    I guess I'm in. I need something to push me hard, since I'm losing motivation.

    I'm so in!! My real goal/deadline is October 29th, my wedding day! So I'm definitely in on this challenge for sure! 8-10 seems doable, as I originally wanted to lose another 18 by then. There should be some sort of sticker app for winning a challenge on here! haha.

    I'm in, I need people to keep pushing me! 10-12# sounds real reasonable by Halloween!

    I'd love to join too. I could use friends to push me too. I'm having a hard time with motivation.

    I went back to work as a 4th grade teacher 2 weeks ago. Last week was the first week with students. I was exhausted and so didn't have the best week. I'm starting fresh this week though!

    Hi! I'm in also! I made a pact with my mom to lose 20 lbs by Halloween when I started MFP 2 weeks ago. Lost 7 lbs the first and ~1 this week. Boo for second week slump!

    Plus, the month of September will be difficult because my boyfriend will be gone! I would love to be 210-213 by Halloween, and (ideally) 200# by my birthday on 12/05. Not sure if the latter is possible, but I know the Halloween goal is!

    This should be a haunting task!!!

    Sounds good, I'm in. I am pretty close to my goal weight so I want to lose the last 2-3 pounds and maintain. I also am going to work on strength train more as I have fallen into the all cardio rut.

    I was in on the first one! I love Halloween! It is my favorite. holiday! I want to be out of the 200's so my dream goal for halloween is 199 but I will be happy with 202. My second favorite holiday is New Years so we should start a new challenge for it too!

    cw 212 going to try for 199 on Halloween so I have 13 pounds to lose two months.

    WE CAN DO IT!

    Alright so here's the report. Friday i had a weigh (my normal) at 230.4 which was a no loss/no gain week, this mornings weigh in was 227 which shows a 3.4 lb loss for a total of 8 lbs, but since i'm headed for 220 lbs that leaves 7 more to go before Halloween
