Team Start Weight- 6345 lbs!!!
Team Loss-
Team Finish Weight-
Please weigh in either monthly or weekly. I will be doing monthly. when you do your last weigh in on New Years morning, please take the time to add all your weigh ins together for me, haha! I then will add everyone's losses together and subtract it from the Team Start Weight.
Good luck to everyone!  I wish you all success. I know it's ambitious, but I believe we can do this!

My goal was to lose 50 by the end of the year but I was counting back to June! I wish I could lose 50 from now until then but thats 3 months. Too fast for me...too scared!!! But I will definitely join the efforts to lose the rest of my 25 by Dec. 31st.

Holy cow, that's just over 3lbs/week for the next 16 weeks. I'm not sure that'd be healthy for me...

Count me in! I'm averaging 4-5 Lbs a week since I went Raw so I think it's definitely doable.

I'm in! I just started a week ago. My first weigh in is tomorrow. I don't know if 3lbs consistently per week is realistic, but hey it's worth a shot! I'll take whatever I can get and 50 would be fabulous!! Thanks for starting this!

Today was my first weigh in since starting this new healthy lifestyle and I've lost 4 pounds this week.
I must be honest though...at 24 years old and starting at almost 286 pounds, I was expecting more for my first week. I know, I know it's only water when people lose 8 pounds in their first week, but hey I'm sure I have water in here to lose too!  I was paranoid as I stepped on the scale this morning thinking I had done all this hard work all week and the scale would show nothing. I guess I enjoy playing mind games with myself  NOT.
Then reality checked back in (thank you very much) and I am happy with 4 pounds. Thats a great start!
So 46 more to go for me by New Years! C'mon everyone, we can do this!
