Christmas Challenge

mollymay · November 2007

I dont think it is too soon to start a Christmas challenge. Mabe this will help give me some motivation and also help me not to be one of those "gained 10 pounds over the holidays" statistics.

Anyone want to join me?

I will weigh in the Fridayy before Christmas, which is the 21st.

My goal by December 21 2007: 15 lbs.

Hi,

I'm new to this so I'm starting out small. I would like to lose 7 lbs. by
December 21. I'm taking a trip before then so I'm really going to have to get serious about this.

Okay, COUNT ME IN!!:happy: I'm already doing the "Thanksgiving Challenge" and I plan on losing 10 lbs by 11/22. So, from then until 12/24, I will lose another 10 lbs. So, altogether I plan on losing 20 lbs from now until 12/24.

I plan on having a BEAUTIFUL weigh-in on 1/1/08!! :drinker:

Good luck to everyone,
Naj

I am also in the Thanksgiving Challenge and my goal for for that challenge is 5 pounds. I'll keep the Christmas challenge at the same goal, five pounds.

Thank you so much for the challenges, they really keep me on track

Good Idea!!!

I made a spreadsheet for my weight loss goal, and it says I should lose another 8 pounds by December 22.

I'm in!

I'll join this challenge since the Thanksgiving challenge isn't going well for me.
This challenge is giving me more time.

I'm in!!!!!:happy:

julieofthewolves · November 2007

I'm ditto'ing Healthier.... (full of ditto's today).

Thanksgiving challenge has had lots of wrenches thrown in it. So I'm moving onto the Christmas challenge.

My goal - lose my last 10.5 pounds by 12/21.

Healthier_Me · November 2007

I'm just gonna try to lose as much weight as I can.... setting a goal doesn't work for me so here goes nuttin'!:ohwell:

banks1850 · November 2007

I would love to do this except I don't know how much I weigh, so I can't give a goal, but I can give what I would like to be by then, and that is 200 lbs or less.

traumarn · November 2007

i am up for a challenge . since i just started i need a bit of motivation

buiebunch · November 2007

I'm in for 10 by 12/21

That would be 162 for me.

jilweather · November 2007

I want to join the Christmas Challenge.

I am new so not sure of an amount. I would like to lose 15 pounds by 12/21!!!

I need a challenge and motivation to get me going!!

Nich0le · November 2007

I am in!

Goal is 16 lbs by Dec 31 and hopefully one more pant size!

redalee · November 2007

My goal was 195 by Thanksgiving, and I'm 196 now. So, I'm going to go for broke and say 185 by December 27th. I've been under 200 for a week now, and still doing the happy dance! Good thing, everything is dark so early and gray skies, dismal is the word. :indifferent:

Loretta_Jo · November 2007

Congratulations redalee I am doing the happy dance with you for being under 200. When I got below 200 I was doing the same thing I also squealed with delight. LOL :bigsmile:

For the challenge I hope I get to 7 below my goal before then. What I will do is do my very best to stay as close to 7 below goal as I can with out going under by Christmas. As well and into the new year and beyond.

:flowerforyou:

barefootbabe · November 2007

This is the first challenge I am joining- I hope it will help me have a more defined idea of what exactly I want to achieve!

I would like to weigh 150 pounds by December 23. Here goes!

mechanicmom · November 2007

I want to lose 10 pounds by 12/21. More would be great!

cherylkf · November 2007

Okay, I'm in...my goal is to be down one pant size. Good luck all!

Thanks for suggesting this.

namaste · November 2007

I'm so in need of a kick in the pants. Been feeling very discouraged lately. The first week I dropped 3-4 lbs, but I've been holding steady now for several weeks.

I'm in a wedding just after Thanksgiving, and I'm going skiing in Colorado the first week in December. So alright, here goes. At 167 now, so I would like to be at 160 by Thanksgiving, and 150 by Christmas. I'm going to try for more than that, but just this would be a great start.

Thanks for all the encouragement I've gotten just from reading other people's posts. It really has helped me realize that it is a constant struggle, but that though I may lose some battles I can still win the war. Thanks guys!

I was actually just thinking about this. And how hard it is going to be around the holidays... my family isn't so bad, but my boyfriend's family is always encouraging you to EAT EAT! on the holidays... I logged my food for today, and if every day is like today, I will lose 9 pounds by december 11. So count me in on the challenge, i hope to lose 15!
