Hello everyone.  I'm a 32 yr old mom two girls 4 & 7.  I work full time and have struggled with my weight since having kids.  Big shock!  I'm close to my goal weight and have 12 pounds to go.  I exercise at least 3 times a week but try for 5.  I'm excited about this and wish everyone luck.

Hi everyone!

I'm Ren. I'm also from Canada. I just needed to get my butt in gear (literally) as I got too comfy thinking I could eat whatever I wanted and not exercise consistently! Riiiight.

I'm 5'7" and as of last night 159lbs. I'm 31 years old, married for a year and a half and I currently work full-time, while going to University part-time. I love swimming, camping, hiking, archery and reading.

My goal is to get to 140lbs. I've already started losing weight, as I was 165-168 last summer. I've decided I never want to look like I did in last year's summer pictures. :o

Well, I think we're off to a great start, and it's a pleasure "meeting" all of you. Good luck!

Ren :D

Hiya M,

Good for you on the extreme weight loss and the book writing. FYI, just a note, you mean to type "lose," not "loose." Also, good luck on the weight loss through the Biggest Loser challenge.

Cheers!

Ren :D

Hi to all, My name is Anne. I am 35 yrs old, have three kids, A 5 year old girl and 3 yr old twins, boy and girl. My husband stays home to care for the kids while I work as an Occupational Therapist in the school system. I would love to lose 50 lbs, but right now my smaller goal is to get to 165 that's 20 lbs away. I'm back to the weight I was was when I got pregnant with my last child, Tahlin, who was born on xmas eve a year ago. She was full term but stillborn due to knots in her cord tightening when she dropped for labor. My mom passed in October. So, I've had a very hard and emotional year and I've eaten my way through much of it. When I get to 165 I will be ready to get pregnant again. As a gift to that child, I will be healthier when I start! (not to metion a gift to myself and my whole family). I can't wait to see my numbers drop again! I need your support folks! Ideas ideas ideas! How do you get the exercise in with such a busy life? I'm ready to start! Thanks to each of you for joining our team!!!

Hiya everyone, I'm Bethan (pronounced Bee-thin; I was told this was the Welsh way of saying my [nick]name). I'm 18 and a freshman at UMass, hopefully to be accepted into the Computer Science major. I love computers and technology a bunch, whether it breaks down or not :) I'm also very much into astronomy and art, willing to sit out on a cold February night to plot stars and make spacescapes through Photoshop. Aside from my nerdy self, I'm starting to seriously take my health into consideration. Last wednesday I weighed in at 200lbs, and though I don't see too much improvement this week, I've started cardio and yoga (today) to get myself into exercise. Hopefully by next week I'll be sufficient help to my team!! My goal weight is 160, and possibly even 150. I believe joining in this competition is one of the biggest motivators in my challenge to lose weight.

If anyone ever needs some motivation to keep on going, I'm happy to help (even though I'm a newbie to all this, really).
Good luck everyone!!

I join ed cc to get a better handle on eating healthier and to lose weight I have a total of 99 more to go til target weight.
