    Sounds like a great challenge!!! Its my birthday in 3 weeks and 5 days so have 2 goals!!! Been struggling to exercise since damaging by cocyix 4 weeks ago so swimming is my new found exercise of choice so will try and go 3 times a week and my main challenge is not binge eating at work when I am bored.

    I'd like to join as well. I've decided that I didn't want to wait until the new year like typical. If I'm going to lose weight I'm eventually going to have to deal with healthier habits around the holidays anyway. :huh: So, why wait. I'm up for the challenge see how much I can lose by Christmas. :drinker: Here's to day 1! Great idea. Thanks for starting this. I'm always needing support and accountablility.
    I'm starting to get frustrated because I keep gaining and losing the same 3-4 pounds...so hopefully this will get me on track. I also have a fit bit. My goal has been 10,000 steps but I guess I need to knock it up a notch. :bigsmile: Thanks, Charity

    It is funny that I saw this, because my daughter and I have made a similar pact. So I think this will help me even more. They say the average person gains between Thanksgiving and New Years. I am going to try and stick to my calories allotment but kick up the exercise if I choose to eat extra. It can be done without feeling like you are being deprived.

    Anyways, I am in. and 5 lbs. sounds like a good goal. But my main goal is to keep track of the food and exercise no matter what.

    Thanks guys for all the support and encouragement as well. Emily

    I am so in!!! I have lost 65 lbs so far and have about another 30 lbs to go and it is just not coming off! I have been at this same weight for the past few months. I am getting very frustrated and fearful that the darn holidays are going to make it worse. I need all the motivation and encouragement I can get to get my butt moving and losing again.

    I'll join in! My goal is to lose one more pant size by then. It's going to be really hard to stick to a diet with all of the family visits coming up, so this should keep me honest. Good luck, everyone!
