I just saw this post and want to join in the fun. My birthday is mid-August and this would put be back in my jeans I was wearing this time last year. And I looked good in them. :-)

I will let new members in since there has been such a large request and some of the current members aren't even posting their stats. So if you have recently posted you want to join (in the past week) I will let you in, but I must tell you, it will be a little more difficult sence the challenge ends August 13th. Good luck to all new and older members!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE CAN DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for letting me join, Sherri! I've adjusted my goal since I realized August 13th really isn't that far off! My goal is to be 255 by August 14th, my 7 year wedding anniversary. It's about 1.7lbs a week. Unfortunately right now I don't know where I stand because my scale broke a couple weeks ago. Ordered a new one and it's supposed to be delivered today (hopefully my husband is awake and can sign for it!). That will give me a much better picture of how realistic this goal is. Either way, I'm gonna work my *kitten* off and lose this weight!

Are there weekly challenges or just weigh-ins? When do we report our weigh-in?

Looking forward to getting to know everyone and dropping these #s together!

All we do on this one is weigh in between Sunday and Wednesday. I have everyone's weight posted by Thursday or Friday. The last day that we post our stats, I will have the amount everyone has lost summed up at the end. If you want monthly challenges, there are some great one's on here and one of them I am a member of. I'm glad you adjusted your weight, that was a good idea! Good luck and hit my inbox if you need anything!

For those of you who have not posted your stats, please do so by the end of the day tomorrow. And for those of you who have just joined, this challenge will be a little harder because August 13th will be here before you know it. But with alot of hard work and determination, we can do this. I ask, though, that you don't lose more than you think you are capable of in 12 weeks. If 12 weeks is too short of time for you to lose 40#, then please readjust your goals. I do not want any unhealthy weight losses. Good luck to everyone!!! WE GOT THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had wanted to lose the total 40lbs by august but it looks impossible with only 13 wks left! All I can do is try...and keep the weight coming off....nothing is totally impossible- right?

Keep up your hard work, I promise it's not in vain! Even if you're not losing weight, I know you have to be feeling better. I know I do, anyway. So keep pushin it, baby girl, you'll get there!

It's gonna be tough, joining so late. You may wanna reconsider your goals. Losing 40 pounds in 12 weeks is difficult, and I don't want you losing an un healthy wieght so, please take that into consideration. If you really wanna do it, though, go for it!

sherrismith82

Im ready

40 pounds will be difficult to lose in 12 weeks, but anything is possible. You may want to consider losing 30 pounds then going for the other 10 later. The choice is yours. We can do anything we set our minds to, I just don't want anyone losing an unhealthy weight. Good luck!!!

Here is the updated list. if I never received any stats from you, I took you off the list. We started this challenge 6 weeks ago and if you're not gonna post your stats in 6 weeks, you're obviously not in the challenge anymore. For the new folks, I need your stats as soon as you get them. At the end of the challenge, I will post exactly how many pounds each person lost and how much we lost as a group! Keep up the great work, everyone!!! Btw, I will definately be closing this group on Sunday, so if you wanna be in it, please let me know now!!! The group will be closed on Sunday evening and not reopened because we are getting very close to the deadline! GREAT JOB, GUYS!!! :smooched:
