Today as I was logging my exercise, I realized that I am already over my goal of 150 minutes of exercise for the week, and the week isn't over yet! As a girl who does NOT like to work out, I may admit I did a little bit of a happy dance when I saw this. Okay, okay, you got me. It was a BIG happy dance. But hey, I had just…

HA! Yes that is basically the route I was going with that. For some reason, my SO is leery about letting me name our future children, ever since I watched an episode of Whose Line and fell in love with the name Chesterfield Snapdragon McFisticuffs... Apparently that's just too much for a child to live up to. Who'da thunk…

:happy: Why thank you, kind sir!

Hello everyone! I am new to the group and have enjoyed reading everyone's reasons for wanting to lose weight, and I thought I'd share a bit of my own. I'll start by saying my name is Jess, and I am 24 years old... I hit puberty at a young age, and my weight has steadily increased since then - I was in a size 26 by the time…

Thanks for all the welcomes!! I've been in groups similar to this on other websites, but never one on MFP (which makes sense, since I'm new to the site). I am really excited to get September underway and see everyone's progress! I was going to make a witty comment about trolls and bridges, but it's early and my brain…

I'm really glad you specified the *your* part in this. Otherwise, next thing you know we'd have people running around amputating strangers' limbs thinking they'd lose weight! Well, the chase would burn calories... Hmm...

Stalk mine if you like! I try to log everything - the good, the bad, and the ugly... Some days are better than others but that's life, eh? And feel free to add, the more motivational and supportive friends, the better!

Hi! I am also in Washington, and I also have quite a bit of weight to lose, and I understand how difficult it is when it seems like the weight won't come off. Feel free to add me if you would like a friend who will motivate and support you throughout your journey.

Hi! My nickname is, coincidentally Jess... Short for Jessica, nothing crazy like Jessaurasophagus or anything... Sadly my parents weren't quite that creative!

Hello, everyone! I'm new to the group and I'd love to join in on this to have even more accountability. SW:301.8 CW: 301.8 GW: 295 LTGW: Undetermined Week 1: 09/05/13: Week 2: 09/12/13: Week 3: 09/19/13: Week 4: 09/26/13:

I'm also looking to shed close to 150lbs, and I would love to have supportive friends in the same boat as me. Anyone feel free to add me, I keep an open diary and I try my hardest to be supportive and motivate others. Good luck, y'all!

You're forgiven. ... This time.

Wow. I was not expecting this many responses, especially this quickly! Thank you everyone. I think that for the time being, I will average out what MFP and MMR give me and use that number, to be on the safe side. As my daily calories are at 1900 already, I don't generally eat many of my exercise calories back anyways, so…

Welcome, and good luck in your journey!! Feel free to add me, I try to be as supportive and active as possible and could use like-minded friends.

I've only been here a short time, but am doing my best to log daily - the good, the bad, and the ugly (as evidenced by this morning's breakfast... Sigh.) Feel free to add me, I try my best to be supportive and I love having supportive friends! Either way, good luck on your journey!

Feel free to add me, and good luck in your journey!

Welcome back, Julie! I'm just starting over as well, and have quite a few pounds to lose. Good luck in your journey, feel free to add me if you need some extra support!

Thanks, Ann and Ginny! Best of luck to the both of you as well.

Thanks so much!!

I can't work out without music. I listen to disturbed, korn, godsmack, and the like. Gives me that extra 'oomph' that I need!
