    Who's up for another challenge? Okay, so I don't typically do well on challenges, but I still like the game and need all the motivation I can get.

    I'm going to try for 8 pounds. I sure would like to look decent in shorts at our Memorial Day picnic.

    sounds good to me!
    i really feel like i do better with goals.
    so that's 9 weeks.
    i think i would like to try to exceed my high school weight goal of 165. i think i can go for 160. if i make it great, if i don't, well, i at least lost some weight!

    is there a specific challenge or do we each make our own? i need a good challenge but i usually do best with very specific rules/goals.

    gahundy, go for like 5-10 lbs.
    see where you are halfway then adjust if you need to.
    it's your body, and only you know what it can do

    Okay.......I'll do 10lbs this time. I made my 5lbs on the last challenge so this seems like a good step up.

    OK Ladies. I'm going to put my name in this challenge as well. I am really struggling badly and I need to get my head on straight. DBF and I have decided to get married at some point this year (not sure when yet - probably late fall??) so I want to look HOT!!!!!! Or at least as hot as a 51 year old grandmother of 5 can. My goal for this is to get back to 175. If I get there before this challenge ends, I will adjust at that time.

    3/24 - 181
    3/31 - 180
    4/14 - 180
    4/21 - 180 - I'm seeing a pattern here!!!
