    I know I'm mega-late, but I seriously couldn't pass up this challenge and I hope y'all will puh-lease, please accept my late entry. I just found the link in someone's signature.

    Screen Name: JeanMargaret

    Starting Weight (On January 1st 2011): 299.0 lbs.

    Goal by July 1st, 2011 (can be more than 50 lbs, whatever you wish for): 249.0 lbs.

    Why do you want to lose 50+ pounds?: I'm obese. It's not healthy and it disgust me. I'm better than how I've been living my life and treating my body. It's time to really start living like it.

    What are your eating and exercise plans to lose 50+ pounds?: I'm doing ChaLEAN Extreme right now. I think I may start incorporating some running, here and there. I eat in range of 1600-1800 calories a day & I exercise most days of the week.

    Gee whiz, Carla. I'm so sorry to hear about the lightning and all. Gracious! I'm glad (I assume) everyone's alright, though. Geez!

    It still shows mega-dedication that you went to a friend's to post. I think that's super awesome.

    Now, for everyone else...I hope you're kickin' some fat cells this week and buildin' some super-strong muscle.

    *Let's do this*

    Hello all, I'm Stephanie. For those of you who know me, you know I love having weight loss challenge groups! It pushs me to lose weight and I want to help you in your weight loss goals. Every month I hold a seperate weight loss group for that month. My December group lost over 119 pounds in total as a group. And I know we can repeat that success. 50 lbs it's about 2 pounds a week from now until July 1st. YOU CAN DO IT!!! I wanted to start a group where we can really push ourselves to get ready for the summer that will carry on over the next few months. Summer will be here before we know it and many stores already have bathing suits out on display. UGH if that doesn't push me to get this weight off, I don't know what will. lol...For this group we will weigh in every Saturday. I will post a chart every Sunday of our success. If you miss 2 consecutive weeks for weigh in, we will remove your name from the chart. This will be an intense group with no excuses. We will help each other with each other's weight loss goals. On Saturday January 1st, 2011 please fill in the following form:

    Screen Name:
    Starting Weight (On January 1st 2011):
    Goal by July 1st, 2011 (can be more than 50 lbs, whatever you wish for):
    Why do you want to lose 50+ pounds?:
    What are your eating and exercise plans to lose 50+ pounds?:

    Is it too late to join the group?
    My screen name is Mamajess
    my starting weight on 1-1-11 was 238.8
    My goal is to weigh 180 by july 1st
    My reason for wanting to lose weight is so I can be healthier and have more energy to play with my children and live life more fully. I am also tire of looking like the marshmellow man off of the ghost busters. .No, seriously that is what I look like. I want to be the pretty wife that I used to be.
    I have about 20 different work out dvds that I swith between so my body doesn't get used to any one thing and I am trying to basically cut calories, carbs and fat from my diet. Not all of them but lower the amount that I normally have . Instead of 3,500 calories I am trying to stay between 1,500 and 1,800. :happy:
