January-March challenge

Hey, I'm Caitlin. I decided to join because I'm at my highest weight and my health and quality of life is suffering from the choices I've made, so its time to get serious about my health again. My goal is to lose 15 by the end of March and hopefully never find them again.

Highest weight ever: 345. (lost down to 210 about 7 years ago but alas...didnt keep it off)

Hi. I'd like to join if 1) it is not too late and 2) no one is uncomfortable with a male in your group. (It's okay if that's an issue, I will move elsewhere. I do not want to be an impediment to anyone else's success.)
This is a restart for me. I have not only found all the weight I lost, I found all of its relatives too.
I will weigh in tomorrow (1/2) but I am somewhere around 240 with a goal of getting down to 220 in the short term, 210 by year end, and 180 if we're talking big dreams. 6 feet tall, 63 years old, happily married to my best friend for the last 40 years. Diabetic, HBP, bald and full of dad jokes.
Plan is logging food, walking, and limiting empty calories.6 -

Hi, I'm Pixy!
I like the idea of a three month challenge. I've recently restarted. I lost 110 lbs and got down to 199. It took over a year with a balance of execise and calories. Then in 2014 I pinched my sciatic nerve. My doctor insisted I cease ALL exercise and it would resolve itself. My diet lasted about 6 months and then the creep started. My sciatica didn't resolve itself and a year later I had laproscopic surgery to remove the pressure from my disc. By the time I was cleared for activity, I was back to 260. Disillusioned I couldn't make myself restart right away (I felt my body had betrayed me). But with COVID layoffs and not working, my weight recently shot back over 300. I'm back because it's time and I'm tired of hurting myself everytime I start an activity or even twist wrong. LOL! Wear and tear on the body is brutal at this weight. I just hit the 40lb loss and plan to keep going!

Hello gang, my name is Stormy. I’m a 72-year-old male who loves softball, bowling, pickleball, and eating. I love playing sports and do a decent job at most of them. On the other hand, I am a world-class eater and have eaten my way to 196.6 pounds as of today. Quite an achievement for someone who is only 5’ 4.5 “ tall.
I have joined this group to gain motivation, inspiration, and insight to avoid reaching the 200-pound mark. Hopefully, I found you all just in time. I will be weighing in on Sundays and looking forward to hearing your success stories, kind words of encouragement, and advice on getting/staying healthy.

I have gained 2 pounds over the Christmas/New Year period and I am struggling to contain the weight gain. I am not setting any specific goals over the 3 months other than to achive a downward trend in my weight again.

I think I'm at a low point in my weight fluctuation and that my weight's gonna show a higher number tomorrow. But maybe it'll be lower in my next check-in 1 -

Hi everyone,
Please can I join? I want to do a fast focused weight loss. Never stuck to a diet before but I really want to get rid of the excess soon and then make my focus for the year on maintaining the new weight. I have to lose 30lb to be my ideal weight which is the healthy average weight for my height. I'm not aiming to be the skinniest woman on the block.
I am a UK, London-based 58-year old, working from home in a sedentary job. I'm also mum to two young men both in final year uni and coming home often for home cooked food and support!
I love hiking, weight training and yoga so hope to get back into all of these and to start going to a dance class once a week too.3 -
Hello all, I’m Amanda from Michigan. I belong to 2 other challenges on here but thought I would give this one a try! I will post my weight on Mondays.
I lost 45 pounds in 2022 and would like to lose at the very least 45 more in 2023. I have some scary medical procedures coming up in January and have no idea how they will affect my weight!
Good luck to everyone!

Happy New Year!
I would love to join this group! I’m Carla, 57 and life in the Midwest. I am a cancer survivor (twice) and because of treatments I now have liver and heart issues. I’ve been told by two doctors to start the Mediterranean Diet. I’ve been pretty good following it and it’s really tasty. Weird how I can eat grains etc and still lose weight! I’ve already lost 7 lbs but gained 2 back over Christmas (darn shortbread!!) but starting today back at it full force with some exercise added in for kicks! Looking forward to getting to know you all!!

I'm in. 38, 5'8", Kentucky. Don't know current weight exactly because I don't want to, but I'll hop on Friday to start w/Friday weigh ins. Diagnosed with Crohn's in November 2015 and have gained 125 pounds since... even with having had a breast reduction in February 2022! It's been one health issue after another for the past 11 months, including two surgeries, a tilt with C.dif which is NO JOKE, chronic sinus infections, a broken foot that would NOT heal, plus the usual Crohn's nonsense. In short, I have a lot of reasons but I really need to get my stuff together and not let them be excuses anymore. At my age, I'm not sure it's realistic to get back down to 150ish, but I'd like to lose 100 pounds to 175ish. So here's to (get another) fresh start. Chin up, chest out!3

So my official weigh ins are Thursdays but I do weigh myself daily. +2.2lbs from last week. Mostly Christmas food that is. Time to get back on it now!1

Changed jobs in 2021 and became more sedentary. In first 6 months of new job, I gained back all the weight I lost after baby #3 years ago. Been managing this higher weight for a year - can't lose but fortunately stopped gaining. Now my challenge is to lose by moving more and not eating more and building back muscle.
