My personal goal is to lose my last 19lbs by Christmas. I would say Halloween or Thanksgiving, but I really want to be realistic with this. I have done so good for so long and just FELL OFF the wagon and boy, did I hit my head HARD on the way down :sad:
I have worked too hard to fall off now. I have been fortunate to only put a couple of lbs back on :blushing: but I will get them back off easily.
I would like your statements!

I would like to lose ____lbs by Christmas!!! :wink:

(Christmas is 19 weeks away)

Good luck everyone and lets make this a REALLY Merry Holiday Season a few lbs lighter :smile:

    My original goal when starting this was that I wanted to be 185 by Christmas. I'm now at 201.8 so:

    I would like to lost 17 lbs by Christmas!!!

    I can not believe christmas is only 19 weeks away and I am hoping to lose 1lb a week till I hit my goal so ideally i'd have lost 19lbs by then BUT even a stone by then would be awesome :)

    lets go with 19. 1 lb a week, which would put me under my goal weight, but Thanksgiving is before, so gives a little time to burn off any added poundage from all the yummy thanksgiving treats ;-)

    Plan is to be 190lbs by Christmas - if I can get lower than that I'd be super happy - but right now I'm going with a realistic, and (hopefully) achievable figure. So that will be 17.4lbs off my current weight :)

    I would like to lose 20 pounds by Christmas! That puts me 5 lbs away from my goal of 140. I might go below 140, but I'll start with getting there.

    I've got 28 pounds to lose to reach my goal. I'd love to do that by Christmas, however, I will be delighted to lose another 16 pounds by then as that will bring my loss to 100 pounds. x

    I'll try and push myself to lose a little more than a pound a week and aim for 22lbs by Christmas.

    18 lbs will put me at a number I feel much more comfortable with and almost halfway to my goal. If I can do that I would be ecstatic!!

    We can do it!!

    I'm hoping for at least 10-15. I realize the last 10 will take more effort so I'm not getting my hopes up that I'll be at my goal weight by then but I'd like to at least be 150 by then (I'm 161 right now - up 2 lbs from vacay, was 159 two weeks ago).

    22 pounds before Christmas... which puts me in the 100's. :) I would love to lose more than that but about a pound a week would be consistent with what I am losing now and puts me nowhere near goal so is hopefully something that can continue for a while.

    I would like to lose 17 pounds by Christmas. That would put me at 139, or rather in the 130's by Christmas. Wow...that would be a dream! It would put me 14 pounds to my official goal. Guess I gotta get my butt moving!!! Haha!

    OK count me in! I just got started this week and I set my goal for 2 pounds a week but its showing my "if every day was like today" to be losing .5 a day. So Hopefully I can bump that up to one a day and hit target of losing 19 pounds by Christmas. That will put me two under my goal which will be enough to deserve a reward of just one piece of Christmas fudge :)
    Im on boord and WILL lose 19 pounds by Christmas! Then I can start the first of the year on maintenance :)

    Since I'm being realistic...I would like to lose 12lbs by Christmas. That would put me at the weight I was the day I found out I was pregnant. My end goal is still 15lbs beyond that but I've got to start somewhere!

    I would love to lose 20 lbs by Christmas. :) I have never "lost" before, only "gained" so it would be a huge victory for me if I could lose that much!!! :)

    I'd like to lose 17 by Christams, which would get me to my (first) goal weight.
