Ohhh! Yes, Michael is so lovely! I've seen him a couple of times in concert and he never disappoints! I'm proud of the BC boy (I'm originally a BC girl). I'm proud of my 2 degrees of separation from him LOL - I know someone who used to work on his dad's fishing boat back when Michael did too. He said they used to make fun of little Michael (he was late teens I think?) for singing ALL THE TIME!!! :laugh: I'd love to meet him one day! He's so funny and down to earth. *swoon* LOL

I'm taking my 2 teen daughters, who are also mad for him. I have told them 'He's mine!'. They don't listen!!!!

Over 150 post and its only the first day of the month...we are gonna lock this baby up by mid month easy if we keep going strong...

Love all the newbies and first time challangers....I have really enjoyed this group since I joined....the BMK challanges and daily informational posts from Terri are just a few of the great things here....

Starting Oct 1st 174.....would love to be in the 160's for Nov (can't believe I am even saying that...never thought I would dream of such a number...but with all my lovely friends here....anthing is POSSIBLE!!)..:drinker: :bigsmile:

Todays weight is 187lbs...want to be 175lbs or lower by Dec 1..my surgery is Dec 8th..after that not workouts for 6 weeks,
yuck..maybe just walking after two weeks.

I'll try this challenge. I lost 10 lbs in 5 weeks so 5 lbs in a month shouldnt be difficult. (I hope)
SW=245 GW=240

Hi, I'm just starting out, but count me in. SW=175, GW by end of month 170!

detteski

I'm in. I'm 3 lbs away from normal "BMI" so I'm really hoping this October challenge will get me there. I've been stuck on this plateau for a month now. Would really love to be below 120 and see the teens again.

Wow so many pages already! So here is a little history, I just want to put it out there to remind myself:

Started my first weight loss challenge in August

Goal was to lose 5lbs in a month

Aug.1 - 157
Aug. 8 - 154.3
Aug. 15 - 153.2
Aug.22 - 151.7
Aug. 27 - 147.5

So goal completed and weight lost = 9.5lbs

Next challenge September lose 5lbs

Sept.1 - 147.5
Sept. 6 - 145.5
Sept. 13 - 144.8
Sept. 18 - 142.4
Sept. 26 - 142

Goal completed and weight lost = 5.5lbs

Now on to October! Somehow I have lost weight between Sept.26 and today I think it might be an error but I have had a rough few weeks and the loss has makes me happy and focused so I am recording it...lol.

October challenge to lose 5lbs.

Oct. 2 - 140.9 (.9 away from my happy weight Another 10lbs and I will be at my ultimate goal )

I also wanted to say that I have lost 4 inches around my waist since august and 3 around my hips. I am also back into the same pants I wore before my 2nd daughter.

That's great motivation for the rest of us too! At least for me, since I lose slow, and gain quick, the same 5 lbs.

I also wanted to say that I have lost 4 inches around my waist since august and 3 around my hips. I am also back into the same pants I wore before my 2nd daughter.

That's so great! Congrats! That's like, a whole new body!! I was excited when I just lost 1" from waist and 1" from hips! :laugh:

Morning all. going to start P90x today..but will have to wait til later today....busy again this morning/afternoon with my sons activities...have bee doing pretty good (for me) on the sodium this week....will try to continue those efforts....Hope everyone is succeeding with there goals...talk to you all later!!......:flowerforyou:

epa422

I want to join. I only have 5-6 pounds to go to hit my goal weight. I lost 4 in September, so this should be doable since I didn't do a great job of working out during September. My original goal was for our Halloween party, so this should be perfect.

10/1 SW: 135.8
GW: 130

I really need to start running again. I have stopped exercising almost completely. I move around a lot more than I used to but I need to actually set time aside everyday to exercise.

You guys need to hold me accountable! Ask me on Monday how things went on the treadmill!

i completely understand where you're coming from since i use to able to run for 1hr and more. ran 10ks a few times now i can't even do it for a good 2min - i love running since it just that i concentrate on when compared to aerobics

so since monday i cut my sleep short no matter how late i go to bed and on the treadmill starting all over again and kicking myself while i'm at it

Let's beat the treadmill again

Jstr21

First day here, why not start it off with a bang. As of 10/2, 225lbs.

Let's do this.
