    This is a great goal! My long term goal is to lose 80 lbs all together by Aug. 1, 2017. Losing 40 by Xmas Day would be phenomenal.

    I'm in! I want to lose 50 by the time I go home in January, so 40 by Xmas would be great! That puts it at 5 months (if I could get 10 lbs a month that'd be great haha) so let's try this!
    SW: 200.2 lbs / 90.8 kg
    Dec GW: 160 lbs / 72.5 kg

    This group will definitely be important once the holidays begin and EATING becomes expected in large quantities at every meal
