I lost so much weight so quickly when I started in mid-May that only losing 5 pounds in June was a depressing let down. But adjusting my expectations to reality, I should be able to lose 10 pounds in 9 weeks.

Challenge Goal Weight: 175.0
Ultimate Goal Weight: in the 140's

Ultimate SW: 245
Challenge SW: 237.8 (lost 80 lbs; gained most of it back over years not tracking calories and BEER...found out im gluten intolerant too)
Challenge GW: 210-215
Ultimate GW: 130 yogi, vegan lean (I am 5'7)


Lowest weight: 158 and I was skinny fat. I am more confident 80 lbs heavier surprisingly.
My birthday is later in October and I was hoping to get down to 200 we will see what veganism does. I eat loads of beans and nuts. I try to do it right.

*Doing things differently this time. Literally just recommitted July 1 so this will be a challenge for me.
Eating primarily plant-based, intermittent fasting. Exercising; weights here and there, yoga, elliptical, walking, body weight exercise

Does anyone think 16lbs is an acceptable challenge goal weight by Labor Day?

I think you are going to find it really challenging to reach that goal since you are so close to your ultimate goal weight. A more realistic goal may be 8 or 10 lbs since Labor Day is a little over 8 weeks away.

Just finished 6 rounds of chemo therapy and getting ready for surgery and radiation, this challenge will help me focus on getting healthy again rather than being sick. It is great to see your goals, an inspirational group!
