    Hello everyone!

    My name is Sarah, and I'm 26 and living in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Like many of you, I have struggled with weight most of my life. I ate every emotion I had! In doing so, I feel like I allowed my body to become my prison. I no longer was participating in life, only observing it. I want to break out of this self-made prison and begin to live and let my body know it is alive!

    I'm very excited to be apart of this team!

    My MFP SW: 355 (7.16.11)
    CW: 335
    GW: 150
    And for Sept. I would like to drop another 20.

    Hi Everyone! My name is Jenna, and I'm hoping TeamJ is still open to new members - since I've got a J name, I figure this is a good place for me ;).

    I am a 36 year old from Australia, brand new to the weight loss game, and kind of just winging it so far.
    I managed to reach my calorie target most days as well as doing some exercise each day, but I really want to be more active, and I think this may be just the motivation I need!

    SW: 165 lbs (joined MFP last Tuesday)
    CW: 163 lbs
    GW: 143 lbs

    Goal Weight for September: 155 lbs

    C'Mon ladies!!! I know SOME of you HAVE to be creative here...Jules and I are struggling with the new name of our team....do you REALLY want to be known as Team J??? Bleck....:huh:

    Ok, so we're still wrestling with "diamonds' being in the name, but to add something that makes it sound "jungly" since it's called a Tribal challenge!!

    First one with some great ideas...or any ideas at ALL!.....get's a kiss from Jules!!! :devil:

    Diamond Idols (like Survivor idol-type reference?) or would people not connect the Tribal with the idol? ;)
