    This sounds like a great challenge. I moved in with my bf a few months back & the weight has piled on! He eats sooo much & doesnt gain a single pound! (men....! Lol) but im determined to get the weight off, is 14lbs by xmas too much or is it do-able?
  • Tashie, I would think that is doable. I would be happy with 14 also :) So I'm in...

    Current: 171.5
    Goal: 145

    Hey I wanted to point out a post for you guys that I found really interesting/inspiring turbojanem started a topic about feeling like 5 or 10 lbs. wasn't much. She then suggested that you go to the store and pick up the pet food bag that is closest to you weight loss and carry it around for 30 minutes, NOT setting it down at all, and see how much difference it makes.
  • Start weight- 201.4
    Current weight- 199.0

    Down 2.4lbs Not to bad.
  • Well I stayed the same....must be all the muscle I am building. Yep that is what I will think.

    Total: 5 pounds down!!!

    Good luck to everyone in this challenge!

    Only 1 pound loss. :ohwell:
    I find it very upsetting because I worked very hard last week and was very good over the weekend. I guess I'll work at remembering this is a new week. :smile:

    Ok, my Monday weigh in: 167.6
    While this is a drop from last Monday (minimal), I actually weighed in about Thursday and was down to 167.1 so I am really up 0.5 lbs. Oh well, I knew it was coming. I didn't do very well this weekend and my TOM is right around the corner. This is a new week!

    I'm only down one pound, and I'm bummed! I worked sooo hard, and I only lost one pound! I am really discouraged.

    Don't give up! Keep doing what you're doing and I'm sure it will pay off next week!

    down 1 lb from last week... happy with that considering I've had a bad cold. Congrats to everyone else... this thread is awesome!
  • Dreading getting on the scale tomorrow...I know I'm supposed to weigh in today. But I think I want to get in one last gym session like I did last week.

    I REALLY need to start kicking it up a knotch

    I know I've asked this before but who has/is doing the 30 day shred?

    I think I need to pick that up just to have more motivation outside the gym.

    Weight on 10/18/10 (start of 30 by Christmas challenge): 233.2
    Weight today (10/25/10): 232
    Christmas goal: 213.2
    Total weight lost so far: 1.2 lbs

    My weight is up a bit because of TOM, not exercising as much as I should have over the weekend, and drinking on Saturday night. I expect a big drop by next Monday.

    Starting weight: 167
    Current weight: 162

    Five pounds lost this week. 1/6 of the way there!
    I'm hoping to stay motivated this week...school is getting busier and I feel like I have less and less time to hit the gym.
    I'm also dreading Halloween, which is just around the corner because of all the sweet treats (alcoholic treats as well) lol.

    But, great job everybody. Let's keep it up!

    Checking in: Wt on 10/28= 190 lbs
    Wt on 10/22=188 lbs.


    I was amazed. went out of town, dint eat so great, but drank lotsof water and walked a ton plus did my 35 minutess on treadclimber before leaving town. I did 45 minutes two other times during the week, that helped.(got a lil endorphin rush around 30 minutes, couldnt stop!)

    YEAH!!!!

    Everybody keep up the great work!!!
