    Alright my fellow challenge takers!!! The weekend is here. Don't lose sight of your 1.5 lb goal this week. Have that glass of wine or bottle of beer, but just the ONE!!! One day of binging and ruin your whole week of hard work, so don't let it! :D Monday is around the corner!

    Current Weight: 162.2
    Goal Weight: 120

    Challenge Goal Weight: 154lbs

    154 will put me in a healthy BMI for my height!

    oooh, oooh, ooooooh, I'm in too! Been here a while (1.5 years) and have been slow and steady losing weight. Getting close to my goal weight but been plateaued for about a month (mostly cause I was on vacation and not really counting). Need this push to lose my last 12 lbs, and after that my focus will not be the scale, but will be BF%. Anyway, here's my deets...

    Starting weight --- 153

    I noticed some people mentioned they are interested in friends. I will look for you and friend you. Others, feel free to friend me too, just please note in the message that we are in the mini-challenge together. I get all sorts of confused when people friend me with no message. IDK, it just feels weird

    I want in! I need something to kick-start my motivation. I'm trying to familiarize myself with MFP, do you guys eat back all calories you exercise?

    Startng Weight: 159

    1st post....right here :)

    depends on how much I exercise. Basically anything under 300 calorie burn I try not too, anything above that I try to eat back about 1/2. Also, depending on your settings makes a difference about whether or not you should eat them back. Some people like to set their calories low (like 1200) and eat back their exercise so they eat about 1400-1600 a day, others set it higher and don't. Doesn't matter so much as long as you pick and approach and stick with it. Basically 1 lb=3500 calories, so if you're looking for 1.5 lbs you need to burn 5250 calories more than you eat. Hope this helps!

    Is it too late to join this challenge? My starting weight is somewhere around 200lbs and my ultimate goal is 130. But lets focus on 1.5 lbs a week for four weeks first? Small goals bring a sense of accomplishment

    Those of you that have your weight scale (how many pounds lost) on your replies - how did you get that to show up. Do you have to have your first weigh in for it to show? It shows on my profile but not when I replied to this challenge.
