    I'm in! I also have a dress to wear on NYE! It's a lace LBD and I would love to wear it with confidence. I weigh in on Thursdays usually, but as of today I am 166 and would like to be under 150 by NYE!

    I am in!! I would like to lose 20 pounds by Christmas. I have lost 17 pounds so far since October 30. I am motivated. I need to lose 15.5 pounds by Christmas to be down to where I was last Christmas... I would be psyched to surpass that with a 20 pound loss!!!

    I'm in as well! Are you planning for a weekly weigh-in?

    I have 10-15lb to lose, but 10lb would make me VERY happy :)

    YES! none of my friends are dedicated to the weight loss goal kinda stuff, so it's awesome that there is support and motivation on here! I have a skirt I'm trying to fit in by Christmas/New Years, so I'm TOTally in. It will be tough, so the support will be awesome.
  • I'm in!!!!
  • I'm in too...means I have to average 4 lbs a week which is high. I am going to shoot for 15 lbs. I just came off of Weight Watchers so we will see how this goes!
  • So in! 206 now and want to be 190 by NY! Yay for holiday accountability!

  • I'm in! I'm right there with ya! Need to drop 20, and lay off the night time munching. :sad:
  • It's taken me about 4 months to lose 20 lbs, so I don't know if this is doable for me, but sure would be nice!! I may need to start another board with 10 lbs. by New Years! ha! go for it though and Gooood luck. : )

    Don't think 20 lbs is doable for me in 3 1/2 weeks
    even 10 will be a very big challenge---but 10 will be my goal!

    20 pounds in 3.5 weeks is a LOT of weight, probably more than is healthy to lose in such a short time frame, unless your morbidly obese and at the beginning of your diet. I would re-evaluate your goal. As much as I'd *like* to lose that much by NYE, I also realize it's not realistic. I'd like to just say I lose 10 in 3.5 weeks, and even that's a stretch, because I only plan to lose 2/week, 3 max.

    EDIT: I see this post is from last month. Disregard previous statements lol.
