Jen inspired me with her "No Sweets Challenge." (One of the many ways in which she has inspired me...) What about starting a "Christmas Challenge," too? I've seen lots of people wanting to get to a certain weight by Christmas when they'll see their family. What about setting that goal weight for Christmas or sometime in December and reporting in here to see how we're all doing and encourage each other? Does that sound like a plan?

My goal is to weigh 175 by Dec. 20. Currently, I'm at 185.5, so I've got 10.5 pounds to lose in a little over six weeks -- that's my mini-goal.

Anyone else have a Christmas goal? Post them, and let's start losing and encouraging each other!!

CC Goal: 175

I'm in! My mini-goal for Christmas is to weigh 180 by Dec. 20th (we fly out to SD to see my family that very day). That means a 13-lb. loss from now until then! I'm feeling GREAT about this week's weigh-in, what with the "no sweets" and all....it's gonna be a good one.
Thanks for starting this--great idea!

My christmas challenge is to lose another 5-7 lbs.

Great idea Jina!

Maybe a Christmas challenge will get me through Thanksgiving. I would like to be 80 kilos by Christmas. That's 176 and I'm at 186 now, so ten pounds. It's a little faster than I have been losing, so it will really be a challenge.

Good luck ladies!

OK, I would like to see 160 on my scale by December 25. That should allow for a bit of flexibility in eating during the holidays.

I want to be 150 by Christmas. I weighed in at 159.4 today so thats a little less then 10 lbs.

By the time I hop on the plane I would love to see 180 by christmas day.... 178!

My CHristmas goal is to be 150 lbs or LESS, I am now 172.....I work out and diet HARD so I think I can do it....

Well, I have no progress to report this week on my Christmas Challenge. I didn't lose anything this week. Hopefully, I'll have a nice loss to post next week. How's everyone else doing?

Take care,

I would love, love, love to be at 155 by Christmas.
These last 15 or so pounds are killing me, they just don't want to part with my body, they have gotten very comfortable where they have lived for the past couple of years. LOL

I think starting to make shorter term goals for me is good right now!

Seeing as how I'm just starting out, I'm pretty confident I can get 10 pounds off by Christmas eve morning!

With this week's loss, I have just 7 more lbs. to my Christmas goal! With over a month 'till then, I am confident that it will happen!
How's everyone else doing?

Yay, I am 165.6 today
15.6 lbs left for my Christmas Goal.....
Its been a GREAT week!
