    Thanks Heidi for the clarification!!! I don't know how to lose 40 lbs in 5 weeks--- although sometimes I wish I did! LOL. Glad I posted this was my first challenge. Let's try this again!


    I'm in--- my first challenge too!!!

    Hey Gang!

    Keep those Starting Weigh ins coming in! The list is growing as I type! But I fear I have confused some of you, todays posting is just your Starting Weight (SW), your weight as of today, and your Goal weight (GW) the amount you want to lose by July 4th. This is not week 1. Week 1 weigh in will be next Monday. I just wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page! So today's posting should look like this:

    SW: 173
    GW: 165

    That's all I need!

    Next Monday when you post it should look like this:

    Week 1 (6/6/11)

    SW: 173
    CW: 171
    GW: 165

    That's what I'm hoping to post anyway! Good luck everyone! Check in during the week if you need some encouraging words. I find that when I'm tempted to eat something I shouldn't I'll spend sometime on this site, maybe post on the thread about how I'm feeling and sure enough, someone is out there to give me the "You can do it" speech and not only have I distracted myself from staying out of the refrigerator but I've gotten the support I needed to get through the day. One day at a time is what you have to remember! That's why these mini challenges are so helpful I feel, makes it not quite so overwhelming. Anyhoo, have a great week everyone!

    I'd really like to join in on this. I'm really struggling with getting the 8 lbs I gained over the winter off. This will be great motivation. 8 lbs off by July 4th. Count me in! Thanks for starting this.

    Todays weight 123
    Goal 117

    I'm in - this is my first challenge and I definitely need something to hold me accountable! I eat well M-F and just fall off the wagon when I'm out and about on the weekends.

    I'm in. This is my first challenge as well. It is getting harder to lose as I am getting closer to my goal, so I could use the extra motivation.
