    I'm in! I'm having the hardest time getting motivated to keep eating healthy (longer than 2 weeks) and I need some sort of accountability or something! I had great success on MFP last year, but thought I could do it on my own and FAILED... gained back all the weight :( So, I'm back and I really want this weight gone for good!

    Starting Weight-193.8
  • I only want to loose about 7 lbs more. I have already lost 20 or so.
    It is more difficult now.
  • This is the first group I've ever joined, but I think a short-term goal like this will help motivate me. Here's to looking hot in my NYE dress!

    Start: 130

    Thanks for inviting me to the group even though I don't exactly fit. :) I am 149.5 today and only 9.5 pounds to go! So I am fairly sure I can't expect 5 pounds in the next 3 weeks but I want to lose 1-2 pounds by New Years.
  • Let's do it!
    Start: 151lbs. :)

  • I still am about 15-20lbs away from where I want to be but I would love to lose 5 before New Years! I have an awesome dress that I can't wait to wear :)
  • I'm still almost 40 pounds from where I want to be, haha. I'm 163.5 right now, let's do this!
  • My weight has plateaued for the last 3 & 1/2 weeks & FINALLY yesterday I had a loss. I am ready to DO THIS!
    My weight as of yesterday was 171.2
    I really wanted to be in the 160s by the first of the year so this is the perfect challenge for me. I just signed up today with myfitnesspal and am looking forward to making friends with others who know exactly what I am going through.

    I would love to join you all! I have noticed myself getting weak lately because I know the holidays are coming up and I want to give into temptation. I need to stop it right now! My weight is 178.2 and my goal is 150, so I have 28 pounds to go. I'm ready!
  • This is a great idea!! I really want to lose at least 5 pounds by New Years!! I have lost 14.5 pounds so far and need to lose about another 32 pounds. I would like to lose that by March but know that may be asking too much. My current weight is 167 pounds. We can do this!!!
  • I'm ready! 12/13- 144

    I'm hoping this will be my jump start to a weight loss. I have actually already lost 10 pounds in the past week or 2 just watching what I am doing and cutting back on the sodas. But now it is actually weight that I need to loose now. I have always plateaued around 155 or 150 so I think that if I can get to that point and start the year off "fresh" in the direction of my never-give-up-mind-set. I know I can do it. I am ready to do this for once!
  • I want/need to lose at least 5 pounds for New Years! What a horrible month to diet! I have such a sweet tooth, and being a momma of six kids, Ilm constantly making them goodies. This is the month I love baking!
  • Oh yeah...weigh 145 now. Want to be 135ish (Still nursing, so I have to be kinda careful).
  • This is the first group I have joined and I'm excited to lose this 5 (well 6 would be nice) lbs before the new year!
    Starting weight 162.0.

    Good luck to everyone!

    I'm excited to finish the year with a bang!

  • Take a deep breath and feel good about what you have lost. Your body might suprise you. Keep rewarding it with health foods and excersice and it will show you a loss!
  • I always seem to have those last 10 pounds to lose, or maybe more like 15 now, but I never quite get around to it! I think this is a great goal and I am excited to start! Two workouts in a row this week which is huge for me! I am at 141 and my ultimate goal is 125-130. I think 130 is more sustainable without driving myself crazy. I am 5'3". Best wishes to everyone. Be strong!

    oh, are we not going to weigh in every week until the 1st? I think that would help with accountability :) maybe on Fridays?
