Hey all! I have never created a challenge before so bear with me!
I wanted to do a personal challenge but would love others to join and we can keep each other on task!
I started getting serious about my weight loss at the end of September 2015 and I weighed 380 lbs. It has been a little under 5 months (144 days) and today I weighed in at 308.4 lbs! My goal for this challenge is to get under 300lbs by my 25th birthday, March 24th. Feel free to adjust dates to suite you
I will be recording weights on Thursdays since that is what my bday falls on this year

I too used to be in the 300's and was ecstatic to get to the 200's. Now I'd like to ditch those too and get to the 100's. Been struggling for a couple years to get there. Weighed in at 220.9 today. Losing much more slowly now though so I'm not going to set a huge goal. I think I'll try for 215 for that timeframe - sounds reasonable for me and I'm not in any hurry. (I mean of course I'd like it all gone tomorrow but I plan on living the rest of my life this way so...)0

Great job getting as far as you have!! I cannot wait for the day the scale tells me I'm out of the 300s! I promise myself I wont go back lol after getting out of the 300s my goal is 280 because that is what I weighed my freshman year of college and then other mini goals along the way to help me stay on track ultimately I think I would be fine at 200 but once I'm there I probably wont stop lol it seems like such a long way to go but it's worth the effort!! We can do this!!! 0 -

I started in January at 367. I check in every Monday. At my last check in I was 346. My 30th bday is Nov 5 and my personal goal is like yours to be below 300 by then. I'm certainly ahead of that pace but I've been losing fast and expect it to slow down here pretty soon0
