    I want in too. I too have a dress to fit in :happy: . Ideally, I would love to loose 10 pounds, but one pound per week is a very unrealistic goal for me, so 5-6 pounds would be amazing.

    9 weeks to go. Let's get them off!!!

    I'd be overjoyed if I could hit my goal by X-Mas, but I'm not sure if it can happen. I'm currently 128 and my goal weight is 118. 10 pounds seems like a lot to get off in 9 weeks, but we'll see. My more realistic goal will be to lose 9lbs, so I'll be right at the brink of my goal hopefully.

    I'd like to lose about 15lbs but if I do manage to lose anything with my luck it'd be about 5-10lbs but I wouldn't complain rather be that then than what I weigh now! Oh and too be able to run for more than a minute without getting out of breathe would be a bonus! :laugh:

    I'm hoping to lose between 1-2 pounds a week, 18 pounds by Christmas would be great, but il settle for a more realistic goal of 10lbs!
    Good luck everyone!!

    I shooting for 15 lbs. If I track on weekends and not give in to convenience I think this is doable.

    I would like to be down to 180 by Christmas! So far I have lost 22 lbs...so in order to reach my goal by Christmas I would have to lose 2 lbs a week!

    Realistic goal:20 lbs
    Fantasy goal: 20 lbs :D

    Let's do this people! And I just want to add that thanksgiving is the midway point between now and then and you really shouldn't have to deprive yourself on that day, just be conscious of your serving size! You can have your turkey and still lose weight. Just be smart about it! Can't wait to see how everyone does. Add me if you like!

    I'm in!! ...

    Would love to lose another 10lbs for Christmas. Lost focus a bit recently so a goal for Christmas would be good.

    Feel free to add me as a friend, especially UK members. My diary is open to friends and I'm always looking for some inspiration :)

    I want in. I feel like I try so hard, then fall off. When I don't lose weight right away, I start to feel "why bother". or it isn't working, I feel kinda lost.

    Well christmas is neally upon us again, and I'm still not a target weight. I've got to lose around 17 pounds. I must get to target by then, anyone want to join me.

    As next year I want to be able to say "I NO LONGER HAVE A WEIGHT PROBLEM ".

    To get fit and tone more,

    and maintain my weight..

    That would be my final goal...nice

    How much do you want to lose by Christmas, or is there a particular dress you want to get into, or trousers ?


    I am starting to become strict and determine now for the past two weeks, been logging in on MFP and I am hoping to become my goal weight by christmas.. So I am with you!!! =)

    20 pounds would be awesome, but I would have to really stick with it to get that result!

    I'm definitely in! I have ~35lbs. to lose- which I know is a lot-but its going to happen!
    I'm literally going to work my *kitten* off and stick with the motto "Abs are made in the kitchen"

    Feel free to add me as a friend yall- I cant promise I'll post everyday, but I can promise to always be positive and help motivate if I can!

    Nine pounds in nine weeks would be a dream for me, and it's theoretically doable if I can get off this pleateau. Heck, if I can just lose four I'll be below 180 for the first time in far too long.

    Fantasy goal: 10 lbs
    Realistic goal: anything

    But on the plus side, the dress I wear almost every year for Christmas is gone to Goodwill in the "I will never be this size again" bag. :)

    I'd love to join in!

    I'd like to be completely to the end of my weight loss journey by Christmas (heck, by Halloween :wink: ), but will set a goal of 15 lbs. I just recently moved to another state and will have my first trip home the day after Christmas. I'd love to surprise everyone with a 30 lb loss since seeing them last. I have 50 lbs total I'd like to lose but would be very happy to unveil an over-half-way loss; especially since no one at home knows I'm trying.

    What are some of the ideas everyone has for meeting their Christmas goal?

    I would love to be at 155 by Christmas, so that will be 13 lbs. I would love to be able to fit into my favorite old jeans that no longer fit.

    I'm in! I'd love to lose 18lbs by Christmas! Since we have 9weeks, that'd be 2lbs a week. It'd be hard but possible! Here's to trying real hard!!!

    I'm in! I'd love to lose about 20lbs by Christmas. That would be an awesome present. Preferably by the 16th of December as that's my anniversary. Would love to make my husband's mouth drop in a new piece of lingerie! LOL :drinker: :blushing: :love: :smooched:
