Hello Again!
Going to give this another shot as I have ended up back to where I started back in Jan 2021!
I’m 55, female and 5feet 5 inches.
I joined this group back in January of 2021at my highest weight of 160lbs, and at the time didn’t believe it was possible for ME to lose weight. However I stuck to my program managed to get down to 150lbs in the fall of 2021.
So MFP program DOES work….. If you really stick with it and have patience.
Highest weight - 160 Jan/21
Lowest weight - 150 Fall/21
*Todays weight - 157.4 Aug 2/22*
1st Goal weight - 150 Oct 31/22
2nd Goal weight - 145 Dec 31/23
3rd Goal weight - 140 Mar 31/23
Best of success to everyone! Look forward to being on this journey again, with such a great supportive group.

Hello! I’m Nancy, from PA, long time MFP member but most of my friends are now inactive. Motivation has been my biggest struggle lately and I’ve regained what I had lost and then some. I was looking at the challenge board hoping to find one to help with motivation. 15 lbs in 3 months seems like a realistic, achievable goal, so I’d like to do this!

I'm Angela and have been a lurker for ages.
I was 82kg at my heaviest, got down to 61kg and then slowly but surely the weight has crept back on over the last 5 years and I am 71kg as of today.
My goal is to lose 15lbs by the end of October.
I am 5ft7 and an based in the UK. Annoyingly I broke my foot last weekend when I slipped and fell, but do wonder if my weight had anything to do with it.
I am also keen to reduce my blood pressure which is pre-hypertensive.
I am 47 and a major comfort eater.
Thanks for having me.
Angela

I am back again to lose those last pesky pounds. I went to my future DIL's bridal shower this weekend and destroyed that downward trend I had going. I just had my dress for the wedding fitted before I left so need to make sure I don't gain any weight for the next month. Looking forward to hopefully reaching my goal this challenge (3rd times the charm?). Good luck to y'all!!

I'm almost 50, so my goal is to carry less of me into the future! 😊
I've added a lot of biking recently as I want to ride in the MS ride for the cure in September. I'm trying to count calories... Some days to make sure I get enough and some days to keep from having too many!7 -
Hello!
Thank you for setting this up! I am having such a difficult time with consistency. Over the past 4 years, I have gained 20 pounds. We moved to a different state and have such busy work schedules, that I keep falling back to eating junk and gaining weight
