edited September 25 in Fitness and Exercise
My goal is to lose 40 more pounds by August 13th, soooooooooooo, I am hoping to have some people join me! So, I got a new challenge for ya: LET'S LOSE 40 POUNDS BY AUGUST 13TH! This is a very healthy date, just a little over 2 pounds a week. I don't care how you do it, as long as you lose it! If you lose it before 8/13 that is wonderful, but I want the deadline to be 8/13. You can just diet to lose it, you can diet AND exercise to lose it (which is easier and recommended), however you want to do it is fine with me. We should report our results once a week either Sunday or Wednesday and all you have to report is your starting weight, current weight and goal weight (you can also report any exercise if you wish for that week). i want some people to really join me in this journey and us to support each other along the way! What do ya say??? Are you in?

    Sounds good! Count me in. For my optimum healthy weight, 40 pounds total is about what I need to lose. Cheers! (that's a tall glass of water of course) :drinker:

    Count me in... I leave for Vacation that day. 40lbs actually puts me close to my goal weight too. 2.2lbs a week is a tough goal though. I would really be very happy with 30lbs on that date
