  • i agree. i'd love to get down 20 lbs by christmas. but i'm not sure that that's entirely possible for my situation. (not trying to make excuses though :explode: )
    20 lbs in 10 weeks for me would be a miracle haha. but, HELL, i'd love to jump on for the challenge! :bigsmile:

    I would love to join! I was a bit discouraged earlier today as I am battling an injury (hoping to be walking by Christmas) so I will need to be extra creative in exercise to lose but I am up for the challenge. Any and all please add me if you are looking for additional support as well. I need to get back on the bandwagon and need all the help I can get.

    Current -149
    Goal - 130
  • I'm in. I would like to be 20 pounds lighter by christmas. I weighed today and at 194. My goal weight will be 174. I have not seen that in 18 years. It would be nice. How do I sign up?

    I'm weighing myself in kg, so am not sure on the lb conversion. but am currently 116kg. i would LOVE to be 100 kg by christmas/new years. I havent been 100kg since about 2006 (highschool). i think 16kg is closer to 30/35lb?

    20lbs is about 9 kgs. I would love to be there by xmas, but don't know how do-able that is for me. However, I'll give it my best shot.

    Current weight (let's be honest, it fluctuates because of my eating/my scales) but it's around the 70kg mark
    Goal weight: 61kg (although anything below 65 and I'll be happy!)

    Pick me! I'm all in for this one. Twenty by Christmas was my own personal goal so having others to share it with and keep me going will be great. SW 263 GW 243

    I'm in! Starting at 170, would love to get to 150 by Xmas (but realistically 155-160). I've been in a bit of a rut for the past few weeks, so I need a reason to get back on the wagon!

  • I'm in! Starting weight is 165, goal weight by Christmas is 145! :)
  • I'm in, too...

    Got back in the game last week at 218lbs which is down 44 lbs from the highest of 262 in Oct 2010. I've lost 4 lbs this week, and I would like to be 194 by Christmas. Feel free to add me...

    Hi everyone!

    Wow...huge response. There's over 80 of us trying this... Good news is we'll have a great support system. I've written down the names of everyone and will add you to the group if you are not in there already. Also, let me know if you don't want your starting weight posted. I'll get all the numbers together and pop it on the group board some how. Glad to know so many of you have similar goals. Our family always does a family photo while everyone is together and I really would like to be 20 lbs down for it. We can do this!

    Good luck everyone!!!!
