    its October, just seen this. Can I join in? What units of weight are you using .. pounds?

    Don't see why not, it's a pretty informal challenge. Jump in and good luck with your weight loss. Pretty sure everyone is using pounds.

    I'm joining up! Lost about 30 lbs between the beginning of July and end of September, but I've hit a plateau, and would really like to lose another 25 lbs to get to my target weight - which I want to reach by Christmas/ New Year.

    I've been told I'm being 'too optimistic' to get down to my target weight (by a very bitchy colleague) - but I'm going to give it a shot. I can do this!

    I'm currently 157 lbs. Sometimes my weight loss feels like it has completely stalled but on average, I'm losing about 1 lb or sometimes 2 lbs per week - which is reasonably steady.

    All being well, I want to weigh in at 132 lbs by New Year's Day. Fingers crossed!

    Oct 18: 297.4 - I'm FINALLY out of the 3's!!! I honestly can't remember the last time I stepped on the scale and the first number was "2". @veezybell you were right...I had a whoosh!!! :D
