    Ooooh...do we all get to buy a new Christmas outfit?? :bigsmile: Please add me!


    Yes that would be awesome! Maybe I'll splurge on a nice fitted dress or some bikinis and slip them under the tree from "Santa"...

    I have a personal goal to accomplish and its 52 by 52.
    I want to lose 52 lbs by my 52nd birthday.
    I just joined in May so this challenge will go hand in had with my personal goal.
    Am I crazy for thinking I can do this by Oct 6th? Any thoughts out there.
    I have lost 11 so far.


    Hard to say. After the first 6 weeks my loss slowed to 5-7 pounds a month.....

    Add me too! 40 would put me at my goal weight and I just signed up for enough boot camps to keep me moving through the rest of the year.

    Get Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. It is only $10 at Walmart and it consists of 20 min workouts. All you need are 2-3 pound hand weights and a mat if you have a hard floor. I love it!

    I'm not sure if we decided we were starting a group or if we were to be posting/sharing as we go??
    Obviously this is a very popular idea and I'd like to follow everyone listed here. Should I just do that? Go ahead and add everyone to my friends list? Or how does this work?

    I've got another 25-35 to lose, and was shooting for Christmas to lose it by! Anyone feel free to add me too, I'm always looking for mire support! I've been really slacking on exercise lately and could use some motivation! I need to start working on toning up as I get closer to my goal!

    I've lost 19-20 pounds since Feb of this year and have exactly 40 pounds left to lose. Was hoping to lose it by the end of October *my birthday* but have been feeling like it will take much longer :( I'll aim for Christmas, in case I fall shy of my originial goal. Anyone can add me! I need more supportive friends!

    If I loose 1 pound a week I can be at my goal weight by my birthday (Dec 24).

    But I've kinda hit a plateau, or thats what people I talk to call it..
    been the same weight for 4 weeks now..

    I am trying to add as many of these awesome folks as possible. I'm not good at keeping up with forums.
