    I just had a baby and between the weight I gained having him(30lbs) plus being on maternity(25lbs), I've gained a total of 55lbs that I had lost before getting pregnant. I'm so mad at myself, I love my baby but I need to find time for myself. I'd like to lose 30lbs before X'mas, most of it at first will be water weight.

    *I'm sorry if this was asked before, but do we check in here or is there a board or a chart? Do we give our weigh ins or only the weight we lose?

    Good luck to everyone! We can do this!

    In. 10 lbs by Christmas is my 'reasonable' goal, but I wouldn't be offended if it turned out to be 15 lbs. :wink:

    -7kg (-15 lbs)
    Should be attainable but I must resist holiday food temptations. :/

    There is a group that is going for the same thing. It is called 25 by 25-Holidays Challenge. I find that groups are better because you do not have to spend the day searching for a topic.

    I would love to! I need serious motivation! I lose two pounds...get so excited about my weight loss that I celebrate the next week and gain it back! What is wrong with me? I need the help to stay on track. I really could use some suggestions for low calorie breakfast, if anyone has any.

    I am in! 15-20lbs fits right in line with my goal. I had actually told a few people at work early this morning. I figure the more that know my goal will help support it (exercise, food...) and it adds pressure on my end to get as close ot it as possible.

    Please share any healthy recipes on here. I have been looking at my reports and I do fine on my cals but based off of the reports my choices have not been the best (leanest).
