So I was thinking over this weekend about going forth with my Valentines Day Challenge....I don't give much woop to do about that day but I am going to use it as my "challenge"

Its actually not as far away as we think

My goal by Valentines Day is to be in Onederland!!!!!!!!! Even if its stinking 199



Whose In?

:val1 :

I'd be up for some a St. Valentine's Day challenge.

I'll go for 285 by 15 Feb. I have no idea what my rate of weight loss is over time, so I'll adjust my goal if it's not challenging enough.

11/28/10: 305 - starting weight!
12/05/10: 302.2
12/12/10: 299.8

02/14/11: 285 - GOAL

Ok let's weigh on a minimum of once a week ok?

Check in and update us by every weekend....Mark your calendars ok?

This should be fun. This is the first time I have headed a challenge so inform me if I do anything wrong or can add to what I'm doing ok?

I'm game! My personal goal is going to reach 232lbs by then. I am going to do my "official" weigh-ins for this challenge on Sundays to keep me accountable over the weekend.

I'll edit this post with my weights.

11/28/10: 249.4lbs (- 0lbs) ~ And so it begins!
12/05/10: 250.6lbs (+ 1.2lbs) ~ Pre-TOM bloating, booo!

I'm in! I like the challenge of reporting in every week! All my others end at Xmas or end of year, so it'll be good to have a challenge that overlaps them, so I don't get off track...
I'm setting my goal at 216lb -- that's my 25% loss mini-goal!

11/26/10: 242lbs (26lbs to go!)
12/03/10: 240 (24lb to go!)
12/11/10: 237.5 (21.5lb to go!)
12/18/10: 241 (25lb to go! Ack!)
12/25/10: 239 (23lb to go!)
01/01/11: 240
01/08/11: 238 (22lb to go.)
01/15/11: 237 (21lb to go.)
01/22/11: 233! (17lb to go!) Not gonna make the 216lb goal, but I realized that wasn't gonna happen back in December!! My new VDay goal is 225.
01/29/11: 230
02/05/11: 232
02/12/11: 228.5
02/15/11: 228lb Total loss of 14lb.

I'm up for it, but I dont want to start till the first of the year. If I can hit my mini goal by January first I can have a realistic goal for Valentines Day- which is my 13year Wedding Anniversary! Yay!

I'd like to join as well My goal is to be 240 by Valentine's Day!

02/14/11: goal 189

Great idea, I really appreciate having something to project through to, over Christmas and my January trip. It could be tempting otherwise to think O Christmas, I've made it - and lose momentum.

OK, I aimed for 25 by the 25th for Christmas, and hit that last week with 4 weeks to spare.
I'm going to aim for another 25 by the 14th, which will be a bit more of an ask, it's a shorter timescale; but nothing ventured, nothing gained.

25lbs off it would take me to 141.9..... wow, only 5.9lbs off normal!
