I don't know what to set my goal at for labour day... I am thinking I'll try for 25 lbs. down.

I am getting there. I just tried on my size 50 jeans and was even able to sit down in them. They are still to tight to wear in comfort but I think by Labor day I will be in them. I am so happy. What a pick me up for the day. I started out in size 58.

Thanks it sure feels great.

I'm in too.

I'd like to be 275 by Labor Day. At that point I will have lost 1/2 the total weight I want to lose and would be a great thing to celebrate on the holiday.

Thanks!

215, I think this has been my goal for every challenge for the last 2 years.

This time, I'm SO going to do it. If I do it... I'm going to change my signature to include one of those happy fluffy dancing guys!

My labor day goal is to loose 20 lbs so I will weigh 315 which is a weight I havent seen in several years. It may be a stretch but I think I can do it.

Holy Smokes!

I'm already down 9 lbs. since restarting on June 26th (i think) so I should blow my goal out of the water!

YAY! Buh-bye fat and pudge.. HELLO - Bikini!

Every time we have a challenge, I say 270. Why break w/tradition?

Ivanna B. Skinny · 07-10-2004, 08:10 PM

SAPF, you can do it this time!! I know you can!! I hope everyone else is doing great too!! Keep it up!

Ivanna B. Skinny · 07-15-2004, 09:23 PM

Well, I thought we all needed a reminder about oue Labor Day challenge. All is well here in my neck of the woods. Hows everyone else dooing??

Br00klyn · 07-16-2004, 01:17 AM

I'm doing pretty good I think.... I'll be going to the gym tomorrow and weighing in.. So, here's hoping for a good loss

Everyone is doing great and we've still got plenty of time! We ALL can do this this time!

tolose85 · 07-16-2004, 09:00 AM

I am doing pretty darn good.. I don't even feel like I'm tryin!!

Anyway, My goal was to drop 20 lbs by then- when I posted I was at 167 lbs. Officially at this date I am at 162 according to signature today but I peeked at the scale yesterday and it read 159.. I don't want to jinx myself by changing my signature too early so I'll wait until Sunday. I'm well on my way with an official 5 lbs and "unofficial" until Sunday 8lb loss. I am SO proud of everyone.. We are the biggest bunch of losers around!! Keep up the great work and SAPF & Apryl... I KNOW you'll meet your goals...

Gretchen, that's pretty freaking exciting! 8 pounds?! That's almost obscene, really, given that this isn't exactly your first week in..... Are you just dropping entire parts of your body at this point or what?

Ok, I'm going to jump on this Labour Day challenge bandwagon........hmmm.......to what milestone will I commit?

Ok, here it is: By Labour Day (Canadian AND American,) September 6, I will be at 222 pounds, with a total lost of 62 pounds. Truly, I'm hoping for more, but I think this is a reasonable goal -- not too easy, but completely achievable.
