I'm probably not going to come and post every week (also, I weigh-in on Mondays and I don't like to have too many weigh in days :dizzy:), but I'll bookmark this thread and pop back in at Thanksgiving to share my weight. I would like to be 230 by Thanksgiving! I feel like that is entirely doable if I stick to my plan :)

I would also love to jump in here. I want to lose around 10 lbs a month, so I would like to be 50 lbs lighter by then. So I would like to be at 212 by Thanksgiving. I know it is a heafty goal but I think that I can get there.

Starting weight 262.6

End goal weight 212
loss to date: -4.6

Good morning all - I've been stuck at 182 all week - maybe tomorrow my official weigh-in will be better. There's a reason I only count Wednesday - weighing every day makes me nutty!

I've already been to the gym and have laundry going - if I could just get in a session at the tanning salon, I guess I could audition to be on "Jersey Shore." LOL. I tan without trying - sometimes that's worse than not getting any color at all!

Also got the potted tomatoes and peppers watered. Now to clean the kitchen . . . Such an exciting life! hope everyone has a great day.

I am determined to be to goal by next June, so a few challenges along the way are probably a good idea. I'm totally in. I didn't WI this last Thursday though since I was still on vacation. I will post Thursdays from now on though.I would love to hit 140 by Thanksgiving, but I will consider anything between 140 and 160 to be success (1-2 pounds per week).

Edit on August 25: We're about 1/3 of the way though this thing and I only have 6 pounds to go until I reach the high end of my goal weight range. I have decided to lower the high end to 155!

GOAL WEIGHT: <240

Since my WI day is Wednesday, I just updated my original post. I'm -2 for the week. Good luck to all of you who are using Thursday for this challenge. I'll look tomorrow for the results.

Good time for a challenge, Angie - looks like you have lots of challengers in here. I'm hoping this really keeps me on track because I'd LOVE to be at my goal by Thanksgiving.

I am down this week too.

July 14 178.4

congrats Lin and envelope!!!!

I don't WI until Sunday but it's exciting to see people starting to make progress.

Well I just scored a 3.4 lb loss for last week! So excited. I also graduated to another decade! I am officially in the 250s.

I am down 6 for this week, though quite a bit of that is almost certainly water since I just came off of vacation for a week, during which I was totally off plan and gained 10.6 pounds.

Hello All,
 

I have never joined in a challenge, but I would like to try.

I think 2 lbs a week MAX is healthy. that would be 38 lbs. However, since you are at a smaller weight Id say 1-1.5 lbs a week. so 19-28.5, at that calculation 25 is entirely possible! On the 4th of july challenege I aimed super high knowing that if I made it at least halfway I'd be happy and guess what? I made it a little over halfway! I am 7 lbs away from my 4th of july goal. and 17 from my labor day goal. Will I make it? Who knows. Is it entirely posible? Sure!
