I'll join. I have about 15 pounds to go until goal. I'm hoping summer will be easier for me to focus on my weightloss since I won't have the stress of school.

I teach second grade. What about you? When does summer break start for you? We only have two more weeks with the kids before our summer break starts.

I also love traveling but summer is my husband's busy time for work so we realy don't travel as much as we'd like.

We have three more weeks. I teach 8th grade, and my students definitely have senioritus as they get ready to move on to the high school next year.

I have a lot more than 15 more to go, but I'd be thrilled to lose 15 over the summer. As I said, in the past I've struggled just to maintain over the summer.

I'm in if this will keep me honest during the summer months,and if I can get 15 off during the summer months, I will hit my goal before we go back to school in the fall! Sign me up!

So far, that's three of us.

Sorry I have been way. Things have been busy getting ready for school to be out. I recently signed myself up for a gym membership. I figured that would help keep me busy during the summer months. How are you gals doing?

Super busy going to the end of the school year. But the end is in sight! It's hard to stay motivated to eat right when I'm running around like a crazy woman. But that's the point, to get back on track. 

Good Morning. My name is Bett, I live in Florida and am retired. I would like to join your challenge.

Great, Bett! Welcome to the challenge.

Hello, all.  My name is Kara and I would love to join this challenge.  It sounds like the perfect way to stay accountable and motivated.

I will join but I will be gone a little more so my weigh in dates will sometimes be Sundays.

Great, two more members.

I set Monday as the weigh-in day, since Memorial Day and Labor Day are both Mondays, but if you have to make yours Sunday or whatever, that should be fine.

I'm just starting this program, but I would love to join this challenge.  I have a lot to lose but I hope with your motivation I can lose quite a bit between now and Labor Day. 

Count me in -- no particularly weight loss goal at this time, but not putting anything back on is more important at this stage

We're up to 8 people now. Welcome coach_k & janiceruthpa.

Alright, I'm in! I feel like I want to focus on weight loss this summer, but I will be working too...

Summer, here we come! Can't wait!

Good to see you danibelle! 

I'm in too ! Lost 39lbs already since Jan 11th but have lots more to lose ! I go on holiday on Sept 20th so want to lose as much as poss before then. Good luck to all.

I agree, I'm not shooting for a particular number (although I did start off saying 15 pounds) because I always seem to fall short. But since I struggle even maintaining during the summer months, I'm hoping this helps!

 

Also--welcome to wendywoo!

Hi Everyone, It's great to see more join in our challenge. I want to lose 15#s, but would be thrilled to see any coming off. I try to be realistic about my dieting, knowing that I must make lifetime changes. As I have added years, the unwanted pounds have come with them. I am within a healthy range with a healthy BMI, but I like myself better with a little less weight.

I played 36 holes of golf today. I'm a glutton for punishment. LOL I'm hoping it will help me lose - I'm getting a great tan on the exposed parts of my body. I will look rather strange when I put on my bathing suit.
