    I'm in! I'm also on the "IT Health Challenge" at work. (Losing BMI percentage instead of weight). IT employees who wanted to join put in $20 each, so whoever wins, gets the pot. I've been trying to lose weight for sooooo long (been up and down) that I'll take all the motivation I can get. My ticker says 5 lbs so far - hopefully I can get to at least 13 by 10/26.

    GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!

    :)

    I've packed an incredibly healthy lunch, along with filling snacks so I can avoid the free lunch at work today that involves lots of chips and cookies! =)

    This will probably be a doable goal for someone that has a lot of weight to lose, but for those that are already close to their ideal body weight it's just asking for failure.

    I just started MFP on Tuesday. I'm in.

    Thursday 9/26, 180
    Tuesday 10/1, 178
    Tuesday 10/8, 176
    Tuesday 10/15, 174
    Tuesday 10/22, 172

    Goal: Saturday 10/26 172

    And that will be just 24 lbs away from my goal weight of 148. I'm 5"9 and big boned :ohwell: so 148 would look very healthy :smile:
