I want to lose 10 lbs by the May 24 weekend, who's in?

I'm about 5'6" and 130 lbs. I've been carrying the same extra weight for years, it needs to go. I have long weekend plans, and I want to look amazing in my bikini! Anyone else in this boat? :)

    This seems very doable and I would like to try. I have to up my workouts and change a few other things in my diet so 10 pounds by May 24th. So count me in! Add me and we can keep each other updated.

    That's about my goal too! I have a conference in Vegas the weekend after - and I'd love to get a cute dress.

    5'3" currently 127 lbs. I've got the diet situation mostly under control - but now I need to start working out. Please add me. :)

    I would love to! I'm 5'6" and 132 lbs, but I'm 17 lbs away from my goal weight. Do you have any specific plans to reach your 10 lb goal?

    I also want to lose 10lbs by may 24th.. I have been at this weight for almost three years and its time to let it go. Since April 2nd I have been eating within my allowed calories and exercising 6 times a week with a mix of step aerobic and trx. Have lost just three pounds. Will also start whey with 0% carb from today. Still 10 to go for my goal weight of 117. All suggestions and ideas are welcome. Just tell me it's doable.

    I'm down to 128 from 130!!!

    Height: 5'4.9
    S.W.: 132
    C.W. 128
    G.W. 124ish... It depends on how I look! It's more so body fat % I will concentrate on, once I am solidly in the early 120s and happy enough in a bikini!

    May 24th, HERE WE COME! :P

    I am 12 pounds away from my goal weight so count me in. I would love to lose all of it. I am going rockhounding that weekend and the extra weight is holding me back. Also I need to really step up my resistance training because I will need the extra muscles to do this as a hobby.

    I'm 5"7 and 151lbs. I've got 15-20lbs left to lose so 10lbs off by the 24th would be awesome!

    Please all feel free to add me! :)

    I am in! I have 20lbs total to lose, so this would put my halfway to my goal!

    Currently 5'8" 170lbs
    Goal: 150lbs.

    The least I've ever weighed was 140 and the people around me we worried for my health, so I don't want to get back to that weight again.

    To reach this goal:
    Stay under my calorie goal most days (I know there will be a day or two where I slip up, not going to condem myself when it happens)
    Started Couch to 5K this weekend, will continue. Program says to do it 3 days a week but I plan on 5.

    I'm in. That is right before my birthday and I want to look good.

    I'm about 122 on good days and 124 on bad days. I would like be 115 and more toned. I'm tired of jiggly thighs and arms. I have been eating okay and exercising everyday. I think I will add running to my day and see what that does. I feel that I am just staying at the same weight.

  • Keep up the great work, my friends!
  • Keep up the great work everyone! I don't have a scale in my home, but I have noticed a definite difference in my waistline and in my legs. Who else is seeing progress? :D
  • I would love to! I'm 5'6" and 132 lbs, but I'm 17 lbs away from my goal weight. Do you have any specific plans to reach your 10 lb goal?
    I'm a little concerned that you may be shooting a bit too low for your goal weight. You're 5'6" around the same height as me, and our BMI says we should be no lighter than 115. I know that's your goal, but don't get discouraged if you can't get there. Sometimes your body just has to put it's foot down and say, "No, this is good right here."

    I'm very happy to hear you're setting healthy goals for yourself. With that in mind, don't push yourself too hard. If a program says you should work out three days a week, perhaps try starting with that before raising it to 4, and then to 5.

    My weigh in day is Wednesdays. I lost 2 more pounds this week so now I have 8 to go to meet this challenge and 10 to go to reach my goal.
