    Im in. Start weight 208. Goal weight....anything in the one hundreds. I guess at 2 lbs a week that would put me at 196 or better. This challenge sounds great. Looking forward to a Happy Self - Independence ( finally out of the 200s) July 8th celebration. :wink:

    Ok. I've been avoiding this group for the last few days.
    On 27/May I was 234lb so goal on 6/Jul will be 224lb (16st 0lb). Been losing 2lb a week since I started MFP but I know this will be a stretch. Got off to a good start - was 231lb on 1/Jun.

    10lbs... 35,000 calories.

    Ok, now I've said it - better get on with it! And I know that the last time I was at/below 16st was 15 years ago so, that... in the words of the Kung Fu Panda... would be "like Freakin' Awesome!"

    Thanks delmc1 for pointing me here.

    Hi Amazing to see the weight loss so far!

    I've not really got going yet - put my name forward when it all started but can't find myself on the spreadsheet...did I need to add myself in?!

    Could really do with the support! :flowerforyou:

    Update : 6 days and 2.5 lbs to go. Difficult but not impossible. Had kinda given up when I weighed on Sunday (1/Jul) with 5 lbs to go. Then weighed today (2/Jul) 2.5 lighter :-)

    I know the daily weigh will bounce up and down, but I'll take it this time. Would love to hit 224 lb (= 10lb lost) as thats 16 stone in "old money" and its been (many) years since I was below 16st.

    Anyone hit -10lb already? C'mon lets hear about it!
