    I will focus on walking...and I'm going to *try* to lift my light hand-weights. Either that or bench pressing my 11 pound cat :laugh:

    LOL, makes me wish I had a cat, although I don't think I'd trust something with claws over my face/chest. Instead, I have a 68 pound dog who would probably never like me again if I tried to lift her. (She was supposed to be a smaller dog by many inches and pounds.) I don't know anything about dog calories or rates of weight loss, but she and I are both taking the "lose weight by Halloween" challenges. :-)

    I signed up for the "20 lbs by Halloween" challenge on 8/31 (SW 183). I don't think I'm going to make it, so I'll try for 15.

    Great idea! I've been losing motivation to not eat as much lately-- I started new exercise classes, but they're only replacing exercise I was doing on my own, not adding to it! So this will serve as much-needed motivation to get back into gear and hold myself accountable to what I'm eating/doing.

    Current weight: 119
    Goal weight: 114

    I'm only putting it down 5 lbs. because I want to tone up, too, and I'm already so close to my goal weight that I don't want to lose muscle weight.

    Peeked at the scale today and saw 186 down from 189.

    I'll take those 3 lbs and hopefully double it soon!

    I'm in. 10lbs by Halloween. My 10 year old has decided that he doesn't want to go trick or treating (not a big candy fan) but would rather hang out with Mom at the house and help hand candy out. I told him that 's fine but we still had to dress up if we are going to hand candy out.

    Game on! No costume for me, however I might be in a few pics with my boys on Halloween. I have a mini goal to be -20 lbs by next fri sept 14th, so I will go from there. Let's make it 12.5 lbs lost by our due date of Halloween. Also, just did day one of C25K.

    Argh! Here we go....

    Current weight: 180.5 (yuck yuck yuck!!!!)
    Goal weight: 168

    The above was start date. I have reached my goal mini goal a bit early so I hope to keep the momentum going. Have a reward weekend in two days, going to a concert with husband. Can't wait!

    Start weight (9/3) 180.5
    Current weight (9/11) 178.0
    Goal weight (10/31) 168.0

    To all on this post.... Great job on your loss so far and keep after it.

    I'm in!!! Halloween is my daugther's birthday. I reached my goal weight at the beginning of the summer, and it felt so good. But now I've slacked off and gained a few pounds back. I don't think 10 lbs is realistic for me, but 5 lbs would put me back at my original goal weight. SO, its time to dig deep and push hard, then I can really enjoy some birthday cake!!!

    SW: 163.2 (9/7) OUCH!
