    I honestly don't know how I lost weight this week. I majorly messed up a bunch of times. But I got back on track and kept exercising. I think running and weight lifting has made a big difference.

    No change for me this week. It was kind of expected. Went to a going away BBQ and had a great time eating great food. For anyone not losing, keep at it.

    Total challenge weight loss so far: -5.6

    I'm losing about 0.7 lbs a week which is pretty far off from what this challenge needed to be. I'm going to readjust my goal and try for a total of 20 lbs lost by Christmas so I can remain realistic. I'll still be pretty happy to be in the low 160s by Christmas!

    Way to go!!! This is a healthy decision!!! And you are doing well. Every week some down is on your way to your goal.

    Hey guys,
    Everyone is invited to join me in this challenge, no matter your current weight. I believe we can do this.
    Starting weight (SW): 175pounds
    Goal Weight (GW): 125 to 130 pounds.
    Please put down your statistics( let's keep it simple)
    And at the end of each week ( preferable on a Sunday tell us how much you loss).
    Can't wait to start this. So excited.

    Men, I would have loved to join but I just joined MFP and stumbled on this discussion but wouldn't it be too late for me to make 40lbs loss by December?

    40 lbs. over the next 94 days is aggressive, but achievable if you really put yourself into it! You'll need to lose about 3 lbs./week. Healthy weight loss is normally pegged at 2 lbs./week.

    If you are really committed, I say "go for it!" But no one here will criticize you for making a goal that is more in keeping with your late entry into the challenge.

    Thanks! I will try my best, obviously keeping my daily calorie limit and working out at least 4x a day. Bc am just starting, i know I will probably lose more now and then it would slow down later

    But it's still an active thread since there are 3 months left until Christmas. People have been joining and others have been dropping out since the challenge started August 1. No rules here, just friendly encouragement.

    Welcome fitbisi! Good luck with whatever success you have in the next 3 months.

    I haven't posted here in a while. I normally forget to because I've been using the google spreadsheet someone made to track my loss for the challenge. But I would like to say well done to everyone so far! Everyone is doing great! Keep it up!

    I am also late to the game, but I got back on MFP on 8/15 with the goal of losing 40lbs by Christmas so I'd like to join in! I'm less set on that amount than I was at the beginning, but I'd love encourage and be encouraged by others pursuing the same goal!
