    I would love to join the group. My starting weight is 197. I am going to start running and being active to loose the weight. Currently, I am on an Atkins style diet. I am pre-diabetic so monitoring my blood sugar while eating lean meats and veggies has been successful. Here we go - I will weigh in on Friday!

    I would like to join. My current weight is 190 and my goal for christmas is 150. This would put me very close (if not at) my final goal weight.

    My plan is to work out 6 days a week for at least 1 hour or more, stay at or below calorie goal and drink 100oz of water a day. I just gave up my Dr Pepper habit a few days ago and do not plan to drink them again.

    Count me in!! I'm currently at 218.2 and would LOVE to lose 40lbs by Christmas. I plan to lose the weight by exercising before work about 20mins, drinking 8 or more glasses or water a day, sticking to my 1200 cals a day and also exercising about 1hr at night. Like some of you, I'm already in another Christmas challenge but this will give me even more motivation. I usually weigh in on Mondays but I will try my hardest to remember to log it for this challenge on Fridays. Good luck everyone and I hope everyone has a great Labor Day today!! :-)

    Count me in! I need to step up my game and get my motivation back so joining a group will be good for me...Ive got my eye on a nice dress for xmas and they dont do it in my current size!!

    My current weight is 205 and my goal weight is somewhere around 126 (im 5ft 3in)

    I have just brought the polar FT7 hrm, I plan to do more walking, and start the 30ds again as I didnt get too far last time (knees)
    I need to drink more water!!! and snack on fruit/nuts rather than reaching for naughty treats that make me feel bloated and guilty anyway!

    Feel free to add me ...good luck everyone x

    Perfect for me! My goal was originally to lose around 25-30lbs but if I lose 40 then I have some leeway for the inevitable Christmas time chub :)
    Starting: 148
    Goal: 108

    Going to cycle an hour a day, 2 litres of water a day, alternating lower and higher calorie days, not binging on the weekend!

    Good luck everyone!

    Good day today. I did cave and have one chocolate chip cookie, but I took a good walk with Evelyn (baby) & Bosco (dog) this afternoon, and am still well below my allotted calories. :)

    I hope everyone else had a great day, too!
