POUNDS TO LOSE = 7 LBS
GOAL WEIGHT = 136.5

Hi all,
Yes, to the challenge! I really need the motivation, and am shooting for 5 lbs. by St. Patty's, so this will keep me going after that.

I started to get serious about losing in January. About 4 years ago I came down with very achey joints and muscles, fatique, and tingly hands and feet. It was pretty severe for about 6 months, and I virtually stopped exercising. Before this happened, I had been very active and exercised pretty intensely. I did resume exercise eventually, but it is much lighter, mostly walking. I was tested for MS, had blood work for numerous things, but I never got any diagnosis. I am MUCH better now, but in the last 2 years I have gained 20 lbs, which feels like a lot on my frame. It's still frustrating to me that I can't do all the things I used to, but I just want to be as healthy as possible, lose the extra weight, and get my fitness up. Sorry so long, just wanted to introduce myself a little since I'm fairly new here... even though I've been posting away!

This challenge will help motivate me to meet those goal. Thanks!!

Nicker
Pounds to lose 9.5
Goal Weight for challenge 190

I forgot to come back and post my starting weight: 128.4. Ew. I don't know how that happened. But whatever. So my goal by Easter is 121.4. 7 lbs. Tomorrow is actually weigh in for me so hopefully it'll have gone down a little.

Well I guess I should post in the proper format too...

POUNDS TO LOSE = 7 lbs
GOAL WEIGHT = 121.4 lbs

pounds to lose = 7
easter goal weight = 140

ultimate goal weight= 130

Well I posted my goal earlier but do not know what formay I used so here it is

POUNDS TO LOSE =4
GOAL WEIGHT = 135 (MY FIRST GOAL BEFORE i REVALUATE)

POUNDS TO LOSE = 6 lbs
GOAL WEIGHT = 136 lbs

The scale is still not cooperating this morning. Will be extra good today!!

pounds to lose = 15lbs

goal weight by april 8 = 197 :carrot:

Well I joined the 40 days and 40 nights challenge so hopefully it will help me make my goal and maybe surpase it. I do not want to up how much I am aiming to lose I just want to hit my first goal the reevaluate from there but I do know I will want to lose more.

I wanna join in on this challenge too. I'd like to lose 12lbs by Easter and I've been losing at a rate of between 2-2.5lbs per week so it is sort of realistic and sort of far-off at the same time!

We can do it!!!:carrot:

Scale still hasn't moved...BUT I've been logging everything so I know it will. I think I need the accountability of a challenge.:drill:

I would love to join in...I'm new here but my weight loss journey has been loooonnnggg! I would love to lose 10 by Easter:

Pounds to lose = 10
Easter goal = 167

I am thinking a St. Paddy's Challenge. Since St. Paddy's is half way between now and Easter. I want to lose half of my Easter Challenge weight by then. Baby steps.

Yay, down 1 lb! C'mon scale!
