Lose 5-10 pounds by Valentine's Day

I was looking for some valentines challenges and I think I was a lil late on all so I decided to come up with my own. I am 23 years old, married and have one daughter who is 3. I am currently 5'2 and 141 lbs. and looking at getting down to 125! Hopefully I can shed off around 10 pounds to get me to about 130-135 by Valentines Day!!

How about weigh-in's on Mondays?  Anyone care to join me?  We can do this!!!

If so just give me your Current Weight (CW) and your Goal Weight (GW) for Feb. 14th!!

Anyone can still feel free to join us!!

Hi! No, 1 lb = 0.4536 kg so:

your CW - 61 kg (134.4 lbs)

your GW - 58 kg (127.8 lbs)

I have almost the same stats as you, minium.  I am 24, 5'1" and currently 144.  I would like to get to 127 or less by Valentines Day.  Hopefully I can stay committed enough to acheive that.  I am in! (hopefully I am not too late).

Hi. I am 5'8" and currently weigh 138 lbs. I would very much like to join this challenge and weigh 132 by Valentine's Day.  That's a little over 1 lb a week and I think I can do it if I take on this challenge! Great idea! Thanks. Let's do this!

I'm in tooo!!!

CW = 140

GW = 130

 

these ten pounds seem to be the toughest for me. I'm open to any recommendations. 

I am so in

cw=170

gw=160

good luck everybody

cw=186
gw=176

I'm a 19 year old , 5'7, who never got to be "sexy" and wild because of my body (plus the boyfriend of course) So now I'm doing something about it (though keeping the boyfriend <3)

 CW= 175

 GW= 165

I am 26 , 5' 6" and am just trying to drop between 5 and 10 lbs. Nothing more otherwise I look ill! Believe me I have been 120, and I did not look healthy or attractive to anyone but myself! I have been back tracking through pictures and videos at that time which shed a whole new light on agreeing with those I did not agree with before! Anyway I think this would be a fun challenge and a great motivator!

CW: 140 as of Monday Jan 14

GW: 130- 135

I'd love to join. I'm not sure how to do this so I will need some guidance. I'm 5'2" and 41 years old. Not too late, right?

Is it too late to get in on this? Hi my name is Shadara and I am a single mom to two boys. I am currently 170 lobs and would like to get down to 160 by Valentines Day. I am 5'8. This is my first challenge to participate in and I am so excited. I just turned 30 on the 6th and would love to slim it down some.

CW: 170 as of Thursday Jan 17th.

I guess I am am the biggest of the group .........SIGH.............Oh well, just gives me more incentive. I have been just trying to eat right not diet and I have also joined Curves. I really like it, actually, I hate all exercize but so far I have gone everyday except yesterday because of the snow.

 

How is everyone else doing on your Valentines goal?
