I would LOVE to be 185 by New Year's Day, which is my half way mark. It's aggressive but here's hoping!

oneLess · 11-01-2011, 09:02 PM

I'm working on a Thanksgiving Challenge right now. I would like to be 340 by then but I would be happy with 345. So, let me see... for New years day, which is 9 weeks away, I want to be 329. That would be a loss of 27 pounds and 3 pounds a week. Lofty goal but I'm not going to be upset if I don't hit it.

I have my own thread going, but I"ll hop on board here as well. I'm at a huge stall so I'll take any and all support! New Years Eve is my birthday, so this would be a great present getting into Onederland!

Over the last 4 months I know that I can lose 5 lbs a month max. So I will shoot for something achievable. And if I do achieve it I will be in a whole new calorie decade!

I'm doing about a bazillion challenges already but they are WORKING! So I'm in! My normal WI day is Sunday but I'm using today's happy weight for my starting point.

I think I have 189 for a different challenge ending the same time, but I didn't expect to lose huge numbers like I did the last week so I'm going to go big. The worst that can happen is I don't make it but all progress is good!

sassyangies · 11-02-2011, 06:03 PM

Nothing wrong with one more challenge. I am in a Christmas one to loose 20 by Christmas day. So I'm going to see if I can loose 25 by New Years Day.

GOAL: 176!

I know this is optimistic, but it will be my lowest adult weight! And that would be a fabulous way to kick off the new year, right?

linJber · 11-02-2011, 09:37 PM

I'll jump in here, too. My goal is to maintain at 160 - 162 pounds indefinitely. My first month of maintenance went well. I need just as much support to maintain as I did to lose, so I'll be in here often. I'm only weighing on the first Wednesday of the month, so today is it for November.

November 2 - 161.2

I'll check in often, but probably won't post a weight until the first Wednesday in December. I'll do a final check in on 12-31. That's going to be a tough one because of the holidays, but that's the whole point, isn't it - to keep on plan even with the holidays.

Have a great month!

GOAL: 176!

NorthernExposure · 11-08-2011, 04:25 PM

Interesting, I think I'd like to try. The goal that's been eluding me FOREVER is 174, which is 100 lbs lost. I'm only 2 lbs away, but I've been 2-4 lbs away for a looooong time. I'm in a Thanksgiving Challenge on the CC board and this is my goal for that challenge.

Once I get there, I'd like to get out of the 170's before Christmas. Between Christmas and New Years I just hope to maintain, then back to losing mode after that

Nov. 5: 176.2
Nov. 11: 175.5
Nov. 18: 173.9!! Goal #1 met! I've officially lost 100 lbs!!
Thanksgiving Day: 174.2
Dec. 2: 172.8
Dec. 9: 172.0
Dec. 16: 171.0
Dec. 23: 169.1....I did it!! Adios, 170's!
Dec. 30: (On vacay...probably won't weigh in)
Jan 6th: hope to weigh the same or less as Dec. 23rd WI

kyalpn · 11-08-2011, 05:17 PM

I just met my Thanksgiving mini goal, so I am happy to join another challenge!

To start 2012 in the 190's

I will weigh in every Thursday, sinc that is what I have been doing for the Thanksgiving Day challenge.
