    Is it too late to get started? If you count the 5 lbs I lost this week then I am on my way to 30 lbs gone by Christmas. I have been doing this for about 10 days is all. Gonna do the very best I can. 30lbs will put me under 200lbs for the the first time in about 5 years.

    Definitely with you on this one! I meet my boyfriend's family come Christmas time and all of his relatives are either engaged/married/dating skinny girls, ugh!
    Kara don't put too much pressure on yourself. You will see as long as you are losing something and staying on your target each day, your going to feel great come Christmas no matter your weight. You can do it but do it for YOU:flowerforyou:

    I am in, too. I really want to lose 30 by Christmas. I know that I have lost a few pounds already. I really want to have baby #2 and I am getting close to 40. I have to do it now or my chances of having another will be zero.

    I was doing soooo well and then I found out that we are going to relocate to Massachusetts from California...and now I am just plain stressed out because it is such short notice. I am not worried about moving across the country as much as I am about how we are going to get it done!!
