BLC Part 4: Team #1 aka ~Mission Slimpossible~ Meet Here!!!

Hi everyone,

I don't believe a thread has been started for us...if so I apologize I didn't see it.  Anyways I figured we can all meet here to chat and motivate one another throughout the challenge...after all we do want to be the biggest losers!!!  Welcome aboard we can do this, we are the biggest losers!!!!

ejoy :)

Our Team Name: TEAM MISSION SLIMPOSSIBLE

Good luck Slimming Agents ;o

I will start w/introducing myself my screen name is ejoy, I'm here to lose about 30 lbs.  I am the mother of a beautiful 6 month old girl.  I have not always battled w/my weight, I was always use to being the little petite girl until about my mid 20s or so I started to slowly gain weight.  My heighest weight before I had my baby was 147, I lost that weight and then gained back that and some after having my baby girl briniging me to 155.  Losing the weight after the baby has been much harder than I expected, but I'm positive and motivated that I can do this.  I would love to be somewhere between 120 - 130.  I'm very excited about this challenge, I feel it will hold me accountable.

GO TEAM #1

Lucky you not always battling with your weight... My highest weight was 343... so maybe I'll lose some pounds for you!  I'm at 231.8 as of this morning, but I'm not sure where to sign in.

I'm excited, too... Highly motivated.... I"ve been going at this hard core for about two and half months and have lost 21 pounds so far.

The LONG verstion of "my story" is on the profile... but I am en EXEPERIENCED loser and am adding you to my friends... Glad we're part of the journey together!

I there I am trapp32 and I weigh 208.8 now and am trying to eventually get to 125. I have a long road ahead of me. I too have a baby she will be one on Friday. I also have a 14 yr old son. My highest weight about 3 yrs ago was 254. I got lower then got pregnant but actually came out of pregnancy 10lbs lighter than before I got pregnant.(I had gestational diabetes and was on a strict diet)

Hi texastech

You look great in your photos, I'm adding you too as my friend. 

Hi trapp32 - your daughter is adorable...we will both get to 125 one day I'm convinced, glad to have you here! 

Yay! Hi team!

My name is Amy.  I'm 21.  I started at Calorie Count in October '06 at 200 lbs and I'm down to 155.  I want to get to about 135, maybe 140 as I do like being somewhat curvy.

By the end of the challenge I am hoping to weigh 144 lbs.  Not a very aggressive goal but hopefully i'll have more luck achieving it then!

P.S. Ejoy, your baby girl is so Cuuuuute! oh my goodness!

Hey everyone!! I started at Calorie-Count a short while after I started my diet in June. Starting weight was 271. Today I weighed in at 241 (this is honestly a estimate because the scale says I'm about 5 lbs lighter than I am).

I don't have a goal for the 12 weeks. I just want to lose weight. =) I'm now tagging this thread.

Hey Team!!  Glad to be a part of your group!

 My name is Liz, and my goal is to lose about 35 lbs.   My weight today is 165.  When I started cc I was at 172 at the end of July.

I haven't struggled all my life with my weight.  I loved my old body. *sigh* (I am determined to get there again!!)  My weight problem began when I got pregnant with my 1st daughter.  Then it escalated when I began using Depo Provera.  After I stopped using it, I lost weight only to become preggo again with my 2nd daughter!!  *doh* Anyway to make a long story even longer, I am fat and I need to lose weight. LOL  Glad to meet you guys, and good luck to us all! :)

Hi team. ejoy thanks for starting this thread for us. FYI weigh in at  http://www.calorie-count.com/forums/post/4975 4.html   I hope everyone has a great 12 weeks of being healthy. Does anyone want to drink water with me for the challenge? Go team 1!

Thanks aeetheri, my baby girl is my heart!!!

Welcome everyone it's so motivtating to see that most of you have already lost some weight, that's great.  I lost a measly 5 lbs then gained it all back on vacation :(.  Good luck to everyone!!!

Thanks rileaf for posting the original thread for us to weigh in at!  I'll drink water w/you...so nothing but water for the next 12 wks I'm guessing that's how it goes??  As hot as it is I'm sure that won't be a problem lol!

LOL, hey ejoy I'm not so all or nothing anymore :)  I'm thinking 64oz a day or any amount a person can do for 12 weeks, even a water for every soda is great. I'm trying to be more balanced in the way I live, and it is great to make life time changes for the better. All the best, Ri

I'm with you guys on the water thing!

One of my goals for this month was to quit drinking diet pop anyway!

Hi everyone should we come up with a team name any suggestions?  I suck so I don't have any suggestions :(.

Should we try to think of a team name?

Or does everyone just want to stick with Team 1??

I always thought silly teams names were fun. I just have no imagination. =)

I think names are fun too... I'm so not a creative, but I saw the names The Bod Squad and The Yo-Yo's on the internet and thought they were cute. 

Hi everyone!  I'm so excited to be a part of this...hopefully it will give me the kick in the butt I need right now.  My starting weight at the end of April was 228.  I am now down to 209, but I seem to be in a slump!  I've been going between 210 and 208 for the last few weeks.  I'm hoping that the fear of letting down my fellow teammates will help get me back on the losing track.  I'm only 5'3" so I'm hoping to get down to 135ish.......some day : )

We could go REALLY simple... like Number One Losers...  or punny Weight For Us...
