MellyWag · 07-07-2011, 12:40 AM

Hello everybody

I always get a bit more motivation if I'm having to keep other people informed of my weight progress on a weekly baisis ( I must be accountable lol)
Anyways I have a friends wedding on October 22nd this year and would love to look a little (or a lot!) better in this awesome leapard print dress that I have boughten!

So heres my plan, everyone upload a picture of youselves in that outfit/piece of clothing you would like to fit you a bit better, or get to small for! and share it with us every saturday!

I would love to see other peoples progress and the extra support.
So here is the dress....... see you next saturday!

I don't have a particular piece of clothing I'm trying for, but I'll join you. October 22nd is my 40th birthday! I'm on my way down -- I started at 273 and am now right about 211ish.

That's awesome, thanks for joining

What a good birthday present to yourself. What goal will you go for then?

I do not have any clothing that I am hoping to be able to wear. Oct. 22 is the day of a 10 miler I plan on jogging. I am more likely to finish within the course time limits if I am a healthier weight. I would love to be below 155 by then.

I guess I just picked a good date then lol, good luck with your goals ladies

Hi there!

I would love to join in your challenge! I will have to look for a piece of clothing for a pic....I will have to work out where I hope to be mid October and find the corresponding size.

MellyWag, we are about the same weight right now (the scale I have been using said 221.6 this am, but DH just bought a new scale, that has body fat, etc.., so I will switch to that one on Monday, when I will be out of vacation mode...the new scale is not as forgiving, it said 224).

I will be participating in my first 5k October 16th, and really don't want to be dead last, so will be working hard to get in good enough shape to cross that finish line!!

I'm in! My birthday is on the 21st, I'd love to be in the 190's by then. I'm a slow loser

GW for October 22 - 155

July 7 - 181.8

So, I weighed in on our new scale today...ouch...it adds almost 4 lbs more than the other scale, oh well, what can I do?

CW on July 9 = 226
Mini Goal W for Oct 22 = 191

I found an old dress that fit me some years ago, I can barely squeeze into it now....it looks so bunchy cause I can't pull it down properly. I will use this as my mini goal dress!

(i have not added the pics as I am not sure how!! Will have to do that when I figure it out)

leacj · 07-09-2011, 12:04 PM

ok....figured out how to add the pictures

MellyWag · 07-09-2011, 12:45 PM

That's a lovely dress

Good luck

I have to find a piece of clothing but I am in. I just recently fit into some of my old jeans where they didn't fit like spandex anymore. LOL. Was a great feeling so why not try this too.
