Halloween Weight Loss Challenge

This is a weight loss challenge. This is a long weight loss challenge (7 months). I have seen other challenges help others stay with their diet. But, I need some motivation here, and maybe this will help me, and maybe you too. Anyone can join, we post weekly! I post Saturday, but any day is okay. Good luck to everyone!

It will start today 4/1, and end on Halloween Eve. I think that’s good timing right before the Holiday stuff begins.

    I like this idea! Today was the one morning I didn't weigh myself, though, but I'll say 140. My weight has been creeping back up, and I have to get back under control. (Health issues including Type 2 Diabetes.)

    Posted too quickly! Did we lose the Edit function?

    I would like to be 110 by Halloween, but I'm not sure this is realistic given my stats.

    One positive thing I'll do today is a 10 minute minimum walk.

    Happy Easter to those who celebrate!

    I am so down for this. I don’t know how many Halloween costumes ideas I’ve had and then not done because I’m self conscious of my mid-section.

    SW-167
    CW-162
    GW-145ish. More focused on appearance/confidence than the actual scale number.

    How's everyone's day going so far? I actually got my butt out of bed and worked out before work. I need to make that a habit.

    213 now if I can get to 180 then I would be happy.

    Not sure my goal weight, hoping it's 150-160 but won't know until I get there.

    I just need som motivation , but i have to say why i need to lose weight to know exactly why I’m doing this because sometimes I forget why I’m doing it and fail . Okay , I wanna lose weight to be really healthy and have no problems in my older age , I wanna dress the way that I desire (bikini, dress, short sleeve shirts ,etc) and feel myself secure , I wanna make new friends, I wanna start loving myself and caring myself inside and outside .

    CW: 126
    GW: 102
