Default Official Halloween Goal Thread

I decided to start this thread because it was suggested at the end of the Labor Day thread.

Boo!
It is that time of year again. Summer is coming to an end and Fall is just around the corner. Temperatures are getting lower and the days are getting shorter and shorter. The kids have gone back to school. Very soon the leaves will be changing their colors. And, in my opinion, it is never too early to start decorating for Halloween! It is my favorite holiday, I think because it is close to my birthday and my parents always had a big costume party for my birthday.

Ok, my goal is to weigh 222 at my Halloween party....told you I was a big fan....and this would be a loss of 13 pounds. I am up for the challenge and I feel this is realistic for me. Add yours and let's reach our goals together.

I would like to reach 225 which is a bit over 8 pounds. And would earn me my first 15-pound reward, a massage at a day spa.

Even though I failed the Labor Day challenge, I'm going to join the Halloween Challenge. Let's see if I can scare away 10. I'll have to be careful what I'm goblin and witch food to eat.

Boo!

I'll try for 8, though at this point any loss would be a big win!

Okay, I'm in for losing 5 lbs. Taking it a little slower now that school is starting. That would put me at 157.

I'm in. 172 is the number I want to see! That is 12 lbs.
Only briefly tho! That has been where I've stopped the last 3 times. Not this time!

I'm in. I weighed 167 this morning. I plan to weigh 157 on 10/31. That's a bit of a stretch -- 10 lbs in 7 1/2 weeks -- but I'm going for it.

Count me in for losing the 150's - the Halloween target is 149.5, which is GOAL, and 4 pounds away.
