Well, I was trying to think of a day to reach my goal by and I decided that the official first day of summer would work. My birthday is May 31st (I would love to reach my goal by then) but June 21st seems like it will give me some "wiggle room". I will enter my weight every 21st of the month until June 21st. Never worn a bikini in public and I want this to be the first year that I feel comfortable enough to do so. Please join me!
Monthly Goal: Lose 5 pounds

I'm definitely in! I'm getting down to those last few pounds and so it's getting harder to lose. I'm hoping to lose 1 lb a week/4lbs a month.

I'm in another challenge with a very similar goal date, however I just got back from vacation and added a few pounds so I'm behind schedule on that one. Plus I like the idea of weighing in once a month so I'm in.

AWESOME!!!!!! I'm excited, ladies. I was crossing my fingers for at least one person to join me, but this is better than I could have imagined. LET'S DO THIS! I'm putting my shoes on right now and getting ready to walk.
I am definitely in! I love the summer time, and this challenge is great because the summer solstice falls 6 days before my birthday, and I would love to be at one of my goals by then!

I'm in !! I didn't finish my last challenge last October, But i'm finally back on track and definitely need another challenge to keep up motivation.
I have many goal's i'd like to reach by June 21st(even July1st), but the first and foremost goal is the OK from my surgeon for my breast reduction.
Goal is to lose up to 10 lbs a month(but i'll still be happy even if i lose 7-8 a month, and of course i will have to remind myself that i will lose more some months and less other months.
SW- 225
GW- 180 or less(will prefer less but i will still be happy for 180 lol)
I like the once-a-month weigh in. I'd love to be comfortable wearing shorts this summer!
Edit: Adjusted my goals after a truly kick-*** month!
Starting weight: 261
Goal weight: 215
February 21st: 256/ 255.8 (-5.2lbs)

Total loss for Summer Solstice Challenge: 46.2 lbs!!!!
Hello PUPMOM5, MizMelis, muddpies, and Pink_Hurricane!! Feel free to check in throughout the month to say hello or ask for some motivation. Sometimes we all need a little extra push. I know I could go for one right now! I haven't worked out in two days, and I over indulged over the weekend! I need to get back to work.
I am so excited to meet this challenge! We are probably going to the beach in July, and I will be able to wear a swimsuit without a skirt if I reach my challenge goal
*sigh* I'm *dying* to start going to the gym again. Seriously, I had this big conversation with a couple of my friends yesterday and one of them goes to the gym that i want to join when i move to the city(hopefully moving by May). I'm starting to get bored doing this just at home.
