in Motivation and Support
I am interested in starting a group for a Halloween Challenge.

My birthday is on Halloween and I would like to lose 20 lbs by then! Who's with me?

If you're interested then please share your stats with me:

SW, CW, and UGW.

I am currently 220 lbs and would like to hit 200 by Oct 31st, we can so do this! We can update our information on our weigh in days and provide each other with support and motivation so that we look HOT with our costumes! What do you all think?

Please add me :)

Thanks!

    Hello all! I am "new" to MFP, I signed up a while ago but never used the site. Since I feel like I am giving it my all and getting no where - maybe it's time for some support and motivation. I'll be sure to give that support and motivation right back! We could all use a little from time to time.

    Currently I am a full time office manager and a full time student. Thankfully all my classes are online and I don't have to waste a lot of time driving back and forth to school, work and home. I have a treadmill at home along with a dozen work-out DVD's. I do everything in my power to run for at least 30 minutes a day and do some yoga or Pilates. Some days it's only one or the other, but I do try.

    In 2008 I began my weight loss journey. I was at my heaviest, 215 lbs. I joined WW and lost 40 lbs in about 6 months. I lost another 10 lbs on my own after I left WW and then - I just sort of stopped. I have been able to maintain my weight loss of 40 - 50 lbs. I tend to bounce around 5 to 7 lbs - once I see the weight creep back up, I get on it, but then stop again.

    I am ready to get the last 40ish lbs off. To think that in 2 months I could be half-way there! OMG - that would be amazing!

    SW: 169.4 (as of 09/03/13)
    CW: 169.4
    GW: 130

    Good luck to you all!

    I'm in! my b-day is in 2 days, and I wanted to lose 10lbs for it but I don't think the last 2lbs are going to budge by then. No matter, I'm still staying on track and tightening up the diet and exercise even more the past few days since I know I'll want to have a few drinks and treats ;) Halloween is important, too! It's my favorite holiday and I'm finally getting to take my Salem, MA vacation this year at the end of October. It would be awesome to be 20lbs down by then!

    good luck, and anyone can feel free to add me :)
