I'm definitely in. How do you propose we keep ourselves accountable in this thread?

How about posting each week's weigh in?

beccalamarche

Yeah, I think a weekly weigh in would be good, including your weight from the previous and current week. And maybe the biggest struggle you had during the past week and then either something that went well or a piece of advice for everyone else? And/or maybe even a mini goal for ourselves each week, such as "drink 8 glasses of water" or "exercise 4 days this week". Thoughts?

Should we weigh in every week or so on a certain day? Or monthly? This is my first go around with the challenges.

10lbs a month wow it takes most people 2 months to lose 10lbs
Good luck everyone too harsh for me

I am in. I also have a child's wedding in September. Have been diligent since Jan but this would be a great group to keep me going. Also a sweet lover and emotional eater. Favorite quote right now. " there is no food that taste as good as feeling thin feels "

It's more practical for those at a higher weight. It isn't for everyone!

I'm in for a challenge but with a more practical goal for myself. I hope I can still join.

This is a dream challenge. Been stuck at 168ish for a year. I'm sure I could lose 55lbs but it will be hard! I'm starting late so 10lbs a month!

Let's try weighing in once a week! Since we started on a Friday, how about every Friday we post our weight from the week before and the current week so we can easily track our own and each other's progress. I think it'd also be good to include the biggest struggle you had during the past week and then either something that went well or a piece of advice for everyone else? And/or maybe even a mini goal for ourselves each week. Can we all commit to something like that each week?

NewOR2015

Okay, I'll check back in on Friday, March 25th.

Be_Lively

Okay cool.

By this Friday, I would like to weigh in 3 lb less than current weight. That way, I would have to lose 2 more lb by March 31 to reach March's 5 lb goal.

I would need to be at a 2,000 calorie deficit each day to make this week's goal, so I am not sure if that is practical. I better exercise every day to make it.
