    Sorry to be a party pooper but loosing 10 pounds in that amount of time is just not a good idea, the slower you loose it the longer it stays off. If you lost 2 pounds per month then you would be on your way to a lifetime of being slim, your body just won't let you keep off that amount of weight that fast.

    So go slow, real slow but that way it will stay off and never come back and that way you won't ride the rollercoaster.

    Scott.

    I'm in. But 10 pounds, which in Australia is 4.5kg is too much to lose in 2 weeks is too much, i lose about half a kilo a week which is about 1 pound, so I will aim for 2kg by then.

    Well, let me say this is just a challenge that was started over a week ago. It is okay just to join and see how you do. This is where we all come for encouragement.

    Please see if you name is listed below and update as you want. i try to update the list daily Monday - friday. Everyone will lose weight in their own pace. We just want to see how you do and see if we can offer some encouragement in our time of need.

    OK...How to do this? The weight I entered to begin with was 113...I weighted at the doctor's office...when I weighted (on the same day) on my home scale it was 110? If my home scale is right I have lost 1 lb since I started the calorie count =D what do you ladies recommend? should I buy a new scale? LOL

    I just started MyFitnessPal today so this is a great incentive. I am currently 210 with a goal weight of 185. 10# by May 6 should be totally doable. I am 5"10".

    I am new to "myfitnesspal" and I don't know if we are supposed to check in every day with our weight or not. How often should I do it, once a week, twice a week, everyday? Any help would be great! Thanks!!

    You have a check in button on the home page. you can check in there as much as you want. I do daily because I want to weigh myself daily. I need to know how i am doing daily. other people check in weekly and even monthly. that is up to you.

    If you want to be part of this challenge, you can check in for the first time and then again not until may 6th if you want. It is up to you.

    Sorry, I've been MIA with visitors!
    I've lost 1 lb since the first weigh in... (less than I was hoping for, but better than gaining, I suppose.)

    Start Weight 165.4
    Current Weight 164.4
    :tongue:
