Goal of 20 lbs down by Christmas...any joiners?

Options
Hi everyone,

Just recently getting back at this after an extended summer off. Was doing really well until our family vacation and now need to set a goal for myself to get back on it. The goal is to lose 20 lbs. by December 25th. Looking for others who may want to do this as well. If you are interested let me know and leave your starting weight and goal weight. Thinking of weigh-in's every 2 weeks. Looking forward to it.

Lauren - Starting weight 172.6, Goal weight 152.6

    I'm totally in!!! I've been maintaining at 195 for a while and jumped on the scale this morning and saw 198...not happy! I just finished doing a P90X style workout and am planning to do them daily mixed in with my obsession which is yoga! My husband and I are also hoping to start a family very soon so I want to get as much weight off as possible before that happens.
    Initial weight: 260 Current weight: 198/195 Goal weight by Christmas: 175 :) Love it

    Count me in too, I don't think that I can maintain a 2lb/week loss as atm it's usually less than two, but I would love to be down 20 by xmas.. and then put on a few over the holidays! nom nom nom.

    - Start weight 134, goal 114 (which is only 2lbs off my ultimate goal)

    I'm feeling positive just thinking about it!
