    Hello,

    I have been a member on MFP for a while now but I have been finding it difficult as I haven't had the motivation. I recently added some people on here and added the app to my blackberry which has made it much easier for me. I am not very good at setting goals and keeping to them and I have only lost weight once and I got to 8st 7lb but it was hard to maintain. I am now however older (25 years old and I am noticing it is much harder to lose weight then it was back when I was 20 years old). I think this is a great group and if anyone would like to add me then that would be great.

    I am 5foot 3inches and I currently weight 11 st 5lbs I would like to be 10st but I don't know if this is too much to hope for to lose 19lbs by feb 14th? What would be a realistic goal as I do not want to set myself up to fail and feel bad about myself.

    Would it be realistic to say I could lose 2lbs a week? this would mean I would have lost 10lbs by valentines day :)

    good luck with your weight loss everyone :smile:

    I'm not new to MFP, but feel like I am starting new. I did great mid-summer and early fall and then set it all aside. I've gained back 7 of the origianl 18 I lost. So, my valentines goal is to get rid of the re-gained 7 and loose an additional 5.

    You can loose 10 lbs in the next 5 weeks if you are committed. Make sure you log all your food and exercise and committ to drinking water in replacement of soda, coffee, tea, etc.

    Like I said, I'm obviously no expert but I have a lot to loose (both physically and emotionally). Support in a group is what I need, so please keep posting here so we all can benefit for each other.

    Do something meaningful today!!

    I'm at 223 and plan to be 210 by Valentine's Day! I love having a solid short term goal. It really helps with the motivation. I recently quit smoking and I definitely need to track my food to not gain any more weight.

    Have a great day everyone!!!

    Thank you. I will try to keep at the water, I do drink far to much coffee etc. It's nice to have a support group. Lets see if we can all hit our goals for Valentines and we can all be very proud of ourselves. :D

    Hi all! I'm new to MFP and thought I should get involved as soon as possible!

    I'm 6 ft. and my current weight is 249 (although this fluctuates within 5lbs a day, what is going on?!)
    And my goal weight by Valentine's Day is to get into the 230s. (I can't remember when I was under 240!)

    Let's do this!!! :D

    I feel I'm doing really well with this challenge! I hope that I will stay on the right track. I also joined the burn 3500 calorie a week group. Im accountable for burning the amount of calories I set to burn each week. Both of these challenges work hand and hand for me!!! I will reach my goal weight by Valentine's Day :happy:
