    Are you just going to keep it in the thread - or are you going to start a group. Groups are nice so you can have one thread for discusion, one thread for weighing in, etc. Just a thought.
  • I am in!

So yes it's possible and good luck friend!!!!!

    The spreadsheet is up everyone! Let me know if I messed anything up. There was a lot of people to add so I could have missed someone or messed up a weight.Also, there are several of you who did not weigh in.Please do so as soon as possible so I can add your start weight and goal weight.

    Also,let's have a little mini challenge for this week!

    I challenge you to workout an extra hour this week!Whatever you usually do, fit in an extra 60 minutes this week!

    Good luck everyone and let's keep this thread going with support!
  • I messed up my starting weight - sorry! It should be 226.2 (NOT 262.2).

    Thank you and sorry to make you enter mine twice!

    I'm totally in for the challenge this week - I exercise every morning for 20 minutes, so I will add something in the evening and I'll include my two boys.

    Thank you for doing this - this is so fun and motivating!!!

    I would love to join!! My goal is for a vacation I'm taking on January 14th, but new years is close enough!!!

    SW: 155.4
    GW: 140

    I know that is a small goal for such a long time, but I have struggled to lose these last 15 pound forever!

    My other goals would be to increase my water intake on a permanent basis and continue working out throughout the winter (I tend to stop when it gets cold haha)
  • @mindy. Wow, very inspirational! Congrats on the meds! That is awesome. What an inspiration, such a big weight loss! Hey, everything is big here in Texas, right, including our weight loss I hope! :-)

    Man is my weight fluctuating this week. The 2 days of eating extra buttery popcorn in the evenings might have something to do with it.

    Very mad at myself, was down to 149 in Feb, then went back up to 152. Held on there till summer, then packed on 8 pounds over summer. Now time to lose them.

    Currently doing the 30 day shred mon - fri (except going to do it today, instead of tom). Once I am done this, in 4 weeks, I am going to alternate, 30 min on treadmill 3 days a week , then do 1 level of 30 day shred on the other days.

    Please make me stick with this plan. I tend to give up on the exercising easily

    I would love to participate! My starting weight is 163 and goal weight is 155 (or lower!) for the challenge.

    NSV would be to actually run a 5k without stopping, walking, etc. I can run one on the treadmill but that is a world's difference from running one on the street.

    I am very, very new--first time to boards and to post! This is so what I need though..I know its a few days late but can I still join? If so--my start weight is: 294 and my goal weight is: 260 for a loss of 34lb. Even if it is a lofty goal, I am at the point I need a CHALLENGE not a "pretend challenge" if you know what I mean...

    I have to do this now..I keep putting everyone and everything in front of me..now it is ME time..and I WILL DO THIS!!
