    Hello from North Carolina! I'm Stephanie, a 39 year old wife and mom/stepmom to four teenagers, ages 14, 16, 17 and 18. This is my third month as part of this team.

    I joined MFP a few years ago, but got serious about my health and changing my lifestyle for good about a year ago. I started this journey at a weight of 204.2 lbs. with a GW of 160. I had been stuck in a plateau since August of last year, but joining this challenge has helped me see some progress again on the scale.

    I love running and competing in 5Ks, as well as hiking and kayaking. I am currently participating in the NC 100 Miles Challenge (get at least 100 miles of outdoor activity in my state this year) and the Passport program (visit all the NC State Parks). My goal for this year is to check as many NC State Parks off my passport as possible.

    April goals:
    Drink more water
    Shoot for 10k steps per day
    Lose at least 5 pounds

    I enjoy doing the step challenge and I'm fine with Fitbit or the way we were doing it.

    Good morning team. My name is Tanaya, 28 F w/ a three year old. I have been on my fitness journey for 1.5 years and I am so close to reaching my goal weight. This group has been great with keeping me accountable!

    I work 7 days on 7 days off. My 7 days off is usually when I drop the ball with diet and my weight always yoyos. This month my goal this month is to do better with planning meals and resisting temptation during my weeks off to finally help me break my goal! Starting today :)

    Welcome new challengers!

    introductions can be so hard LOL
    I am Julie, co-caption next to @beka3695.
    I am always here on the computer during the week because my job but the weekends I tend to vanish because my part time job and other activites.
    I am 37, single with a 17 yr old son that just started driving.
    I started at 237, got down to 132 then got lazy in a relationship and as of last week, I was 166.2.
    April goals are to hit 10k every day that I work both jobs and the other 4 days, to hit 12k.
    I'd also like to lose 3+ lbs and do better at logging all food.

    Step challenge

    We have had a mixed response to the step challenge. I suggest that we all link on FitBit and do a Week challenge and Weekend Warrior.

    I tend to suck at the weekday thing but rock the weekends.

    I have several of you as friends there - so it might not be too difficult to all link up.

    If you want to find me, my fitbit link is //www.fitbit.com/user/56MD46

    I will see if I can make a group for us there, too.

    Ok, I made a Fitbit group. Simply named MFP Shrinking Assets. I sent an invitation to those I am already friends with.

    Let's give this a try

    I think I am technologically challenged. I can’t figure out how to add you to my Fitbit, my Fitbit username or how to search for a group. My email is linda_tuck@outlook.com if you can add me that way.
