    You can add me too! I'm heading to Mexico in 5 weeks (& then Canada to visit family) & i'll be seeing heaps of people I haven't seen in ages!! I've already been training for 5 weeks with barely any weight loss so hopefully this next 5 weeks will be different. I weigh approx 73 kilos now (which fluctuates daily between 72.8-74.5...so frustrating) & I'm 5'6. I'd love to be under 70 (& stay under 70 daily) by the time I leave for Mexico which I know doesn't seem that difficult but believe me...the weight doesn't want to move!

    My next goal will be Aug 31st (which is when my Australian visa expires) & I'll probably be going home for another visit. I'd like to be 65 (or less) by then. :)

    73 kilos=160.6 lbs
    70=154
    65=143

    Hey so great that so many people want to jump in!! It's great to see lots of people seem to have similar stats to my own!

    My biggest goal here is to do my cardio! The challenge is to keep everyone accountable for doing cardio any number of times a week that is suitable for your needs. (For me that's 5-6 days a week). Of course, still do any other exercise you take a part of. Like I said before, I LOVE doing weights, so that's still going to be in my regimen.

    So, I'd like everyone to post here what they did for cardio for the day beginning March 1st.

    I tend to lose track of threads on here sometimes also, so if anyone would like to add me on Facebook to make this a bit more personal in communicating, you can search for me: Marie Santos Rivera

    Thanks!!

    I'd like to join. I am 33 and I am currently at 195. I've lost 12 so far. My goal is 150 so I have 45 to go. I have been doing pretty good at sticking to my cardio workouts but I want to keep going. I also am thinking about setting a goal to start running...and perhaps join a 5k run at the end of March. I'm not sure if that is unrealistic or not but that would give me five weeks to prepare. Feel free to add me as a friend.

    Hi pls include me in. I am 5'2", current weight 116. Goal weight 110. I've been on this new healthy lifestyle for ten months now. Once I achieve my goal, maintenance is where the real work comes in. I also need to continue to tone through weights, and burn fat through cardio.

    count me in as well. I'm 5"2 and a half :) at 135 and would like to be 125 by the summer. I'm a cardio freak, but will be super busy with school next month so the challenge will make sure I'm consistent. :)

    I'm about 141lbs... 4'11".....57 years young and want to get to 125-130. I do a 100 mile challenge every month on MFP, which has made me up my cardio. I also do Zumba 1x/week and play tennis 1x/week. I love the weight training, but my trainer says the only way to get slimmer around the middle is to do cardio....jog/run in particular. The accountability on this site is what makes us all successful!!

    I'm in. 20+ yrs ago I was an amateur body builder. 15+ yrs ago the old lady metabolism hadn't kicked in yet. I've been too big for my clothes for 10+ yrs now. I've had enough. My goal is to be cut by bass season. I want obvious muscles when I hoist 2012 's big one. I have 20 #'s of 'insulation' to drop before I can even see what muscle is there.

    I'll be posting 5 cardio, prolly step aerobics, per week. Is there a strength training challenge to push me?

    Hey guys! I'm interested in meeting new folks and keeping each other accountable! I just discovered MyFitnessPal a few weeks ago and I'm in love! I've lost 12 pounds in the past 4 weeks and am working to melt off the last 20 so I can get back to the strong, fit gal I always was! Would love to befriend other MyFitnessPal-ers doing the same thing!

    Also, I just launched a Nutrition School if you guys are interested in adding a nutrition and fitness support system to your accountability. (http://nutrition.black20fitness.com) The next group class starts April 1st but you guys are welcome to hop into this inaugural class if that's something that interests you. If not, no worries at all. I just thought I'd put it out there since I've been rounding up my friends to do the same thing this month!
