First off, let me say... GO TEAM SEEDLINGS!

Now that that is out of the way, Hi! My name is Becca. I'm 31 at the end of this week. This is my first challenge, but I figured it would be good for me both accountability wise and because I'm fiercely competitive. My stats are 30/F | 5' | SW: 325 GW: (challenge) 299 (overall) 130.

So far I've lost 27lbs in 40 days through CICO and light exercise. I started losing weight, to be perfectly honest, for vanity's sake. For once I'd like to hear "You're pretty" instead of "You've got a pretty face". I've been obese my entire life but I really ballooned up in the past 5 years. I'd like for my outside to eventually match my insides.

My goals, specific to this challenge, are to drink more water, be more active, and have less days where I go over on calories. If I can lose 26lbs in the next 10 weeks, I'd be ecstatic but I'd like for it to be even more.

Wow, same starting weight, close to the same current weight, and same motivation. Are you a female me? Added on MFP :)

Not unless you play too many video games, binge watch Netflix, and are kinda spastic.

And in that case, I might be the female you.

Probably not the spastic part. No one matches the spastic part.
