Yikes, it's 16 weeks to Xmas about now. Ideally, I'd like to lose 23lbs...that's the extra 7 to get back down to 150, and then another stone.

But I think I realistically have to have 16lbs as my goal. 1lb a week is do-able. Anything else would be a bonus.

Anyone else have an Xmas goal?

:smile:

    I make it just over 17, so maybe you could lose 17.5 lbs? :wink: I'm hoping to lose about 10-12 lbs, which would probably get me to my size goal, but I don't know if I will be able to as I'm so close to goal now. I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing, and let the pounds fall where they may. :drinker:

    It's 4 months from today so I would like to be able to lose about 4 kg a month / 1kg a week.
    So 16kg by xmas maybe I should aim for 10kg by xmas and anything else is a bonus !

    You just reminded me of Christmas and now I'm excited ;_;.

    I guess I'd like to be about halfway to my goal weight or so by then? I'm mostly trying to lose the dreaded skinnyfat so it'll be slow going...

    I would love to be anywhere in the 130s...which would mean at least 17bs, which would put me at 139...my ultimate is 135 by New years day. That way I can start off my new year with the totally awesome achievable resolution to get to my goal weight of 119 by my birthday in June!

    I hadn't really thought about Christmas, but two weeks after that when I run the Disney Half Marathon I'd like to be down to 225 which was my original goal when I joined MFP (now down to 210). Depending on my weigh in today then that will be 25 pounds (currently at 250) or slightly less (hopefully). So, 23-25 pounds in 18 weeks is doable, but I've not been coming close to 1.25 pounds a week recently, so probably all a pipe dream, but setting a goal and not reaching it is not a failure. (I should have been at my goal right about now based on the MFP 2 pound a week, so obviously that did not happen).

    My personal goal is 20 lbs by my birthday on Dec 13. Add almost two weeks to that...I might be able to do 25 by Christmas.

    IF I can stay away from the pumpkin pie and gingerbread!!!
