I like this idea too! I don't know lbs so will all have to be in kg (2.2kg = 5lbs). Have only been on MFP for afew weeks but have a goal of January 26 for my sister's wedding... don't think I'll get to 68kg by then but will give it a good go!
SW: 77kg
CW (last weigh in on Saturday): 74.3kg
GW for this challenge: 72.1kg
GW: 68kg
Weight in dates:

10 Nov: 73.4
17 Nov: 72.8
23 Nov (early as away this weekend): 72.8 (eeek, now really have to put the work in for the next week!)
1 Dec: 72.6
Weight lost in November: 1.7kg (3.75 lbs)! Started well but tapered off. Am finding the positive in that I didn't actually gain - now just to see if I can keep that up in December (is that wishful thinking?)! Am thankful that this challenge has given me the strength to say "no thank you" to sugary treats in the office (more often than not...).
I am thankful that I have a body that allows me to walk, talk, dance, lift things, type, enjoy normal cuddles and "bouncy cuddles", run, swim, cycle and anything else I might decide to do. I'm very lucky and will continue to appreciate my body for all of the things it allows me to do, not just because it doesn't fit into a certain sized dress or can't do some other things. That said, I'm also thankful I've taken the opportunity to make it stronger, fitter and more healthy - so that it can continue to serve me well for years to come.0 -

Thanks for this. Looking forward to doing again with you all in December!0 -

I apologize that I have'nt been here to give my MFP. My online access was interupted because my cell phone will not hold a charge & my cell phone charger has a short in the wire! I've been walking ( 3 miles RT ) to the public library to get online! I have been doing great with my Food Choices & Exercises, even though I haven't been on MFP for the past few days!
BUT I was tickled to pieces & doing a "Happy Dance" this morning when I weighed in and lost 3 lbs! I met my goal for the month of November ~5 lbs~ I knew my skin & clothes were sLOT looser! I've made smart healthy food decisions & watched my portion sizes over the Thanksgiving holiday!
