I'd like, tentatively, to join in. Starting weight is 178 and by the end I'd like to be at goal - 145. Frightening thought, that, but I think I can be there by next summer.
Yeah, this is by no means a bikini wearing challenge for me either. It's just a "get as small as I can by summer" challenge. I definitely want to be under 200 by June 1st.
I've heard that using self tanner on stretch marks helps mask them too. Something worth trying maybe.
I'm in! I honestly can't remember when I last wore a bathing suit. Must have been back in my teenage days. I want to get married (BADLY) and I want us to do it on some awesome island where we can combine getting married to having a great honeymoon. Next summer would be a great date to begin a new and wonderful life as the wife to the greatest man ever, and to wear a freaking bathing suit on the white sands of some lovely beach.
My daughter's belly got huge during both of her pregnanies. She's always been tiny and never had to worry about a weight problem (thank goodness). She ended up with a lot of stretch marks - she calls them her "love marks." Her babies are 19 months apart.
Mine are 21 months apart. It's definitely tough on a woman's body to have babies that close together. Especially if you do it the stupid way (my way) and don't lose the baby weight in between! :/
I'm in!! Though this will be more of a "Maintaining until June" challenge because I'm going on my first cruise with my boyfriend in April! And I MUST be bathing suit ready!! Must must must!

ooo that must be nice to go on a cruise! ive always wanted to lol and welcome!
I just started here and I'm really excited to kick some challenge butt!
There's a large group of us going (fans of the Happy Herbivore website), so the chefs are going to be cooking strictly VEGAN food for us! A lot of the women there are all thin and strong (some are even personal trainers and yoga instructors) so I HAVE to look fly

what do you all think of this, i thought maybe i could average out all of our start weights on the 15th, which is the last day ill add people to the spread sheet, and then in the end see what our average is, does that sound good?
