I'd like to be at 260 by Christmas. I am currently 271. :grumble: :mad:

That's 11 pounds . . . I've been losing about 2 per week, so that would be 8 by Christmas if I kept on that track, but . . . I am going to try extra, extra hard to get rid of those three additional pounds!! :glasses:

Goodluck you guys. :flowerforyou:

I hope everyone has a great thanksgiving tomorrow. First check in (for me at least) is Monday. I'm eating what I want (hopefully with portion control) for Thanksgiving, but I am going to try to work a lot of it off this weekend!

There are four weeks til Christmas, from TOMORROW. huh. Christmas and Thanksgiving are exactly 4 weeks apart this year. Weird!

Good luck everyone!

Ok just checking in. I lost 2lbs and I am extreamly excited:happy: . So I have 2.8 to go to make my Christmas Challenge. Kind of nervous about Thanksgiving today. Probably going to have to work those 2lbs back off again after this weekend:grumble: but it will be worth it. I hope everyone else is doing good. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL!

CW - 143.8
Goal -141

I'll try again! For Christmas challenge I'll lower my expectations from 2lbs a week to 1 lbs a week so...

I am currently (Thanksgiving Day) 140 even... by Christmas 136 lbs. (sadly that is what I thought I'd weight today... oh well :ohwell: )

Mimiche

Checked in!
No Thanksgiving for this Canadian so I did pretty good this weekend :laugh:
I gained a pound during the beginning of November due to stress eating, so the past two weeks I've been working hard and lost it. Now to lose another pound by Christmas!

Good Luck all!

ali_uk

And me!
Would like to lose 2 pounds a week, so thats 8 by Christmas.
Have decided to reward myself with something for every 7lb, so may buy a new skirt if I succeed.
Good luck everyone. We can do this!!

I'm going to jump in too - I'm aiming for 133 by Christmas, which is 7lb down from where I am now. I'd settle for a loss of 5lb though!

First check-in for me will be Monday.

Renae_Nae

I'm at 144 (yeah...my ticker is two pounds off but I haven't changed it back because I think it's just water weight :grumble: )

I'm hoping to hit 139! That was my goal for Thanksgiving...but I've been really slow at losing weight lately! So I'm going for 5 pounds!

I'm so glad you started the Christmas challenge jill! I was doing so well on the Thanksgiving challenge until the end, when it all fell apart. Story of my life.
This is a new day and a new challenge so positive thinking.
Challenge starting weight: 136.2
Goal weight on Mon. before Christmas: 132
Good luck everyone! May we all have a very Merry and lighter Christmas!

OOOppps! I was wrong it wasn't 140 even it is 142 even that I was on Thanksgiving. Soo... today I weighed myself I was 141.8 - 4 lbs = 137.8 (hopefully I can beat that) :bigsmile:

I'm in! I just been off the wagon for 2 days now (that's including today). I'm really upset with myself. I need to keep focused and stop these ridiculous binges. I'm at 135lbs now (but could up some tomorrow due to this binge incident grr) and I want to get down to 126lbs by Christmas. Do you think that's feasible?

Bobbie145

OK, I'm in. I'm 163 on my scales at home first thing in the morning with nothing on. At least I was this past Wednesday! I'm going to shoot for 158 by Christmas day! Bobbie

That's 9# in less than 4 weeks. That might be tough. Just my opinion. :ohwell:

jenifergotti

Hello everyone! So my goal for the Thanksgiving challenge was 135 and I actually got down to 132, but I have not logged any food or worked out since Tuesday! :ohwell: I am so ashamed! I have eaten everything within my reach and when I tried to get back on track today I have been sooooo hungry. I guess I'm gonna have to get back on the wagon slowly! I don't weigh in until Monday, so we will see what the real damage is then. I will let you all know my weight now and my new goal for Christmas. Good luck everyone!

andlofly

Okay - I'm gonna give it a try. I've never done a "Challenge" before. But I'll see if it helps or hinders.

My goal for Christmas is to lose 5 pounds. I will weigh myself tomorrow morning to see what my starting weight is (haven't weighed in since Thanksgiving)

Tri_Dad

On Christmas 280.

Count me in! I didn't join the Thanksgiving Challenge because I only joined MFP a few days before. I am ready to stop my excuses for binge eating and get back to the weight I was before my 2 kids. My youngest just turned 3 so the excuse of having baby weight on is not cutting it anymore :laugh: I love this website, it keeps me so accountable! So many of you have done so well...way to go!!

Height 5'3"
Starting weight 140lbs...last week
Current weight 136.5
Christmas weight 132lbs...have to keep my goal realistic
Ultimate goal weight 125lbs

Good luck everyone!!
