    I'm guessin Starting Weight ? Current Weight? Goal Wieght?

    Starting (AGAIN!)
    May 15 148 lbs

    Current:
    June 8 142 Lbs

    Goal Weight
    August 1st - 122 lbs

    (i'm 5'2 and that allegedly is my 'ideal' weight)

    How can we subscribe to this thread so it doesnt get lost in the shuffle?

    Not to put a damper on your goal, but that's close to 4 lbs a week, especially if you are talking by the beginning of August. Usually the high end loss is 2 lbs a week, maybe 2.5 - 3 if you have a lot to lose. Having a goal is great, I'm just saying make sure it's attainable.

    I am aware of this also... I just joined (ladymoonlite I sent you a message as well) and I want to lose 30 by the END of August.

    Whether our goal is pretty aggressive or not, I still think we should try it!!!
