Who wants to lose 10 lbs by Christmas?


Quote  |  Reply
Hey guys, are any of you interested in losing 10 lbs by Christmas w/ me? I'm thinking weigh in day will be Friday, and losing 10 lbs by Dec. 25 is pretty reasonable, about a pound a week. If you're interested post your stats. Anyone is welcome. =D

Made my goal!  Now to keep it off or possible lose another pound or 2.  I still have the 2 holiday parties to go to and right after xmas my son is coming into town for the weekend.

Height: 5'7''

Starting: 245
Christmas goal: 235
Current: 235

I reached my Christmas goal early! Congrats to others who have reached theirs as well!

I'll be happy if I can still lose a few by Christmas, though. I want continue losing about 1 lb/week.

Once again, I've made my goal and surpassed it!

My starting weight on this thread was 161 lbs.
Goal Weight: 151 lbs.

As of today, I'm at 150 pounds! YAAY, I did it!

So now, I think my goal weight for Christmas is 148 lbs. That seems doable...

Good for everyone for all their fabulous work!  We can do it!

I start Nov. 2 at 146

On Mon, Tues, Wed it said I was at 140 then all of a sudden it jumped (for no reason that I can account for) to 143/144.  It's time for TOM so I am hoping that that is all the change in weight is?!  I guess time will tell.

I actually look a little bigger too but I don't know if that is my mind or if I am bloated, or if I really am.  I have done well with everything (not perfect but I still don't think I did anything to warrant a 3 or 4 pound weight gain!

I am so confused!!!!   When I was doing well, the scale jumped up 4 pounds.  Yesterday I was so bad and piged out on movie theater popcorn (no butter but it still adds up to 700 to 1000 calories) and the scale went down 2 pounds.
