20 lbs before Christmas

I would love to join! I turn 30 Dec 29th and I'd like to see a difference for my party!

I keep telling people if I have to turn 30 I want to at least look good doing it! ;-) haha, the only down side is I bought the most beautiful dress for it this summer... hopefully it won't fit by then!

I just started this week - I started at 222 and I'd love to see ONEderland for Christmas, but I don't want to go too quickly that it'll come back on. Plus I'm realistic that after Dec 17 when I head home to my family, 5 of what I lose will probably creep back on. I'm actually ok with that as long as I get back on track Jan 1! It's about long term change and I'll only accomplish that if I allow myself to also enjoy things like the holidays!

I'm in!!

I'd love to lose 20lbs by Christmas. To keep my expectations realistic though, I want to lose at least 11lbs by then and if luck is on my side I just might lose 20lbs. Losing 11 lbs put me at roughly 1lb per week.

My stats:
Age - 5'4.5"
CW - 176.6lbs
Goal Range by Christmas - 165.6 to 156.6lbs***

***I will be excited to be anywhere in this range on Christmas Day. The closer I get to 156lbs the happier I'll be.

What I'll be doing:

X-TrainFit @Home DVD 90 Day Program (lots of strength training and some cardio)

---

Currently on Day 5 of Week 4 (started this workout at 181lbs, so about 4.4lbs lost so far)

---

This program has a workout for everyday of the week and is mostly strength training

Aiming to hit 10,000 steps a day

---

I realize this one isn't going to be realistic everyday so I have a minimum of at least 5000 steps

I'm in!

I'm in guys! Would love to see 20 off by Christmas!

I am in... however not sure if 20 lbs is realistic. 10-15 at most is what I would expect to lose based on how my weight loss has been thus far.

SW: 193.4
CW: 172
GW (by 12/25/14): 152-162

I will aim to walk at least 3 miles 3-5X a week and will also be starting the MuTu System to attempt to close my Diastasis Recti.

I'm in, I need to lose some fat anyway X3

I'm totally in!! Though I'm not so sure what I weigh now 0_o between 170-165 (yup, I fluctuate by 5 pounds at any given time >_<) Lets just go with the high number....

SW:285
CW:170
GW:145-150

By Christmas? That gives us about 11 weeks.
I'll shoot for that!

Gonna LOG on here, get accountability partners to shame me into it if I slack off (said tongue in cheek), and not go more than 3 days MAX without exercise of some sort, sick, injured, or healthy.

Me too
