25 LBS By Christmas! looking to make a group challenge!

couldntyoutell

Hi! I need to lose 20-25 lbs by christmas and I have found that I lose weight a lot more when I being held accountable by weekly weigh ins with other peoplee! I thought making a forum on here wouto help me find people who respond similarly could help us to make a group to keep us all on track, make good progress together and support each other! Share tips and suggestions for personal weight loss problems and hold us accountable with weekly weigh ins! Anyone interested?

savjas65

I am in too. Have dabbled with losing and I really need to get serious so count me in.

sasparilla69

I would love to join. I don't know about 25, but I would sure be happy with 15.

I think I need to try this too. I want to lose 25 by Christmas too (actually 25 would be only goal 1 but haven't lost an ounce in over a year though trying, so we'll see how my joining the Y and working out for 2 hours a day helps! Started 2 weeks ago).

I would love to join you! I could definitely stand to lose 25 lbs by Christmas!!

rball16

I think there are a couple of these groups/threads going. You may want to use the Search function for "Christmas" and consider joining forces with the other folks that have a similar goal. 25 by Christmas is a little aggressive though has please stay healthy!

Good luck

I would love to join, too. I have a massive amount of weight to loose. To prevent being overwhelmed, I set myself 25 lb. loss targets as mini goals in my battle. Right now, I am half a pound from my second target--that is a total of 50 lbs lost. Yeah! Should be there in next day or two. Therefore, my next goal (another 25 lbs) would coincide with your time frame as well. What a nice Christmas Gift to Myself ! Count me in!

couldntyoutell

Yay!! So many people want to join, I'm so glad!! Weigh in wednesday/friday or monday everyone!?

I like Monday weigh-ins. I want to lose 15 lbs by Christmas.

sammierader

I'd love to join. I'm the same way, if I have to track, be honest and have someone see what I'm doing or not doing and call me out when I eat a king sized reeses I do better. I had a baby recently and I'm trying to lose the weight plus what extra I had before so I have a 1st goal of 20-25lbs by Christmas and then I'll continue my journey.

Monday weigh ins work for me, may be if I know I'll have to weigh in monday it'll help me not pig out during the weekend while my husbands home.

andabe

I'm in! My weight loss has fallen by the side since my last group all quit losing weight. Monday works for me too.

kittykel

Hi all. I'm new to the boards but I need some accountability too so count me in to aim for 12lbs by Christmas! Monday weight ins will be fine, I just need to Go to Argos for some scales.

At a guess I'm about 14.5 stone and would like to get down around 12 (I'm 5'8'' with a large frame/build) I'd like to lose weight to be healthier and I want to be faster at running which I took up this summer.

Good luck all!

zazazik

wow, just what I need. I'm in !

fitnessmalak

This would be lovely, I am definitely in

jdt242

Please add me to the group. I would like to lose circa 18lbs. This will take me to my ultimate goal weight. With 9 weeks to go and at 2lbs a week, I don't see why it can't be done.

BobJ19956

I would also like to join this challenge. Want to be at 100 lbs by Christmas - 22 lbs away!

cumberscratch

Me too!

couldntyoutell

It looks like Monday weigh in it is!! I will make a new forum with an identical title but #1 @ the end tomorrow morning and it will be up to those who want to be involved to respond to it with their weights and if you guys would like, your breakfast!! good luck everyone and thanks for joijing this little support system!!/competition!!

zazazik

OK - 150 lbs this morning - 125 lbs at Christmas - Let's do this !!!

marlovs78

Let's not and say we did.

sansaeverdeen

wait, there are only 9 weeks until xmas. Unless you are over 250 lbs, losing 2.8 lbs a week is very aggressive.

andabe

Hi all. I don't know if I'm being really stupid but I haven't seen the new group created???? I only started using my fitness pal properly yesterday! Although I've been a member for a couple of years . My apologies if I'm stepping on toes but I'm happy to set the group up, as I really do need the discipline of weekly weigh ins.

If I don't hear otherwise, I'll set it up in half an hour???

LeonCX

@andabe Why not read above and you will see that the OP has her plans made already.
