    I am definitely in and will send you a friend request. I typically weigh in on Saturdays. Are you okay with me weighing in on Saturdays instead of Monday?

    Thanks for joining in! Its fine to weigh in on Saturday if this is your day but you can delay your post until Monday, unless you don't have the time.

    Here is my starting weight, listed below. I calculated my weight loss goal as 4.275. I know that should be rounded down but I would prefer to round up, especially since October is a longer month. So, I am setting my weight loss goal for this challenge as 5 pounds.

    Good luck to everyone here. May we all meet or exeed our expectations, safely.

    My 4% is 8.7lbs. SW is 218.6 lbs

    Need to make a correction: This was by Friday morning weight...However, by Satuday morning (10/01/11), I had actually gained alot of weight. i was 224.4...I just knew this was wrong because i have never gained that type of weight overnight and plus, I didn't eat like that to warrant that type of gain. Well, it wrong correct and I have been struggling to get it back off. With that being said, my new 4% is 8.96 or 9 lbs and my SW is 224.4.

    Hey everyone,

    This week I've lost 1.6lbs = 0.7% lost, not as much as I hoped but what I expected but its a loss nevertheless. I'm just 2lbs away from being under 100kg so this week I'm going to do my best to get rid of that milestone. :smile:

    Hey, nice loss. The calculation is (weight loss) x 100/ (starting weight). You can see my 1st post for the example if you need.
