  • Marina, we must have been creating them at the same time. I checked to see if there was one, when I saw there wasn't I created mine. When I posted the thread and the list refreshed, there was yours. No big deal, as long as there is one.

    I've done really well the last couple of days but I'm not going to be able to do my aerobics class all week. UGH! Trying to do some walking but this week's schedule is really tight!
    Finally loosing the bloat! Now, to get to some "real" weight loss.

  • Welcome countrymama, love your avatar!

    Jb1975, great minds think alike!

    izzyboomama, welcome both to this thread and to 3fc, this is a great community, hope you like it as much as i do!

    MumofMany, Congratulations on the new baby and also on getting back on track so fast. Wow! How do you do it? I have no children and truly admire mums! Mums are so brave for so many reasons! Now, just weigh on your weigh-in day and then post your weigh here. This is a laid-back thread so there will be no lists or anything like that, just weight and post. That's how unorganized i am. The focus here is on keeping ouselves accountable and supporting each other.

    Hey EnglishMc Teach! Welcome! I see you have a cool Xmas challenge ticker... i'm thinking of getting one too!
  • I'm starting to get Holiday gifts. Sooooo early, i know, but they keep coming and they are mostly food, all from patients. Today i'm leaving a lot of snacky sugary food at my office kitchen. Hope they get eaten. Lots of people working here. If i have all that stuff at home, i'll eat it...
  • I am in, starting weight is 144 and I am looking to lose 10lbs by New Year...
  • Quote: Reesa Wisteria Welcome! I don't believe I've seen you on any other threads yet, so it's nice to meet you!
    Yeah, I'm new to the forums. I wanted some support that isn't just family.
  • I'm going to join if that's alright!

    SW for challenge: 313.3 lbs
    GW for Christmas: 290 lbs

    I think that's a pretty safe goal. Yes? Best of luck everyone! Stay on track and work hard.
  • It is been a roller coaster week for me. Up a bit since the start Boo!

    SW 144
    GW 134
    CW 144.8
  • I'm always afraid of setting goals because I like to sabotage myself.. Need to get out of that groove. I think most of all I'd like to commit to joining our rec center and being faithful with working out at least 4 days a week.

    Marina Brasil I have a question for ya.. Are you from Brazil or you used to live there? Just asking because I grew up in Brazil and am always looking for a fellow Brazilian. I mean, I'm american but grew up there. Anyway, just wondering! Have a great day!
  • Blondie, I'm so glad to read your goal cause mine is tied to weight loss but is not a weight loss challenge.

    I would like to challenge myself to NO p.m. snacking six nights per week. If I can achieve this, I should lose weight.

    Thanks for the x-mas challenge Marina!
  • Hihi
