Looking good for the New Year- challenge!

Options
Hi, I'm Aubrey, I've got about 100lbs give or take to lose. I'm starting a long term challenge...I want to look good next year!! Let's get there together!! We've all got the same goals, let's get together to motivate and push each other through the next 5 months and look damn good to ring in 2012.

Just tell me what your starting weight is, what your number goal and any other goals you'd like to accomplish by 12/31/11 are. We'll do weekly weigh ins and measurements. We could also do monthly goals, monthly pictures, whatever your hearts desire! I really just need some motivation and encouragment, and thought others might too!

Let's weigh in on Fridays, the last Friday being 12.30.11. I will close this group tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon! I'll take your SW numbers today or tomorrow by close of the group!
