    I'm in!!! I definitely need some accountability! Thank you so much for this!
    My starting weight as of 3/17/11 is 160 lbs.

    My goal by July 4th is 145 lbs.

    I know i can lose more than 1 lb a week, but I'm giving myself some wiggle room so as to not be discouraged! My ultimate goal is 125 by Nov.15 (my birthday). This will definitely get me going!

    I've never done anything like this before, and am fairly new to MFP (1/11) but I'm definitely interested.

    My weigh in for 3/20 is 166.8 and my goal weight is 140. That's ambitious at just over 1.5 pounds a week, but that is my first goal weight and why not go for it? My ultimate weight goal is somewhere between 125 and 130.

    We just come here and post weekly? Or do we send you a message? How does this work (like I said, I'm new here)? Thanks for doing this!

    okay if you have given me a START weight, please hold off on giving me any NEW/NEXT weighins until after 3/24/11....or if you want to give me your next weigh in just let me know it is your next weighin and not replacing your start weight since we are only 3 days into this challenge...i'm not going to update the chart with daily changes for each person, just the once a week weighins...

    we started on Thurs 3/17, but your weigh in day does not have to be Thurs......your first weighin after the START weighin is due to me in THIS THREAD by 3/28 (monday).....that will give everyone time to get there start weights in before the first weighin and will help with those with early in the week weighins....

    also if you can give you update like below (copy and paste this one into each update and it will help us both track from week to week:
    3/17 or whatever date you did your start weight weigh in: START WEIGHT XXX
    3/24 or whatever day you do your 1st weigh in : XXX

    this is who/what i have so far...Please check the chart and let me know if i dont have your start weight correct...i did my best to update my spreadsheet as they come in thru the thread but with the copy and pasting it's possible i added you to the list but didnt get your start weight correct.....

    if there is no number next to your name and it says need, i need a start weight by monday 2/21....

    if i dont get one, i'm dropping you off the list and you'll have to be added back on if you come back...i'm not going to hunt up weights....the group has gotten pretty big and i'm excited for all of us to succeed and support each other in this challenge, but we are all grownups with a common goal and if you can't remember to get a weighin posted than i'm not going to keep asking for it.....hope that doesnt sound too *****y....each week, probably - probably monday morning, before i finish the chart, i'll post the list of who i'm missing and if i dont get a response, i'll carry you forward from last week...i'll do this one time (week) and then if the 2nd week no response, i'm dropping you off the list...i want an active thread with people who really want to work towards a common goal, to get some weight off by 4th of July......

    welcome to all the newbies and i'm happy to have you in our challenge....

    Good morning everyone this is not a good morning for me but I am ready to start this off right!!! I already mentioned earlier in a post that this was going to be a busy weekend with a lot of crappy eating well it really was plus on top of that I had a migraine it may been from all the sodium and crap I consumed so my starting weight is off the chart from where I was a few days ago and I hope where I will return in a few days from today!!!
