    Thank you! I'm actually taking this seriously this time. Of course I'm scared to death of the actual turkey day. I'm normally the one making the food! Everyone is expecting all of the family traditional dishes.

    Good for you!
    But yes, that does sound like a challenge! Actually, thanksgiving is usually when I eat the least amount of food. Since I'm vegan, no one ever prepares anything I can eat! But I turn 30 in January, and I would really like to enter my 30s in maintenance mode instead of still trying to lose! I'm hoping this challenge will really help.

    I'm in.

    Have about 30 lbs to lose. Which I think should be doable by thanksgiving hopefully!
    I lost these 30 lbs about 6 years ago but slowly gained it all back sadly.

    Please feel free to add me as well :)

    I was in a similar situation about a month ago -- good calorie intake and exercise, but the scale wouldn't move!

    For me, I cut starches (rice, potatoes, bread, pasta) and increased vegetable intake. I've been losing 2lbs a week steadily since again. Something like this could work for you to?

    I am in but joining late. My goal is to lose 15-20 lbs by Thanksgiving... I am a 32 year old mom of 4 with a hubby who is gone for work a month at a time so always made the excuse not enough time. Well school just started back up and I am going to do it this time. I. 5'7" and 290lbs hoping to hit 270-275 by Thanksgiving as that will put me back to my weight in highschool. Ultimate goal is 180.

    Update time!!

    SW: 248.0 (when I joined this thread - original weight was 265)
    CW: 239.0

    9 lbs down for this challenge! Just watching my calories... nothing fancy. I walk a mile or two every day and that's my only exercise. Just proof that it doesn't take too much effort to make things happen! :) Keep up the great work, everyone!
