    I don't see how you guys do it! I'm at 168 lbs and have been restricting calories for a month (lost 2 lbs). I do an average of 60 minutes of cardio every day. I do strength training 3x a week. I've actually been on the "You" diet since June, but quit smoking as well, so I only count it from October 1st (three months after quitting) -- and no, I didn't lose any weight from June to October. I still think it's a great diet though.

    However, I'm in. My goal is more modest - if I'm at 165 by Thanksgiving, I'll be quite happy. I've recently added interval training and kickboxing to my cardio -- I'm hoping that will help.

    Taking my first challenge! I will do some sort of cardio 4x a week. My main goal is to learn how to keep track of what I am eating. I've never done that before (for more than 2-3 days).

    I have to set my goal to 7 lbs because I'm a stay at home mom with nothing to do but work out and I have a treadmill in my livingroom! There is no way I can fail if I stop being so LAZY!!!

    HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

    Just checking in to see how everyone is holding up in the challenge! I walked 1.5 miles on the treadmill last night - not much, but hard work for myself!!!!!
    Not sure how I am doing on progress because I have joined the Banks Challenge and can't weigh myself until Thanksgiving!!! Yikes! I will let ya'll know what the final results are!

    Good luck everybody! :drinker: Cheers!

    My current weight is 153.5
    I'd like to be down another 5 pounds by T-day, but I will be happy if I'm 150!
    I try to work out 60 + minutes a day - walking and strength training at least four times a week but usually five.
    I hope everyone meets their goals! :happy:
