Default 4th of July weight loss challenge?

I know last year when I was here this board kept the motivation high by posting a bunch of different challenges.

Well, I didn't see a 4th of July challenge. As of this comming Sunday there are only 7 more weeks till the 4th of July (this year seems to be zooming by) and I was wondering if anyone wants to take part in a 4th of July challenge with me? If so, please remember to keep your goals healthy!

EVERYONE WELCOME!!

SW 290/GW 275
-15 lbs.

May 23rd: 284.2*
May 30th: 283.8
June 6th: 283.3
June 13th:284.6
June 20th: 284.0
June 27th: 286.7...hmmm wrong way completely
July 4th: 283.8

Edit: yay! I love a good challenge. Anyone not sure about how challenges work, just post your current weight, goal weight, or just the weight goal you have in mind and weigh in weekly!

Edit:
Well, I didn't make goal but at least its less than when I started!!

Count me in! I weigh in every day, so I'll just have to remember to post my Sunday weight in this thread. My goal would just be "under 200". I actually had hoped to hit that by my birthday (the 28th of June) but if the next 10 pounds come off as slow as the last 10, that won't happen.

As long as I weigh less then than I do now, its a success

I wanna play too! 7 weeks, so I guess... I'd like to try for 15 lbs, that's 2 lbs a week with an extra thrown in for good measure!

GW: 243

May 23rd: 258.2
May 30th: 257.2
June 6th: 254.8
June 13th: 255.6
June 20th: 254.2
June 27th: 250.8
July 4th: 247.8

Total loss: 10.4 close (sorta haha) but I'm not complaining. After that long stall, I'm just happy to be moving again!

Yay! I'm going home to Florida to visit family mid-July and I am wanting to lose as much as possible (though still healthy) by then.

SW: 172.6
GW: 158

That's 2 per week plus the extra .6 thrown in. I get out of work for the summer after June 8 and will be concentrating mostly on weight loss for a little while, so it is totally doable for me.

May 23- 172 (-.6)
May 30- 168.4 (-3.6 / 4.2)
June 6- 169.2 (+0.8 / -2.8) grrr!
June 13- 169.6 (+0.4 / -2.4) ummm?
June 20-166.8 (-2.8 / -5.2)
June 27-
July 4-
