    Yeh .. but you are dude! Dudes lose faster .. so we are even ..lol.

    I went out yesterday and bought two jars. I put some pretty rocks in one jar .. one rock for each pound I want to lose .. the other is empty. I am going to put a rock in the empty jar every time I lose a pound. When I am done .. the empty jar will be full and the full jar will be empty! Boom!

    I weighed in and have my starting weight. I think I am going to change my counter to zero for the new year.

    That's a good idea. I like the visual aspect of that. Provides MORE motivation. Instead of rocks...I may use money to buy something I want.

    The idea for putting rocks for every lb lost is great. Putting money for every lb is good as well. What I am doing is having a bet with my friend to lose 52 lbs in this year and i will win 1,000 kroners. Last year i won the same amount for losing 45 lbs. Money is not a bad motivator for some people I guess:)

    Hi Everyone! Happy New Year!

    My scale said 168 lbs. Grrrr!
    My goal is 135 lbs.

    At a pound a week I should be there by mid August. I'm hoping for a bigger initial loss the first week as I have been eating horribly over the holidays. I can feel the fluid retention. I know it would just be water weight but it is still less weight on my bad knees.

    Beginning Weight (late November): 196
    Current Weight (as of 12/26): 192
    Goal Weight: 120 (appox)

    So I'm looking to lose 70 or so pounds, or an Irish setter. I'd really love to be close to the goal by September, but I'll be content if I lose it all by around this time next year. I see the dietitian tomorrow, and then I'll know how much I weigh for this week.

    Oh and I'm 5'3 and 28 years old.

    Happy New Year everyone!

    I weighed in this morning, as Tuesday is my usual weigh in day.

    Current weight 162.75lbs
    I gained 2.5lbs over Christmas - not as bad as it could have been.
    Goal weight 137lbs
    So I want to lose 25.75lbs, and if I can keep going at 1lb a week should put me to goal somewhere around mid-year.

    Good luck everyone!

    Hello everyone! I'm excited to be a part of this group. I hope everyone had a wonderful New Year's Day.

    My weight stats:
    January 1, 2013: 260.7 pounds
    2013 Weight Loss Goal: 52 pounds
    Goal Weight for December 31, 2013: 208.7 pounds

    52 pounds in one year is a lofty goal for me, but I'm going to take it one day at a time.

    If I am to lose a pound a week for the year I hope to be at most 183 by the end.
    I'm hoping to lose more, my ultimate goal range is 150-140.
    Here's to us!

    ok starting at 191, goal of 150 so that is 41 elbees. 2 elbees a week just doesn't seem to work out, 1 is more reasonable for me so here's to it!
