    Great challenge idea. I'm hoping to maybe push a little more than 5, since I want to reach my GW by June.

    NSV: Wore the smallest pair of jeans I've ever had as an adult all day yesterday, comfortably. See ya later, super-belted, too-big jeans!

    I did this for March and dropped 4 pounds in the month. Find this challenge very motivating and inspiring to see other's stories, struggles and achievements too!!

    NSV: Being able to do several push-ups in plank position rather than on my knees! Huge victory for me!!

    Total lost.

    I'm new to the challenges and just started back in after being gone for a long time. I think that by joining a group, maybe I can be more proactive towards becoming more healthy! Many thanks for the encouragement!! Plan to report an NSV soon!:happy:

    NSV is getting back on track without letting the last few weeks of bad eating sabotage me to the point of giving up (like always).

    My first challenge. Including MFP I have lost 41 pounds so far, very slowly. I'm here because I'm really afraid of the "final 10" -- everyone tells me they are the hardest.

    My moment: Accidentally reached for my 15 year old daughter's jacket for my walk and it fit. (OK, it fit snugly :-))
