    Hey everyone! Many many many of you have not weighed in for this week! Only 23 out of 75 participants weighed in! Please do not give up, especially in the very first week.

    For those of you who lost or maintained or even gained but still weighed in, awesome job! Every single one of you is a true motivation!

    And for those of you just joining the challenge, I have added you to the spreadsheet but your week one weigh in will be blank!
  • My weight today was 185!!!

    Is there another challenge beginning because I would like to join one. I need something to kick me in the pants.

    My goal is to lose 30 pounds.

    I will cut out most sugars, eat plenty of vegetables every day, and drink more water.

    My weight on September 1, 2012 was 222. My weight today is 216.

    No,you are not too late. Yesterday was our first weigh in so that one will just be blank on the spreadsheet for you. I need to know your starting weight and your goal weight for this challenge. We weigh in on Fridays. Also,I give mini challenges throughout the week.

    You can still join this challenge, it is long term. It doesn't end until December 26th. I give mini challenges each week. So check back to look at the spreadsheet and see what the challenge is for the week.
  • Can I still join?
    If so, please count me in.

    Here is the spreadsheet for this week! You guys are amazing! For those of you who did lose, you are that much closer to your goal! For those of you who didn't lose, today is a new day and we can do this!

    Our top losers this week:

    HelenDootson- Loss of 6 pounds!
    Chrissy198727- Loss of 5 pounds!
    Mamajoytimes2- Loss of 4 pounds
    Fat2fit4good-Loss of 3.6 pounds!
    Sagittarius_chick- Loss of 3 pounds!
    Calderon46-Loss of 3 pounds!

    For those of you who are just joining, I have added you to the spreadsheet but I left the spot for week 1 blank. Your first weigh in will be next Friday!Also, some of you may not be on the spreadsheet because you did not give me a start weight or a goal weight.

    Our mini challenge this week: Drink 7 more cups of water than you usually do throughout the week. That can be as simple as an extra cup a day. Many of us do not drink enough water and that can hurt our bodies. I am guilty of not taking in enough fluids and I get dehydrated. So let's get some water into our lives!This challenge will be very easy for some of you and for others it will be awful but I know you can do it!

    Come back to this page and support each other this week!

    Way to go to all the top loser.

    I was wondering if you also calculate % of weight lost - people who don't have a huge amount of weight to lose will never be able to compete (making it to the top losers list) with those who have lots to lose. 2 pounds is a huge to a 150 pound person, compared to a 250 person, puts things into more perspective if you look at the % of your own weight that you lost - just a suggestion -

    So glad it's not too late to join! My current weight is 178.6. My goal weight by December 26 is 165lbs! :D
  • I just re-joined MFP on Sep 5 and I definitely need a challenge to get me motivated to exercise and be mindful to eat healthy each day. Do you mind me joining now?

    On 9/5, I was weighting 217.2lbs.Today 9/15, I am at 210.8lbs.
    (Purely from counting calorie intake so far. No exercise has been done except walking up a hill for 15mins one day for a concert.)

    My goal is One-derland right now. If the goal weight is by Christmas, is it too aggressive to lose 10lbs per month? like 180lbs?

    Thanks for doing this! I do need to be kept accountable, or else I can easily regain 5lbs in a day.

    Fantastic! I have a hard time getting in my 8 cups of water daily, but I'll definitely put in more effort now.
