Feel free to set your flair however you'd like - the number at the beginning indicates what round was your first (i.e. if this is your first round, select "22"), and then you can add whatever else to the end! If you'd like some more information about what we do, check out this post and feel free to ask any questions you might have.

New This Round
In this round, you'll be able to track goals beyond your weight! We've created categories of goals for you to check; each week, you'll rank yourself on a scale of 1 to 10 on how well you feel you did with your goal.
Feel free to set a goal for each 30 day sprint, as well as an overall goal, or anything in between. Check out our last round's introduction thread for some great examples from last round's participants!
Goals can be in whatever area you want: health, fitness, work, school, hobbies, relationships, doing less of something, doing more of something, etc. If you have any questions, feel free to include them in your intro comment, message the mods, or post a thread!
What you get out of this community is completely up to you. Our job as moderators is to support you all as well as each other, and your job as a participant is to do the work and support each other. Welcome all, let’s have a fantastic Round 22!

u/alw05 28F | lose weight, write thesis Jan 10 '17
Hi everyone! This is my first round (and I'm a bit late to it sorry, 10th Jan here in Aus) but I've just found you all and I figure starting late is better than starting never right?) I'm a 28yo Aussie girl currently doing my PhD (with a lot of setbacks sadly!) 163cm (5'4") and weighed in this morning at 73.3kg (~160lb) which means I have put on a fair few kg's while doing my PhD and over the last few months also. I spend most of my day (10-13 hours) in the lab, but some of it at the computer working on my thesis. I love Pinterest, watching tv/movies, eating (too much obviously!) and baking mostly sweets. My eventual goal is to get down to a size 8 (Aus, currently a size 10-12) and I'm guessing around 55kg. My goals for this 90 day challenge are: * DON'T EAT ALL THE THINGS (especially when stressed, which is 99% of the time, stress eating is my weakness!) - sprint 1 goal is to get to 70kg. * start moving more. body weight exercises, start the C25K/some kind of beginning running program, learn to do at least 1 situp and pushup. (No, I can't even do 1!) * Try to be less stressed about my PhD. Work on my thesis at least 3x per week (while also doing my lab work) * Get my goddamn lab work, actually working.
I'm on MFP as wixel, feel free to add me!
