There are exactly 10 weeks until Halloween. I'd like to begin a challenge starting now (whenever you decide to join) until Oct. 31, 2003. The basic idea is to set a weight goal for that date. If you come within +5 pounds of the goal (or less than the goal itself), you earn the right to "legally" cheat on Halloween. Now, when I say cheat I don't mean a full out entire day of binging, but a few pieces of Halloween candy seems like a good prize (along with the shed weight of course!). If you'd like to join, just list your start weight and goal weight in this thread. Come back every so often and update us on your progress. Good Luck!

If you'd like to show that you're part of the challenge, use this image.

Fill it in with your goal weight and display it as motivation whenever you feel like cheating.
