  • Sounds like a lot of weight to lose in a kind of short amount of time.... Is it possible? I would love to do it!

    135 almost feels like a lofty goal for me right now, since I can't remember ever being that weight since puberty probably :P. Buuut I was 40 pounds lighter when I first met my husband, and even then I had some meat on my bones, so I'm thinking this is a good goal weight! :) I'd love to try! Best part is if I do the full 20 weeks of TurboFire (which I just started this week) it should hopefully end in August - fits perfect for me! :)

    I think I'm going to change my goal weight, I would love to lose 40-50 pounds, but I don't want to get discouraged and quit if I don't lose that much ...making an easier goal will just make me keep positive!

    So , let me redo this :P

    Okay so what else should we do tho make this official? I know that other groups do weekly challenges and such to keep everyone motivated. When is everyone going to be weighing in? Is someone actually keeping track of our weight loss as a group?

    I've been looking for a group to join and this one seems perfect; count me in! We use kg's down here in Oz so I'll try my best to get the weights right.

    We could have a theme for everyday like other groups have such as Monday being the day that everyone says what they found easiest and hardest this week etc
