    This summer I'm focusing on MY HEALTH! As a teacher this is my time to focus energy on myself. Life at home is changing with kids in college and summer jobs. No swim meets or cheer competitions for me. No more excuses! LOVE the philosophy of not looking too far ahead since that is one of my downfalls. This group is already encouraging me! Thanks!

    Hello all! I started getting semi-serious about losing weight/getting in shape at the end of April 2012. I realized that I only had 4 months before I had have measurements for my wedding dress and decided that I wanted to be able to send in measurements a few inches smaller! My name is Jessica, I have two little girls- Averie who is 3 and Morgan who is 10 months- that keep me busy, happy and frustrated all at the same time!!

    Hi everyone!

    I'm Nichole and I am looking to get healthy and strong! I joined a women's boot camp last Feb and am currently on my third 6 week session. I encourage anyone who is in a rut to join a similar group as it has motivated me so much! I have gone from not being able to run up my street to completing two 5k races and signing up for 2 obstacle course races (umm very scared of these though!)

    Hey guys!
    I am Anastasia, I am 23 years old. I lost 50lbs through MFP but than fell of the wagon and gained 30lbs back...Basically I burned myself out, it's depressing sorta cause I could have surpassed my goal weight by now if I hadn't taken the last 4 months off, but you live and you learn!

    Anyway I am here back to get on track to reach my goal weight by my birthday-December 17th. Definitely need something like this group to keep me accountable! :)

  • Hi! My current goal is to lose 23 pounds by my 23rd birthday. (6 down so far, 17 more to go!) This group should work out perfectly because my bday is August 26th--right near the end of the challenge. I've been using MFP for about two weeks, but I'm still pretty new to the forums. Feel free to add me to your friends list, for I'm friendless at the moment.

    Hello there. My name is Tina and I am 5'4 and 32 years of age. I'm going to be doing this and another challenge over the next 90 days. I'm starting the Turbo Fire program on the 1st. Along with eating healthier, I've just been walking and doing some resistance training since April 30th and lost 5 pounds already. I tend to lose slow due to medical issues, but I'm losing and feeling great. That's all that matters. ;)

    Hi everyone! My name is Kim. I just turned the dreaded 4-0 in February. I am a wife and mother of 3, a 17 yr old, a 13 yr old and a 3 yr old. I have struggled my entire life with weight problems and self esteem problems and I'm just so tired of not liking how I look! Also I realized that I have to be a role model for my 17 yr old, she is going in the same direction that I am in and I feel so guilty about it and I want to show her that we can lose and we can look FABULOUS! I need to get on it NOW and work hard and push her to work hard so that when she goes off to college at the end of the year next year she feels as beautiful as I know she is! Also I need to be able to keep up with my littlest one because she's a ROCKET!! So feel free to add me and I promise to kick your butt if you'll kick mine!!

    Hii! My name is Nikki. I am 24 and from Northern Illinois! I used to be very in shape and skinny until about 4/5 years ago. January of this year I have decided I am way too young to be carrying around all of this extra weight and have been slowly losing. I have lost 28 pounds so far and have about 40 more to go! This is my second group. My first was a 30 Day Shred May group and I failed miserably. But I am totally determined to lose another 25 by August so I can finally try on wedding dresses! Anyone who wants to add me feel free! I try to be as supportive as possible! :)

    HI!
    I am Sam.
    I decided to get back into shape when I went into the hospital to have my little girl. I weighed 233!!! I couldn't believe that I had let myself weigh that much. After having her I was in the 190s and it looks horrible on my small frame!

    Highest Weight = 233lbs
    Starting Weight for MFP = 189
    Starting Weight for this group = 187
    Goal Weight for this group = 157
    Ultimate Goal Weight = 120-130ish ( I will know when I get there)

    Here's to an awesome 90 days with you guys!
