    I wish I could do this!!! I have hunger problems. I'll do well for a few days and then I'll be hungry again as if I hadn't eaten for days. :sick:

    As Malicent said the hunger games... I have the exact same problem as you do, and water doesn't help. I think you can do it if you put your mind to it!

    20#'s by christmas yes!!! 21 days no 'junk' your crazy, LOL... i dont eat junk much.. but i dont want to restrict myself on a huge level.. cuz if I do and dont have something for a looong time.. then when I can imma just have way too much of it..
    I have a goal to be a certain wt (mini yet huge first goal of mine) by nov 3rd.. 13#'s by then.. so ya i could see another 8 after that by christmas!! and that would make 38#'s total lost on mfp! (im down 18 so far in 9wks):bigsmile:

    I'm glad you're having success in your weight loss, 18 pounds is amazing progress!! These are probably the first goals I have set EVER, and yes I think I'm crazy too conisdering all I eat is junk food, hopefully I don't over eat after the 21 days are up. Good luck on getting to number 38, YOU CAN DO IT !!! :)

    My goal is 3 lbs a week, roughly 12 lbs a month. So far I am right on track, I've lost 37 lbs in 3 mos. I still have 6 lbs to go toward making my Sept goal so that combined with my Oct goal I want to lose a total of 18 lbs by Halloween. You can add me if you want even though our goals are slightly different. Good luck!

    Not sure if I can lose 20 pounds by Christmas, but I'm willing to try. My weight has been coming off slowly. I walk for exercise. Can't do a lot of heavy exercise due to my arthritis. I do watch my calories - eating 1200 calories or less a day. Once in a while a little more. Rarely do I eat junk food anymore. It doesn't even appeal to me. Except for sugar - I do miss it. Fruit helps.

    Try more protein! That helps me.

    I'm in! Getting married Jan 5th, so its perfect timing! I'm assuming its 20 lbs from today, not total since we started right?? Just clarifying :)
