    I love participating in challenges for the extra motivation, and this long term would be good for me to keep my focus. I'm definitely looking forward to shedding some pounds by Christmas :)

    Hope I am not too late to join. My weight loss has stalled this will help me refocus, if I reach my goal I will be below 100kg for the first time in over 20 years. I will still have some work after Christmas however that will be a real achievement.

    Good morning! My information has been added to the spreadsheet already but I just realized that I made a huge error! My BMI should be listed at 38, NOT 48. Thank you again for putting this all together! I"m looking forward to starting officially. I weighed in this morning & I was 219.4! Whoo-hoo!!!!

    Hi! I'm a little confused about the spreadsheet. Are you going to share it with us through Google docs so we can put our own info in each week? I finally figured out how to pull it up and it told me to ask the owner to share for me to enter info. It would be an awful lot of work for you to enter all of our weights each week!
    I am happy this morning that the weight I lost over the weekend is "real". When I got on the scale yesterday and was down 3 pounds, I was afraid I would go back up today, but the scale is the same! I had finally broken the 200lb mark (weight is 199.8) and would really hate to see it go back up!! I know it is psychological, but seeing a 1 instead of a 2 for that first number is huge to me!

    I was in the last challenge and actually gained. I didn't have the motivation I guess:embarassed: As of 8/4 I've restarted, unfortunately at my heaviest ever. My husband is cutting back too so that should be of some help or at least not a hinderence:tongue:

    So glad your husband is doing it with you! I think it makes a difference when our family members join us. I talked to my sister last night about what I am doing and she is thinking about joining MFP also, and maybe even this challenge. These boards are great, but setting goals with your family can really keep you motivated. Good luck!

    "Onederland" is a wonderful place to be. Welcome, stay awhile, stay for good.

    First time ever doing a challenge. So let's hope this works!

    My goal is really to be more 'fit' (able to jump buildings in a single bound, faster than a train, you know, be my own superhero.) rather than tied to a specific number.

    CW: 141
    GW: 126
    BMI: 22.6

    I'm not sure if I'm being too aggressive in my GW. I was fit at 126...but, well, time will tell if after a decade 126 is still a number that means being fit for me.

    Congratulations on reaching Onederland!! It's a wonderful feeling!

    I will unlock the spreadsheet when it is ready. You will be able to enter the weight yourself after I unlock it.
