    I'd like to start late--I only joined the site a couple days ago, but I am shooting for 2 pounds a week and there are 2 weeks left, so who knows maybe I can lose 5 if I do well... sounds like fun to try anyway...

    Last weigh-in (early October): 252 lbs
    Current Weight: Unknown (maybe weigh-in tomorrow)
    Goal Weight for month of October: 247 lbs

    ==Weigh-Ins==

    *Only pumpkin food I know how to make is pumpkin pie, and by finding ingredients with low sugar substitutes I would think it could be reasonably healthy...

    I'm going to try to lose 5 but I have doubts....this worked great for me over several months but as I'm in my "home stretch" my loss has slowed down to about a pound a week and I wonder if I'm able to lose 5 lbs in a month but I will try! :)
