    I am 5.9 pounds from halfway to goal and 13.2 from pre-kids which I plan to hit by October 1 --my first born's 14th birthday! So 30 by Christmas...heck yeah!! I'm actually hoping to be about 43 pounds closer by Dec. 24 but allowing that my body doesn't always cooperate with what I want it to do, 30 would be good! :o)

    I'm in! My husband and I are talking about starting a family, but I told him I would really like to focus on losing some weight the next few months. I just want to be the healthiest I can before getting pregnant so I don't end up 30-40lbs heavier than I am right now!!
    We can do this! :smile:

    Me TOO!!! I have total of 33 pounds to loose still so I think 30 by Christmas sounds doable. how would this go? I feel a weekly check in might be a bit too much, but maybe bi-weekly?

    Count me on board. Since December 2011, I have currently lost 25 pounds, and I'm struggling to lose more, so I hope to get those pounds dripping off. I have changed up my workout, strarted eating back some of my calories about 3 days ago. So I'm yet to see any change. So I'm thinking December would be a great deadline for me.

    My weight comes from having my babies, gaining the weight and allowing it to stay. Seven boys and one daughter later.

    To be completely fair to myself, I did lose about 50 pounds in 2005, but began regaining it in 2007 when we moved to where we are now. I never wanted to move here, it is too hot to enjoy the weather, cannot go for a walk because of the heat, even too hot to simply sit outdoors. I guess you can say I was depressed to be in an unknown area, no family or friends at the time. I did have my husband and 2 sons here, but isn't that different than having my daughter around? At least I'm thinking it is, I cannot relate to my men family like I can with my daughter, whom at the time of our move had recently gave birth to our first Grandbaby.

    Since then I have been working on being happier with myself, and I am. I totally welcome ANY advice
