    I'm setting some pretty modest goals just because I know how much I love holiday food! I don't want to miss out on it, but this way I'll be sure to keep it in moderation :)

    Good luck everyone!

    Here are my goals:

    Weigh in day- Wednesday
    Starting Weight- 148.8
    Goal for Labor Day (9/6/11)- 145.0
    Goal for Halloween (10/31/11)- 142.0
    Goal for Thanksgiving (11/24/11)- 139.0
    Goal for Christmas (12/25/11)- 136.0
    Final Challenge Goal for New Years (1/1/12)- 135.0


    These are realistic goals for me. Since I am within 14 pounds of my goal weight, the weight has been coming off really slow. So I don't wont to put goals that I can't meet! Also this will put me at goal by the end of the year!! Good luck everyone!

  • I can't wait. We can all post before and after pictures for new years. I was just about to eat a cup of rice and gravy with my lunch but looking at this post, i broke it down to 1/2 a cup instead. :laugh:

    Before & after pictures, that's a great idea.
  • @gettingthin03: Lol. And I agree about the pictures. I guess I should take my before now, because I don't have one.

    Yesterday my boyfriend wanted to go to this Chinese Buffet place that he loves, and I was like oh no! They have delicious food, but I just kept thinking about how it wouldn't help me here. I had a salad, some fruit and some sushi instead. I love chicken/beef broccoli, but didn't have any. lol.
