    Well, I'm going for the whole shebang... 38 lbs by Christmas. That's 2 lbs per week. I'll aim high and work hard, then be happy with whatever I accomplish.

    If I lose 2 pounds a week I will lose 38 pounds by Christmas ... so I will say my goal is to lose 40 pounds by Christmas. What a present that would be!!!

    I would like to have lost all my baby weight by Christmas. So 52 lbs to go, I have lost 48 so far. Yeah I gained 100 lbs when I was pregnant (alot of swelling and water retention), but I'm very excited that the first 48lbs came off in two weeks!!

    I'm aiming for 30 by the end of the year, so it gives me that extra week after Christmas :smile: I've never lost more than 10lbs ever, so that would be a fantastic (and lighter) way to enter 2011!

    Christmas is a special time of year for me. So I love setting this goal. It's 19 weeks away, eh? Okay. I would like to lose another 25 pounds before Christmas. That's just over 1 pound per week.

    I would love to lose 40 by Christmas..........but to be realistic and take into account some inevitable slip ups during the holidays, I'll say 25-30 would make me ecstatic!!!!

    I will be realistic and say 19 pounds. One pound a week but if I could lose 2 pounds a week and have lost 38 by then I would be really happy.

    I'd like to lose 10 more pounds by Christmas. Fifteen pounds would be better, but 10 is fine. :)

    It'll be a month tomorrow since we set our goals here....how is everyone doing? I have shocked myself in weight loss this month - so I have 8.2lbs to go until my goal weight of 190lbs by December :)

    Let's stay motivated and get to our goals by christmas! We can all do it!

    I committed to 25 lbs on Aug 15, and so far, I'm down exactly 5lbs. Which is about 1.25 lbs/week. At this rate, I'll probably be just short - time to step up my game for that 25lb loss :)

    I said I wanted to lose 20 pounds by Christmas. Perhaps I was being a bit ambitious, but right now I have 17 pounds to go til I'm at 145. Reaching 150 might be a more reasonable goal, but I'll see how it goes. I spent most of the past month in a plateau that just broke last week and now I'm down 2 pounds. Hopefully I can keep the weight loss going. 17 pounds in the next 3 1/2 months is possible if I focus. I'd be happy with 12 pounds though.
