edited September 22 in Introduce Yourself
They say that the average person gains 7 lbs between Thanksgiving and New Years. 7 LBS!

I'm thinking that we all buck the system and drop 7lbs by Christmas. Anyone down for the challenge?

    I'm in too! This is going to be really tough for me though, cause I"ve been having a hard time lately motivating myself!!! I just like sweets so much! But I would love to give it a try!
    So starting today?

    I'm in too... and that 7 pounds normally sticks to me like glue for a few months so I'm all up for not gaining it at all!

    I think I need to set a new Christmas goal because I am already almost at my Christmas goal I have set. I'll try this...236.2 is my starting weight. Goal 229.2 by Christmas!

    My goal is 10 pounds by NYE and NO FAST FOOD! That alone should be worth 7 pounds :)

    Awesome! Let's go for it! If we do it together we can encourage each other. My self motivation lately has STUNK but, I'm gonna master this. It's 7 lbs... it's 4 1/2 weeks. So, that's 1.6 lbs per week. I'm a Wednesday weigh in so, I'll post where I'm at tomorrow.

    Thanks all!

    Still sitting at 145, but with me doing Insanity again, I should see a loss next week. I'm going to "Dig Deeper"

    I have been away for several months and now I am paying for it. Hopefully this will assist with establishing momentum going into the New Year. I weighed myself this morning and I was at 300.6. The first time I have ever been over 300 officially. Definitely a wake up call.

    I am in and good luck to all!
