    Hi All,

    I joined in Sept of 2011 - and didnt stick with it like I should have after I started my new job. Mandatory 45 hours a week was killer after being unemployed for 6 months! It was physical work too and I have just been exhausted from the moment I opened my eyes til the moment I closed them at night.

    So...unfortunately I have only lost 16 lbs since then. Cant really tell 16 lbs is gone :-(

    I am a single woman - 33 - and in July - my very best friend is coming to see me on his way to Airforce training. We have been friends and in touch daily for the last 3.5 yrs and I am totally smitten to say the least lol. He is aware of this fact, but we dont talk about it. However, he said he would drive 7 states out of the way to come see me this summer and I am keeping those fingers crossed lol. BUT I HAVE TO LOSE THIS WEIGHT!!!

    So....new position I will be starting that will not require me to be completely exhausted every day of the week thanks to a new promotion. Got my Shakeology box delivered this last week...and despite this ghastly injury- I am ready to get myself in tip top shape any way I can! Well...any healthy way I can :-) I dont have much going for me in the face department...so this body needs to work over time! lol.

    Anyway, I am glad to be back on track...hopefully able to hold myself accountable with your help and encouragement...and Looking forward to a new me and possibly a new life :-) (wont hold my breathe tooo much for that yet lol)

    Starting weight in Sept was 202 - current weight is 185 - target weight for July 145 -150 and overall target weight 135-140.

    Hi everyone,

    I joined MFP last year but I didn't really use it until last week. I am 27 years old (5'6", female) and currently weigh 175. My goal is to get to 140 so this challenge is perfect for me. I recently moved to the Congo to teach and have been having a difficult time getting adjusting to healthy living. I look forward to having some friends keep me on track!

    Hi everyone!! My name is Becky, I'm 31, mom to an amazing 2 year old, wife and full time student. I have finally decided to lose the weight the right way and not go on crazy diets that turn me into a raging monster!! I've started going to the gym and trying all of the classes they have to offer...I'm becoming a little obsessed with Spinning!!
    I have 20 pounds of baby weight I have to get off before I think about having another baby so if I can lose 30 that would be great!

    Height: 5'6
    SW: 200
    CW: 194
    Goal: 150 (unless I get pregnant before then and then my goal is to NOT gain 60 pounds again!)

    Hi all,

    I'm Linda. 5'8" with a small frame.
    I started my journey to a "better me" in July 2011 @ somewhere just over 200lbs (I don't know exactly because I refused to look at the scale, but the Dr. told me I was over 200).
    Learned about MFP in January and signed up at 182lbs.
    I am currently @ 165.2 and I would LOVE to make it to my goal weight of 135 before July 1st, but I'll settle for on the first :wink:

    I look forward to watching all of us on this journey to kick that last 30 in the teeth!!!
    Good luck to everyone! :flowerforyou:

    Hi!
    I'm Taylor- 32, getting married in August.
    SW, 162
    CW, 157.5
    GW, 130

    been struggling a LONG time to lose the 5lbs I have...I've been on medication that just WONT allow me to lose weight... quite frustrating w my wedding fast approaching.
    My adult life, ive never weighed more than 150, so its really hard going thru this "exciting" time being so discouraged by my weight.
    My daily goal is 1400 calories & workout 4x a week... plus I'm running a marathon in May! Woo hoo
