HOT 4 HALLOWEEN!!!!!

Options
Halloween will be here in about 5 1/2 short months and I for once want to look AMAZING in a costume. Who wants to join me in a challenge to get fit(HAWT) by Halloween? I have a pic that I would like to use as a before and I will take my "after" in my costume on October 31st. Join Me!

KariOrtiz suggested that we add a challenge to keep us on track. My challenge would be to drink water everyday, consume smaller portions, and lose about 5-7lbs a month.

Highest Weight: 252
Start Weight: 225
Current Weight: 224
This Challenge Goal Weight: 194
Ultimate Goal Weight: 160
«134

    I'm starting today (well, actually I started Thursday) we could work together for a challenge or do individual challenges. I wish to lose 30lbs by October 31st myself. I'm working on smaller portions for food, and exercising at least 30-60min EVERYDAY. I did pretty good last week. We'll have to put our heads together for the small goals because we all have different fitness levels/needs. I'm looking about about 5lbs loss a month.

    Ok.. we should set up a weigh in day perhaps.. maybe weekly challenges such as smaller portions, drinking more water, burning a certain amount of calories during a week through exercise.. idk lol.. I like your challenge because its almost 6 months long!! Maybe we should post our current weight, our start weight here on mfp, our highest weight, our goal weight and precise goal weight for this particular challenge... I'll start..

    Highest Weight: 229
    Start Weight: 220
    Current Weight: 202.8
    This Challenge Goal Weight: 170
    Ultimate Goal Weight: 140

    I need to lose it. I need to!

    Exactly why I chose Halloween. Six months is neither a fast, or super long challenge. It's enough to lose a good amount of weight in a good amount of time. I like your idea and will add it to the intro.

    OMG, I want to be Wonderwoman as well. And NOT the Plus Size version either (which is hideous lol) so I will get in that costume!

    I LOVE this idea for a challenge... I've never got to wear a sexy halloween costume, even as a teenager.. always have been self concious on how I looked. I would love to wear a sexy costume.. lol.. let's make this challenge a success, right!!

    This sounds like a really fun goal. And there are sooo many costumes to choose from. I am going to do some browsing.

    If I could lose 30lbs by Halloween I would be at my goal weight and my heart would thank me.

    My mini challenges will be to spend more time outdoors, work up to being able to exercise 45 min straight - six days per week and lift 3 times per week.

    I always wear some sort of sexy costume for Halloween, but I've also always got on some spanx or something and I'm desperately trying to cover something up. This year, I'm gonna slut it up lol

    Highest weight: 170
    Start weight: 168
    Current weight: 148
    Challenge goal weight: 130
    Ultimate goal weight: 125

    Btw-- I'm 5'3" :)

    Honestly, 125-130 I'm not too worried about the exact number when I get down there, as long as I'm looking good and my body fat % is low, but let me tell you. If I'm as small as I hope to be, I'm gonna be ridiculous! I've always wanted to do Wonder Woman as well, but never thought I could rock the booty shorts...this year, I WANT TO ROCK BOOTY SHORTS!

Of course then I looked around and made sure my husband had left for work lol.

    Haha a couple years ago my boobs were super out for my costume and my bf was like "wow, you've kinda got a lot of boobs showing" and my response was "I get to be slutty on Halloween, it's in the rules of being a girl!" He has come to terms with it lol

    Count me in! It's been a few years since I've been able to wear a "sexy" costume. And around that time I'll hopefully be near my goal weight, so I am SO in!

    Starting weight: 225
    Current Weight: 216
    Goal Weight: 150

    If I stay on track, hopefully be around 166 if not more :) by Halloween
