiseration, feel free to add me! My main fitness pursuit is running. Time to work on speed!

    DEFINITELY! I've been trying to restart my motivation for a while. Hope to keep motivated with you all! LET'S DO IT! 10 lbs!

    Might be late but I'm joining!
    SW 11/18 - 132lbs
    GW - 120lbs

    I just got discharged from the hospital as I have been "abusing" myself, hence, the gains and being sickly. Time to get back on track! Thanks for the motivation, everyone. 😁

    I'm interested. I was having some success with MFP but then life got super stressful and I could use the motivation to get back into it.

    Is it too late to jump in? I'd love some motivational pals to help me stay focused on the goal. I need to lose about 20 lbs. To get back to feeling more comfortable in my body ... and my clothes. Lol I'm up to 143 and have put on 7 lbs very quickly. I injured my shoulder and can't work out so I feel like I just gave up and quit eating healthy all at once. Self sabatoge type behavior or an excuse to give up. I need a re start.
