    I would like to join too. Weekly weigh-ins may make me accountable (I hope).

    I weighed in this Monday and started exercising yesterday, so this group is perfect for me.

    GW: 120

    I have a hike in the Adirondacks planned for Memorial Day weekend and I'd like to be able to actually accomplish it wearing the same hiking clothes I wore 3 years ago. My doctor thinks I should be 110, but I've never been that low-so I think 120 is a nice compromise. Right?

    Hi, I'm glad I found this group! I had already been vaguely thinking about how much weight I'd like to lose before the end of June, so this is perfect!

    CW: 197
    GW: 182

    I'd like to lose 15 pounds in the next 12 weeks.

    Why: I do enjoy wearing dresses and skirts, but at my current weight, my thighs rub together too much. I will not get any more descriptive than that; many of you already know what I'm talking about! :laugh:

    I'm 33 years old and 5'4" tall.

    My starting weight is 135
    12 week goal is 129.

    I'm aiming for .5 pounds per week but sometimes I lose more. I tried losing faster but that put me on a 1200 calorie per day diet. I was always hungry! Now I'm sticking to at least my bmr 1350 plus a few calories. This has me at 1390 and I am so much happier. I'm not starving all day to keep under my goal and best of all I have energy to work out. I also eat at least half of my exercise calories. It's amazing what a difference 190 calories can make on my comfort level. It has also kept me from wanting to quit counting calories by lunchtime every day. :wink:

    Start Weight: 182

    12 Week Target: 164 - 170

    After going down to 150 lbs two summers ago, I've crept back up to my highest weight ever. I enjoy summer at a lower weight. I want to be able to be comfortable in my clothes and right now I'm not.

    Start Weight (3/12): 199.4
    12 Week Challenge Goal: 179

    Reason for Wanting to Lose By Summer: I am going on vacation in June and want to be happy with how I look in the pictures. I'm also really excited about getting under 191 lbs, which will mean I'm no longer obese!

    I'm really excited about the challenge!

    I have thyroid problems and over the years I've gained 20 pounds in a week... multiple times. The latest of which was early December. I've lost five of it but my 12 week goal is to lose 20 pounds so I can wear last years clothes. My thyroid levels were just declared "normal" and I'm working hard to see a difference.

    Start weight -235 pounds
    12 week goal - 215 pounds

    Hi all!

    I am a little behind but better late than never! My current weight (as of March 12) is 196.6 lb. My goal is 21 lb or 175. My reason for this goal is to make me have a reason to lose! I have tried to lose weight for like 7 years but now I will actually feel bad if I have to type that I didn't do it :)

    My reason is so that I can return to my pre-pregnancy weight. Then I can work on my ultimate goal of weighing 135-140 pounds:)

    Start Weight: 160lbs
    Goal Weight: Uh, I guess around 130lbs?

    Twelve weeks from now is like, what? Probably around June.

    Considering I have a dress I need to squeeze into around my birthday, I seriously need to step it up and stop being the lazy couch potato college student. Plus, if I lost 30 pounds in twelve weeks, that'll push me harder to lose the next 30 pounds in the next twelve weeks after that... and I'm pretty sure I'll surprise my college friends with a skinny version of me starting the next school year.

    Then I can start working on my super cute college wardrobe *rubs hands together* heehee~

    Current weight: 106.4lbs
    12 week target: 115lbs
    By the end of summer: 120lbs

    I'm doing P90x and trying to gain muscle mass. I'll probably burn off the excess fat I gain after I gain the muscle.

    Current Weight: 249
    Ultimate Ideal Weight: 175
    12 Week Goal Weight: 225

    I'm 5'11" and built on a large frame, so I carry my weight better than most- a blessing and a curse. I've lost from 285 (36 pounds) in the last year, but I really want to kick my weight-loss into higher gear. I joined MyFitnessPal in the end of January when I realized how awesome it was. My calorie goal is 1,400/day with a workout goal of 60 minutes 5 days a week.
    Bring on the pound shedding :)

    Start wt 269
    Goal 245 (24lbs lost)

    I want to average at least 2 lbs per week with changing my diet and working out. Long term goal is to get down to 200lbs so I can play more with my kids and feel better and hopefully get of some medications that I have to take right now. I am on the right track I lost 5lbs last week and a total of 10lbs in the last month. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

    Start weight (mar 12): 191
    12 week goal: 170

    I just want to be able to look nice in shorts again. And when I take my kids to the pool I would like to be able to participate rather than just hanging out on the sidelines. It is all about bringing up my confidence and self esteem once again and of course I would like to wear that tankini again with pride!!!

    Start weight (4/13): 169
    12 week goal : 149

    I want to get back my body back from before I had my daughter a year ago, I have Hypothyroidism bad, and its been hard, in fact I had to cut out grains, breads, meat and dairy to even see a slight loss! So I eat fruit , veggies, nuts and seeds and try to eat as raw as I can!
    I want to lose 20 lb. ( I may be pushing it , but I dont care) I am going to literally work my butt off! Bring it!
    Any other plant eaters can add me if they want like-minded friends!
