    I'm in too, I'm having a bad day and this is just what I need to kick myself into doing the right thing...... 5 lbs seems so doable, although I'm gaining and losing the same 3 lbs over and over and over. Maybe I can kick them to the curb this month!

    Count me in! :) So how does this work...how will we see everyone else's progress without having to go through the whole thread?

    you will have to keep up with the posts. we are always posting new things and updating our progress. There isn't much structure to this group just a lot of supportive people cheering eachother on to meet their goal
    just weigh on your own weigh in day whenever that might be and post your weight and pounds lost for the week right here on the reply board. we like to keep it simple

    I'm up for this, my plan is to lose 21lbs by December 7th and I'm aiming to do it properly this time and not drop the weight too quick. 5lbs a month is my goal, I'm planning to stick to my calories and eat my exercise calories back and in. General just be more active. If I lose more than 5lbs in a month then great but I think 5lbs is a very achievable goal. I can not wait till December when I can post in the success stories board and show everyone how far I will of come by then.

    Woo hoo, I'm in! I'm just coming off of the 25000 calories challenge in June, and I haven't weighed myself since May 31st as part of my own self-imposed challenge, so I was looking for something different to do for July. 5 lbs is realistic and yet still definitely a challenge what with all the BBQs and patio drinks that happen in summer months. It will absolutely help to keep my in check by checking in here and having others to motivate. Good luck to everyone! I'll be posting my starting weight Friday - and hopefully it will be several pounds down from my May 31st weight of 177!
