Carb Counters - Labor Day Challenge

Getting myself into a new challenge right away. I'll need the 2 months to get the 8 pounds off I want.

Labor day is September 6..... my goal for then is 17.5 pounds - 140pounds

I started walking with DH this weekend I am going to shoot for 3 to 5 days a week depending on work and the heat.

I'm in. I going with a very conservative 10lbs. So far I haven't come through on even one challenge. Time to turn it around!

I'm in again and no I haven't made any of my goals yet.
I had company for 10 days in June and gained 4 pounds, last weigh in I had lost one of those so that's where I am starting. And I only weigh about once a month since my weight loss has stalled to an incredibly snail like pace, but the clothes are fitting looser!

Ok, I know this is going to sound drastic, but I am shooting for an even 200lbs by Labor Day. Thats a 44lb loss. I doubt that I will make that (realistically) BUT I want to set my goals high so that I know I have to work my @$$ off to make it work! With a goal like that, there are NO days that I can slack off! Anyone else think I am nutz? Don't worry, I am not going to be seriously disappointed or anything if it doesn't happen. :lol:

I changed my mind. I think a high goal is good motivation, but I also think 45lbs in 2 months is probably unattainble no matter where you stand. I am still going high, but trying for 215, my pre-pregnacy weight. I can do 30lbs!

Hey there!

Count me in for 20. 10 By the Brian Adams concert in August and another 10 by Labor day. I have been losing about 2.5 a week, so I figure, this should be obtainable? More obtainable than Brian Adams deciding to make me his love slave at the concert, right? LOL!

Hey, I did my siggy wrong. Sorry, it should read
SW - 280
CW - 157
GW - 190

180 . . . Was that wishful thinking?

Down 3 more!!!

LaDean here.... i challenge to lose 17 lbs... 210/193... then will have reached my goal and 7 under. i am a tops member... LaDean :)

Ok, I made the very first goal I ever set and then pooped out on all the previous ones. I'm going to go for a very modest 8 lbs. My sister took the scale with her when she moved out so I can only weigh in once a week, which I think is good for me. I didn't weigh yesterday but I'll start with my weight from last week.

Can I revise my goal? I was shooting for 240. I made that as of today! Im so happy! My new labor day goal is 235. I hope this weight loss never stops! Im dreading the plataus I hear about.

Are we doing a Halloween Challenge?

I stayed the same, 178 for Labor Day. So my goal for Halloween is 165. I thought I would make it more of a challenge instead of less.
