    im in, just got my blood-work done at the drs to see if there is anything medically off with me, im not losing as i should be and easily gain back 5-10 lbs at a time that take months to come off. i do not over indulge often and my calories are set at 1600. Dr says I should definitely be losing based on my activity and such. This is the new jump-start I need to get re-motivated.
    cw 195
    challenge gw 182

    I'm having the same problem, and all my blood work came back fine.

    I'm in. Based on how slowly I've been loosing for the last few months I'd be thrilled to be down 10lbs at the end of November. I'd throw a party if I was down 16. ;)

    Current weight -290
    Goal weight - 274 (2lbs a week, might as well aim high)

    I keep my calories daily between 1500-1800. I'm walking 3 miles a day and doing yoga several times a week. On top of that I do hand weights for my arms.

    My doctor and my nutritionist are baffled why the weight won't come off. My pattern has been drop 3lbs one week then the scale won't move at all for 3 weeks. This went on all summer long while I kept my calories at 1400 a day. I upped the calories thinking that would jump start weight loss but it hasn't.

    Looking forward to posting with all of y'all and maybe getting some new ideas to try for myself. :)

    I love the Fall, but with it come all sorts of fall goodies to indulge in--and it sure isn't great for the weight loss enthusiast! So I prepose a Fall Weight Loss Challenge beginning October 1 and ending November 30th! Let's ease into the Holidays with a fresh new jumpstart!

    61 days and counting! Anyone game?

    If you are, just reply to this discussion board with your goal weight loss for the next two months and check in every Monday with your weeks results. Let's encourage one another on and check in every week with how we are all doing!

    I'll go first:

    Current weight: 143.8
    Goal loss per week is at 2lbs totalling 8 weeks= 16 lbs goal loss
    Goal weight by November 31=127.8

    Thanks for coming along! I can't wait to hear how everyone does!

    "This is the beginning of a new day. You have been given this day to use as you will. You can waste it or use it for good. What you do today is important because you are exchanging a day of your life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever. In its place is something that you have left behind...Let it be something good." AUTHOR UNKNOWN

    @hillcrestbaby - I love your enthusiasm but wanted to warn you that when you have as little weight to lose as you do, a goal of 2 pounds per week is very aggressive.

    I'm in! I'm weighing next on Monday, so I'll start with that weight and post here then :) At the moment I'm almost completely sedentary because of my knee injury, so it's important to have goals to keep track of.

    Current weight 195, goal for Nov 30th is 180. I've already lost 62 pounds in the last 17 months. Weight loss stalled over the last couple months, but just last week I decided to step it up again and lost 3 pounds, so I'm back on track. It's been about 9 years (and 3 kids!) since I've weighed 180, so I'm super excited that it's back within my reach!

    Hello! Im down to the last five or ten pounds and it is coming off very slowly (which I'm fine with) so my goal is 2-5lbs for the two months. My goals are to track my calories and macros as accurately as I can. Drink two quarts of water a day. Lift weights three times a week, cardio two.

    Yep, I'm game. All in all I don't really have any qualms with my appearance now, but I'd still like to lose a bit more to get more proportional (my legs still bother me a bit).

    Let's see...roughly I'm losing 7 ibs a month, or have been. Assuming I'll start losing more like 6 ibs as I get smaller, I'd aim to lose 12 ibs by the end of November. So...
