You can do it, Gina!!! I'm so glad you joined us!
Please see my post just before yours....it had to be updated due to top Admin recommendations.  But, that's okay! We are doing this mainly for ourselves to get healthier, but doing it fun competition style just helps get rid of the doldrums on a journey we all are making already anyway. 
Here's wishing you all the umph you need to surpass your goal!!

Dearest Santa,
For Christmas, I no longer want to be considered"OBESE".... I want to get my BMI to where I am simply "OVERWEIGHT"....
so, that will be at 185 pounds (32 pounds in 14 weeks is about 2.3 pounds a week... I can do it! )

Cute idea (Dear Santa)!!!! Put a smile on my face.
You CAN do it!!! We will do this together....I'm really excited about all of us who will be making extra efforts to reach our mini goal! This will be fun.

For anyone who is up to creating an avatar... maybe we could make a few and have a vote on them or something??? I'd be interested in trying to make one, just drop some ideas as to what you're thinking of having it say or be?

Cool!! A few ideas:
1. I met my "Merry Christmas to Me" goal
2. I met my 12/25/07 mini goal on 3FC
3. I thought I could and I did! Christmas Contest 2007
4. "I'm a Weight Loss Challenge Winning Chick!" (because we are all winners when we lose any amount of weight, right?)
If you go back a few posts, Jen415 described a design in her post as well.
As already mentioned, some don't celebrate Christmas, so we would need to think about something that could go either way or maybe have 2 to chose from - one that is Christmas and one that isn't. Just a thought...we still have a few weeks so hopefully some better ideas will come in by that time.
Thanks for offering!

Cool deal - I'll get to work on a few of them today. I love doing stuff like this. If anyone else can make them - MAKE THEM! And we can have a few to choose from....

Ooh, I'm in too!
I'd like to be in the 220s by Christmas if possible, but I'd be more than happy with 233!

Even though I have six pounds to lose, not 14, I hope that I can join in? During the holiday season, it's always great to have a goal to get you through the temptations. I love contests, and I'd love to have a cool avatar.
The avatar idea is a great one. My avatar used to be my gorgeous granddaughter, but some creepy person who got on 3FC one day posted an offensive remark about her ethnicity.

Oh no, Sheila! I had no idea. Your grandaughter is beautiful. Your avatar always made me smile.

I've never created an avatar per se, but I have designed websites, and so have done some elementary graphic design. Is that all that's required? If so, I'll do one for the official "winner" of the challenge - if you're still looking to have an overall winner, Ritzy. Can someone just point me in the right direction to get instructions on size, how to upload it to 3FC, etc.?
Thanks -
Laurie
