    I'm joining in! 5'10'' female here, currently at 248lbs (down 16 from 5 weeks ago when I started!). I think 25lbs is doable by Thanksgiving. I'm going on a trip to Seattle the week before, so this will hopefully help keep me on my goals while on vacation. :) Feel free to add me!

    Please add me! I'm new to My Fitness Pal and this challenge is just what I'm looking for. I'm a 56 year old woman with 30 pounds to lose, I'd like to see 20 gone by Thanksgiving.
  • Count me in! 5'7" female at 260s looking for a good challenge (especially around holiday season).

    I plan on weighing and posting on here on Mondays- Anyone else want to do this? Anyone want to make a spreadsheet for this so that everyone can post weight loss numbers in there? (Im too dense to figure it out myself)?

    I'm in. This is my first group! I need to lose at least 50 - 60 more overall. (Lost 7 so far and want to lose around 10 extra - planning for slight gain back/struggle range.)

    100 days is around 14 weeks, so I will aim for 25 pounds and secretly hope for more!

    My goals are 1) enough sleep 2) weights 3X week (I do 3 leg/ 3 arms/ 3 stomach or trunk) and since I am at the gym, I do cardio on those days. 4) walk 3 miles or swim on three other days 5) stay in calorie range

    Toughest is getting enough sleep. I am not a perfectionist though and do have zero exercise days. I have just started using the walking pal app -it's helpful!

    A few years ago my doc said if a person walks or runs 3 miles a day, weight will not be a problem. I doubt I will ever walk or run 3 miles everyday, but am aiming at 3x per week as a lifetime habit.

    Go for it!

    Been extra good since this started since I'm attending a beer release party tomorrow and will be drinking some extra calories. Planning on getting back in the gym on Sunday after a few months off.
