    I can't believe we are onto the next challenge!! I will get back tomorrow with my before picture, I have never posted a picture so this will be interesting haha. My goal is to run 5 miles straight. Right now the longest run I have accomplished has been 4 miles so I would really like to make that 5, or better yet 6!

    SW- 154
    GW-142

    I just ordered my holiday dress online yesterday and I await it's arrival. Once it's here I will post pics. It's a size 16 which is a little small. Hoping to fit into it for Christmas while still being able to breathe.
    Starting Weight: 219.8
    Goal Weight: 207.8
    Yay for the new challenge!!!
    My goal is to be able to do my pilates video without having to use the modifiers. Still can't do the full teaser. Gotta work on those abs! Good luck everybody!!

    I'm in for the H2O 12 Pounds of Christmas Challenge!

    H2O Christmas Challenge starting weight - 323.4 lbs
    H2O Christmas Challenge goal weight - 311.4 (though hopefully less - I can't WAIT to be out of the 300s!)

    My One Thing I want to do by the end of the challenge - JOG! Though at over 300 lbs I don't know if this is safe for my joints and knees, but I guess we'll see. :) I haven't been able to jog since my freshman or sophomore year of high school. So, we'll see if I can be able to jog by Christmas.

    Pics - I'll see if I can take some tomorrow. :D

    Since the pics don't seem to be wanting to work for me, let's try a clickable hyperlink

    I'll have my starting weight tomorrow, but I just wanted to pop in here and say how amazed I am at the response we've got! We already have 37 members! WOWZERS!!

    To clear up any confusion about the H20 website - all of our communication, support, weigh-ins, and stuff like that happens here, on MFP, in our weekly threads. The H20 website is where we house our spreadsheet of weigh-ins, keep a few photo albums, and a countdown calendar and clock. Only caveat - you do have to join the site. We do this only so our information isn't out there in the public eye of the internet. I think y'all can understand that. ;)

    Also, if anyone is having any problems with the signature image, or with posting pictures in the thread, please don't hesitate to send me a private message. :)

    Well here goes with stats and (hopefully) photos and my reasons for doing this.

    SW on MFP and when I signed up for the challenge: 167lb
    CW: 164lb
    GW: 153lb for the challenge and overall - not quite 12lb but its pretty close. And I still want to weigh that on Twelfth Night ...

    I'm going out for a meal on 17 December with friends and want to be able to wear my 'skinny' black jeans and still be able to eat nice food. And not have those wrinkles round my saddlebags. Cue lots of leg exercises and a running programme. I am armed with my ipod, my C25K programme and lots of motivation from looking at the success stories on this site and knowing that you all are keeping going a day at a time.

    Not yet got to grips with the H20 bauble thingy.

    Hi wow we really do have lots of peeps. And for everyone who put a picture thats encouraging also. I have not yet and am still deciding if I want to. We all going to be so happy at the end. I know at the end of the H20 I was and expect even more from myself that I can stick to this better then I did the first challenge.

    Just wanted to say again that the fat free half and half at trader joes has saved my life when it comes to my early morning starbucks. I used to use reg half and half they have there. I bring my own now in a little container and just add it in. Cant tell a difference.

    Thank to everyone for encouraging me! Just seeing you all here does the trick :love: :heart:
