    Don't have 40 but need to have some motivation. Restarted about 6 weeks ago but just found I am very hormone deficient last Friday started on all kinds of meds including D3 and Thyroid. I am doing careful tracking and 25 min aerobics daily to start off. I lost down to GW over 2 years ago and let myself get sloppy with bad habits so am back on track.

    Starting weight 176.5
    Current weight 173
    Goal weight 150.0

    In between March-beginning of June, I lost 40 lb. Then I slacked off from the calorie counting, fortunately, I didn't gain any weight! So I am ready to lose 40 more!!!

    Starting weight 180

    Week 1 (really 5 days, switched from Monday to Friday)

    179: -1lb
    -1/2 inch around neck, -1 1/2 inch around waist, - 0 inch around hips (not sure what went wrong with hips, could be different spot, found one spot to make sure it's same each week)

    I've been looking for a challenge that was kicking off, so this is perfect! Looks like a lot of us have some similar stats and goals, so I'm really looking forward to making some friends and losing some weight!

    I have recently hit a very slow phase....need support and help. I am motivated, exercising, tracking calories, but body is adjusting to weight loss. I keep the vision of being able to fit into cute Disney outfits as a reward! Let's go! All support appreciated.

    I would love to do this! I have so much trouble with sticktoitiveness. Because of health, I have difficulty exercising, besides slow and careful. Steroids and others do blow me up. I call that my grazing times. Graze all day long! Lets do this!

    I already did my first week but I suppose if it's 4 months and you want it for the end of the year we really should start first Monday in September?

    OP can you please clarify this for us as several have already entered our week one while others are still joining? Additionally once we start how would you like us to do this simply entering numbers and put any conversation at the end of your post so you make one post a week to keep it neat or multiple posts? We will need some guidelines I think as great as this challenge is since there are so many people interested in joining.

    Spreadsheets can be added to the thread, we can put everyones name on it and they can add their weight to it each week.

    We can also have everyone give suggestions for weekly challenge ideas (ie water intake, exercise goals, etc) and rotate through them to give weekly things to focus on.
