Lose 20 pounds by October 25 Challenge

My friend and I are starting a lose 20 pounds by October 25 Challenge! Anyone else want to join us? These are the rules:

eat 3 meals a day, and they have to be relatively healthy which means limited microwavable foods like lean cuisines (I could live off those but they are SO not healthy) and of course water intake to try to get at least 8 cups, also we have to have at least 30 minute of some sort of cardio a day, that is the least amount of cardio recommended by the AHA and our diaries have to be able to be viewed so we can encourage one another.

    I am in! Although I have got about 85lbs to lose, this challenge will keep me on track. Last Saturday my weight was 238lbs, but I have ordered a new machine which will arrive in 2 days so I will post again.

    Sure I'm in :) I go on Vacation starting Friday, so I won't be able to weigh in next week, but I am taking MFP with me on my cell to log etc!

    If anyone knows how to create a group to add us to that'd be great!!
