I know that this time of year is the hardest to lose weight! But lets challenge ourselves to lose at least 5lbs before the new year!! Keep the motivation adn encouragemen alive! This time of year is tough and if can get the through the holidays with a 5lbs or more weight loss I think that is an achievement! Mark your current weight in this thread to keep motivated. Then on January 1, 2012 everyone come back to this thread and mark your current weight as of that Jan 1!

Sure, I will join if you like. It won't be very impressive though! I am currently at 149.5, and since I don't have much to lose, my goal is 1/2 pound per week. If I stay on track I will be at 148 on New Year's.Five pounds in 19 days is not a realistic goal for me. Good luck to you though!

Are you anticipating having trouble losing over the holidays? I was looking back at my data and even the weeks where I went way over (like 1,000 calories over for the week) I still lost steadily. Hopefully that holds true for Christmas.0 -
I would love to join... I definately need some encouragement. I want to start 2012 under 200lbs. I am at 204.4 as of this morning and I just can't seem to get past 203.2 (I was there on Saturday). I am proud of what I have done thus far, I haven't weighed this low since I graduated high school in 2004. Again, all the encouragement is helpful. 0

I am in. Thinking 5lbs is un realistic is doubting yourself. 0

This was my plan and I'm already at 3lbs lost! I'm 211.5 right now, I'd love to be in the two-single digits by New Year. I'm aiming for 209 or less!0

I only have another 9 pounds to lose. There is no way I can lose 1/4 pound PER DAY without drastic, unhealthy measures.I am in. Thinking 5lbs is un realistic is doubting yourself.0 -

I'm in too! Just started up my account yesterday. I currently am at 141lbs. Striving for 1lb, 1/2 per week so 5lbs may be a bit much, but will definitely give it a try. Especially since my kids and I have plans to do some xmas baking for company on Xmas day, and to give out as gifts! Hmm. Some willpower will be needed here!!! LOL Definitely up for a challenge though!0

I'm in!! I've been losing weight this whole year, but then here within the last month I started to plateau...so on Sunday I bought Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and let me tell you - I'm on day 3 and I feel amazing and I hurt SO GOOD! I'm pretty confident I can get 5 extra lbs off my belt before the New Year!!! Good Luck EVERYONE!!0
