Hey guys,

I am so ready to kick my weight loss in the rear... Since the beginning of 2013 I have been stuck in the stinkin 250's and I am ready to kick this and get lower... This challenge will last 10 weeks with official weigh in's this week and final weigh in's the week of labor day.. I will open them up for you to weigh in any day of the week. The weeks will start on Sunday and end Saturday. If you have a normal weigh day that is A-OK with us... The main thing I want to teach and learn through this is to live the weight loss journey with out having to sacrifice EVERYTHING...

I weigh in on FRIDAY so I will post my info then.. Once the starting weights are entered I will create/update my spreadsheet and post in the a forum.....

Let the Challenge BEGIN..

    Hi,
    Ok I am in. I just joined myfitnesspal yesterday So what do I need to do. Friday is ok for weighing in but I am thinking Monday may be better for me it will keep me honest over the weekend :) . But if you want us all weighing in on Friday that works.

    So what do we do? Will our starting weight remain between the participants?
    Is there a way to have our status reports show?


    Thanks for organizing the group.

    These are great questions.. You can weigh in what ever day you prefer... I know for me I like weighing in on Friday bc it keeps me strong during the week.. What ever day you think will work best for your weight loss journey is fine to use..

    I normally keep the weights between group participants.. I will have a spreadsheet but only the group members will have the link...

    Please let me know if you have any questions and I will be happy to help.. Welcome to the challenge. Glad to have you aboard my journey to becoming healthy :)

    I'm in for this challenge. I think sharing with a groups will help me be more aware of what I'm doing.

    My question is since I weigh on Sunday's would I start this with what I weighed on Sunday the 10th or wait and use what I weigh on the 17th? You say the weeks will start on Sunday and end on Saturday so I was just curious how this will work.

    I had a tough time deciding my goal weight for this. As I get closer to my weight goal the loss has slowed down. Plus I have a weeks vacation plus a week at my daughter's in April. Couldnt decide between 5 and 10 so I will split the difference for 7.5 lbs.

    Startin weight, March 15 174.4 lbs
    Goal Weight, Memorial day 167 lbs
