Hi, my name is Scherita and I'm 33 as well. I am married with three children, two girls and a boy. I have been struggling with my weight for some years. And I think this challenge is exactly what i need. My family is planning on going on a cruise in June so i could use a kick in the butt to get this weight loss going. My current weight is 198.6. I will shoot for a 50lb weight loss by June as well.

current weight: 196.0

Hi Everyone! My name is Helen, 33 yrs old, married to my wonderful husband, we have a beautiful daughter. I have been struggling with my weight all my life. I have high blood pressure, diabetes, and low thyroid. I take 5 different types of medication a day and I would like to change that. I have a goal to lose 50 lbs by June 21st. My current weight is 270 lbs. In order for me to reach that goal I would have to lose 8 lbs a month. I am confident I can do this.

I would like to challenge anyone who is interested in joining me to lose 50lbs by summertime (June 21st)! I would love support and I would like to get to know you.

I recently quit Weight Watchers because I found Sparkpeople and I think this will be the right community for me to be in. Weight Watchers was not working for me so hopefully the tools and the support on this site will help me be successful on my weight loss journey.

If you do decide to join please introduce yourself and your goals. The more the better! We're all in this together!
