    Count me in I can do with a little extra motivation. 5% is 9.25 but I'll round it up to 10 pounds. My current weight = 185, goal weight = 175.

    I'm in too first challange :) I normally do my weigh ins on a Monday mornings my 5% is 16lbs very embarassing to post but hay if I complete my 5% then its 16 less...

    My first mini goal is 10% by Xmas which was 34 lbs n I've lost 11 in 2 weeks :) so this fits in perfectly !

    Find out on Monday if I've lost any more .... Fingers crossed :)

    Can I join?

    Last weigh in was 196.4 (w00t!) so 5% would be roughly 10 pounds. I was a part of a few challenges earlier (like labor day challenges) but couldn't devote enough time to anything really, due to some issues at work. I'm totally committed now! So exciting!

    I started a Christmas challenge, but would love to join a Halloween challenge. I think it will help keep me up with my challenge :smile:

    I also did the Labor day challenge and didn't do so well either.

    My 5% is to lose 8.12 lbs

    When I signed up for the challenge my 5% was to lose 8.12 lbs, but since we don't start til tomorrow, I'm weighing in today (I have another challenge that weighs in on Sundays), and my current is 159.4 and my 5% of that for this challenge is to lose 8 lbs. SO by Halloween, my weight is going to be 151.4 lbs.

    I'm probably being dense, but is the 100miles per week or over the 6 weeks?

    I would like to join! I'd have 7.5 lbs to lose, and I'm wanting to get this weight off so I can be healthier and more active for my family. With 3 kids under 5, goodness knows I'm going to need the energy! I'm new to the site and I'm not sure exactly how this works, but I'm in! :)

    I am shooting for a 10,000 calorie burn... I figure I walk about 3mph and did (33.3 x 60= 2000 minutes) and see that I burn about 9535 calories walking that pace for 2000 minutes... HAHA

    I am going to shoot for a 10,000 calorie burn instead of miles... hope that is ok.

    I don;t want to rely on a pedometer because they are very inaccurate when doing things other than WALKING... high impact just blows it up...


    (I am about a 190 pound female)

    WITH 6 WEEKS THAT IS ABOUT 1700 (1666) CALORIES A WEEK OR 250 CALORIES A DAY (242*7) -- I LIKE TO ROUND UP!
