    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. :)

    Yep I am at 190.8 right now, my march goal is to get to 180 and work out more period, it has been hard finding the energy between taking care of 3 kids and divorce, but I will get it done as I am also in the may 1st bikini challenge on mfp :)

    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!

    I'm interested :)
    I've been losing focus this last week which is a pain! Since last Feb I have lost 32 pounds but I only discovered MFP in January so I'm trying to lose the next 32 pounds by June (not feeling too positive but I will try)
    My friend told me the other day that I'm his inspiration and that made me smile so much and feel pretty damn good. I've helped him change his diet and go to the gym so I would love to help other people who are struggling if I could. To me it's no longer a diet but a lifestyle change :D

    I would love to join! I need people to hold me accountable! I am currently at 151 lbs and am looking to get to 135 lbs. I am currently doing cardio 2-3 times a week, but would love to do 5 days a week!

    Thinking about buying a HRM to this week to get an accurate reading on my calories burned!

    See ya on Thur with my cardio update!

    Thanks for doing this!

    I really, really, really want to do this! Losing 7 - 10 lbs would be awesome! Doesn't seem like much but if I don't get my weight under control now, it'll creep up and be outta control in no time. I'm always losing 2 and gaining 3....a vicious cycle. :)

    I'm in. I am doing Ironman Kansas 70.3 June 10th and I am wanting to race between 185-195. I am currently 217 which give me 22+ lbs to lose in just over 3 months.

    This should not be a problem with the insane amount of time I will be spending swimming, biking and running! I am also running my first full marathon this Sunday March 4!!
