    15 lbs. by christmas!...but hopefully more. I'm at 158 now(lost 2 lbs so far!), so hopefully I'll be 143 by Christmas, and my goal weight is between 125-130. The sooner it comes off the better but im shooting for february.

    I would love to do this except I don't know how much I weigh, so I can't give a goal, but I can give what I would like to be by then, and that is 200 lbs or less.

    :laugh: yeah I'm with ya there banks, I don't know what to put down for christmas. I know:tongue: getting on the scale can be my christmas present to myself:tongue: yeah and about the belt, banks thats my next purchase. I simply can't keep using the old one as I would have to put holes in it now. That's how I know this is working for me. Yea I get to go shopping.:bigsmile:

    Count me in too! I just started all of this yesterday but I am going to set my goal at 12 pounds by Christmas Eve! That puts me back to where I was this time last year and a fresh start by New Year's!

    Good luck to everyone else! It's a hard battle but remember it's a war you can win! :drinker:

    I've been so discouraged. This may help! I want to be 190 by Christmas. This will be my present to myself. It's only 10 pounds, but I've been having trouble sticking to the excersize. The eating part is actually easy for me... well the lack of. LOL. Anyway, 190, I'm in!

    So it's been a week and I have been so bad! Ugh! I thought I was going to totally regret getting on that scale this morning for my weekly weigh in but I was down 3.5 lbs since last Monday! Not bad for about 3 days of the last week not even caring about what I was eating! 8.5 lbs more to go by Christmas Eve! I decided to start fresh this week and so far today I am doing pretty well. I am finding that some days it is easier to eat better than to work out and some days I just want to work out and eat whatever I want to. Just gotta figure out a way to make those two connect! Haha! :tongue:

    Good luck everyone else! I love hearing all of the success stories!
