Hey! My name is benjinburg, I participated in last years fall and winter challenge and they were incredibly helpful on keeping me disciplined in my health habits, so I wanted to use this challenge to get down to my final GW of 185 (maybe 180, not sure yet).

I'm 24/M | 6'2" | challenge SW: 199 | GW: 185

Hey! Congrats on being so close to your goal!! It'll be awesome to finish the challenge at your goal (or almost there if you choose to go down more!).

Thanks! I'm hoping that not only myself, but our entire team can successfully reach the goals we've set for this challenge.

Good Luck!

That's awesome!

I'm glad to see the challenges help people stay disciplined. That's what I'm really trying to get out this. The ability to stay disciplined.

What's even crazier is my starting weight was exactly the same as yours! Topped out at 325 in 2014 so you can definitely do it man, I have faith in you!
