    I usually never even look at that number...but I'm in! Great idea!!!

    {{I just updated my status that I will not step on my scale until after a 5K I am doing on March 31...so I will extend that time to 35 days from now}}

    I like this idea. Sometimes, when I diet, I feel like im on it alot longer then I actually am. This may help me realize its only been a few weeks. Thank you.

    This is a great idea! I haven't seen an ounce come off in 2 weeks! I've been going to the gym a minimum of 3 times a week and usually right under my calorie goal minus a few days here and there. I am totally in!!! I will not get back on the scale for 35 days or April 5th. I'm going on a cruise April 16-20 so I really hope to be at my projected weight. Stay tuned!!!!
    Thank you!!!!!

    My projected weight should be 154.1

    Yep, I'll do it, too!

    I'm about exactly at the weight it projected for me 5 weeks ago...and I gave up MY SCALE for Lent...I might have to break that one in order to check my progress with this challenge - but I have never observed Lent anyway....I gave it up because I was becoming obsessed! :D

    So, in 5 weeks my projected weight loss should be: 140.8 lbs.

    Putting it on my calendar now!

    What a fabulous idea! Thanks!

    I'm in. Last night it said 172.9, but I'm hoping to be under that. The past week has been difficult with fighting an illness and not being able to exercise, but today is a new day and a new month, so fresh start here I come.

    I find truth in this quote...I believe its from Nike, but I could be wrong.

    "It takes 4 weeks for you to notice your body changing, 8 weeks for your friends and 12 weeks for the rest of the world. Give it 12 weeks. Don't quit."

    Just to be clear...this challenge is intended to bring focus and success. This is not meant to "let you off the hook" in 5 weeks. The proof will be in the pudding. I am overwhelmed with the response! Let's kill it people!

    I got 145, which happens to be my goal weight also! We'll see though, I didn't eat that much today because I've been fighting this stomach bug.:smile:

    Love this! My current weight is 206. My projected weight in 5 weeks is 197. I can't wait to get into the "Onederland" but it seems like a shimmering light that keeps getting farther away the harder I try. So we shall see!
