    Thank you bnbsmommy1 for starting this. This is my first 3FC challenge and I'm looking forward to it. I want to see if I have what it takes to meet my goal.
  • Ok, Well I'm in. I want to weigh 238.5 (that's 9 pounds from now).

    Reward? Being slimmer

    I'm not promising to exercise daily. I will try and do 30 minutes on the exercise bike twice a day. But that will depend on the rest of my life and whether I can fit it in comfortably. I will do 30 minutes at least 4 days out of the week, and more if possible.

    I determined my goal by checking my chart, and seeing how much I've lost in the last 2 weeks (4.5 pounds) and doubling that. So I think 9 pounds is a realistic goal. I did lose 10 pounds in the last month, but it seems that my weight loss has slowed somewhat.
