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

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

    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?

    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.

    Wow you guys may be exactly what I need to get me to my first major goal. I have been at this for almost a year now and I have plateaued big time. I have picked back up with charting every bite of food again so that has helped and I'm down 4 pounds this week finally.... A step in the right direction again.

    Really...really want to be down 13 pounds by the end of April........ :s

    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?

    I'm going to post my weekly weigh in on Monday or Tuesday!

    Biggest struggle: late night snacking!
    Goal: drink 64oz water this week each day

    I would love to do this but I'm really intimidated by the amount of weight to lose each week. It kind of scares me but I want to do it. Help!
