So Im not very good at this challenge thing never really created one, but I was thinking wouldnt it be cool for all the libras on MFP to set a birthday weight loss goal together and challenge and support each other to get there?
However if you are a Libra you very well know that some of us are not very good with small details and get bored very easily (*raises hand*, guilty)

Any Ideas?
Any one interested in heading this out? you never know unless you ask right?

Well my birthday is October 17 and my goal is 14 lbs.
Any thoughts?

    I would like to lose 15 by my 40th (Sept 29). I so need the help and push. I am able to push others, but no one pushes back and I feel alone and get unmotivated. :ohwell: Maybe this will help?

    I'm a libra... I have 21kgs to lose altogether (about 46/46pounds). this is not achievable until my birthday 8th October, but I could try to lose at least 10kgs. I never entered a challenge before so I don't know how it works either...
    ps: well done on your weight loss :)

    sounds like a great idea to me! I too get bored with challenges and usually give up. Let's try to not do that! :bigsmile:

    My goal is to be at my goal weight of 140 by my birthday October 7th. I don't know how far I have to with that exactly right now, because I skipped last week's weigh-in and am pretty sure that I gained at least a pound (yes, I went over my calories last week by at LEAST 3500).

    I will check back in after I weigh-in on Saturday...

    mine is 4th October. So shall we do a set amount to lose? or just weigh in every week. I had a mini goal of 161 which would be 17lbs. C'mon let' do it! :tongue:

    Raises hand ... I am so guilty of being bored and distracted easily. My husband swears I have adult ADD ...

    Hi MrsCJ! <waves>

    Another libra here, Oct 16th, I want to get under 20 stones (under 280lbs) by my birthday, so I need to lose about 11 lbs (currently 290.2)

    I can't do squats, my pelvis is not a happy bunny, but I'll attempt anything else!

    Ok...Im pumped! Awesome responses! Friend me if you like I think we should start the Challenge on Friday....now now here me out! I know its Friday,but my reasoning is for the simple fact that Weekends are the hardest to stay committed! So if we start our commitment on a weekend the rest of the the week will be a piece of cake....um well maybe a slice of apple.
    Im going to work on some details. Ill be reaching out to each one of you! and the cut off to join will be tomorrow at noon!

    My birthday is the 10th!

    I'm hoping to lose 10lbs by my 24th birthday - I'm also going back to Australia for vacation on the 15th, so it would be great to have shed some weight by then!
