    I'm in! My hope was to already be at my 130 goal weight by now, but I've plateaued at 140 :( hopefully a challenge will get me past the stall. I weigh daily and then take a weekly average to track my weight loss (to help account for daily fluctuation).

    May 1: 140.3
    May 2: 139.6


    May 31 goal: 132 (8 lbs)

    I think my goal is probably a little lofty, but I'm going to try for 2 lbs a week.

    @igotareason I am not the OP, but I would imagine at only 3 days into May, it's fine to join.

    OP: do you have a cut-off date for new challenge members?
