    I'm in.

    I want to be at least 20.2 pounds lighter by Christmas. And the time frame is realistic.

    My stats

    Starting weight: 194.2
    Goal weight. : 173.8

    Fitness goals : 5 workouts/wk

    I'll update the rest of measurements.

    If you don't mind me suggesting, it would be nice to keep this group with limited members so that we all can be personally more accountable and motivate each other.

    I want to do this. 20 pounds less then what I am right now would make me smaller then I was when I got married at 20 years old. Boy that would be great!
    Start weight is 264 (I was originally 297) and I have no idea on the measurements. For as big as I am this SHOULD be totally possible.

    This was actually my exact goal.

    My starting weight was 132.2 as of August 8/11/12 and my meaurements were:

    -Neck : 13.5

    -Waist : 31.0

    -Hips : 35.0

    -Thighs : 22.5

    -Arms : 11.0

    I would like to be around 110 pounds (or even 105 if possible). Since I am short, every pound counts! Feel free to add me.

    Really my goal is to lose 50 pounds before I turn 50 (April) and I just hit the halfway mark. Honestly would love to lose the other 25 by Christmas, but 20 is more realistic.
