    My birthday is just a couple days before yours... I've got a ways left to go to my goal, so as much as I can lose by then is what I want. I'll say... 21 pounds as my goal here. Maybe doable, maybe not. But it's worth a shot!

    My birthday is the day after yours. I don't have a specific goal by my birthday, but would like to be down at least 10-15 more pounds by then.

    Thursdays are my weigh-in day. Today I weighed in at 266, which was a big loss week (from 271). Not sure how much of that should count for this first week. I will probably count the whole thing since that seems more impressive. :)

    As you know my birthday is August 31st too which YUCK this year falls on a Wednesday but on the plus side Wednesday's are also my weigh in day! I am 208.6 as of yesterday and since I will be celebrating my birthday on Friday 9/2 my goal is to be 198 by then! So that means I need to lost 10 more pounds between now and then. I think that is probably doable!

    Oh and P.S. I will be turning 26 eeekkkk!!


    Let's DO THIS!!!! :bigsmile:

    August birthday people are awesome... just saying!

    I'm August 28 (I'll be 24!) and I'd like to lose another 5 to 10lbs by then!

    I weigh in every Friday, last Friday I weighed in at 172! I'd love to be between 160 and 165 by my birthday :)

    I haven't deserted... but I did go out of town for a week (to Vegas!) and am skipping a weigh-in this week. I may or may not have lost weight in Vegas, but regardless I know I will have extra water weight from all the sodium, so I am going to just wait until next Thursday to weigh in for the two week period.

    Good luck to the rest of my August b-day pals.
