  • OK - so I decided I am at least going to do this. I have a goal of 10-15 lbs for labor day. I will add a ticker for this. I am going to do a weigh in for myself on Monday morning to start for me but you guys feel free to start whenever you want!! I don't go to COD so I will weigh every sunday or monday to see how I did.

    I had a rude wake-up call at the horse show over this past weekend and its time to get the big butt in gear!!!!!

    Who's in with me???
  • Count me in. I've got just one more week before my center closes, but my friend and I are going to weigh each other at work. I'd love to lose 10 lbs. by Labor Day, at least.
  • I'm in, I haven't done a challenge before but accountability is always a good thing.
  • Me too.. I've put on about 10 lbs since Christmas and even though I'm maintaining where I am, I want to get back below 190 again...

    Now If I can just remember how to do the ticker thingy again...
  • I am going for 10 lbs, which is a little more than 1.5 lbs a week over this 6 wk period.

    I WI on Wednesdays, so this morning's starting weight is 205.4 lbs

    July 16: 205.4 [Starting weight for Challenge]
    July 23: 202.4 [-3.0 lbs (1.46%)]
    July 30:198.8 [-3.6 lbs (1.78%)]
    Aug 6: 198.2 [0.6 lbs (0.30%)]

    Aug 27:

    Total Lost to date: -7.2 lbs [3.51%]
  • ok, I am in for 12 lbs. That is about 2 lbs per week, but I have been such a fatty that I should lose the first 5 easily. I will add a ticker
  • I think I can manage another 10 pounds. I lost 10.8 in the past 5 weeks. I gained a couple pounds back after a bad week, but then lost 3lbs since last Wednesday. If I stay focused, I'm sure I can do it.

    I think I'll set my challenge for 10-15.
  • Well, here we go - my challenge starts tomorrow morning. I will weigh myself and see where my starting point is. I pretty much know anyway but I want to get an accurate starting #. My goal is between 10-15 lbs so approx 12 would be nice.

    Good Luck to everyone!!!
  • Okay I'm starting with yesterdays weight... which makes me sad b/c I lost 5 from the previous week. But anywho, I will still try.
    7/21 - 413.9
  • Count me in for this challenge. I've been stuck at the same weight for the longest time. I believe it's time for me to get serious again. I'll post my weight tomorrow and then just update every week.

    I'm going to set a weekly goal and see how many of these I can make also... I already missed my first goal!!! ARGHHHHH!!!
  • Okay, I am going to take the labor day challenge! For the next few weeks I know that my weight is going to go up and down, so my goal is to be at 135 by labor day. I would love it if I was lower, but my goal for the entire summer was to keep my weight around 135.
