Did I mention that is 1/2 way through the year mark also. If I lose 10 pounds by then I will be 1/2 way to my 2004 goal to lose 50 pounds.
I'm anxiously waiting for anyone to join me.

That's cool, 40 pounds sounds like a lot, but I've seen some people lose 40 in 3 months... wish I could do that, but so far my best is 22 pounds in 15 weeks from Dec 16th to March 30th.
Then I went on vacation and don't know what the scale will show on my official weigh in Tuesday night.
I didn't do so good on vacation, but I didn't do bad either.
I'll be happy if I maintained and I'll start again from there.

I would like to join the challenge. I would like to be 160 by then. :::crossing fingers::: I think we should start a list with all our names, and weight to keep track. Just copy and paste and add your names to the list.

.............start weight........Goal................Current

Zulela........181.................165...................177

LOL! Thank you all!

Yes, I think we should get a big bus and you can all drive out to Maine to enjoy my wedding with me! For those of you who can't make it though, I'll be sure to post pictures of me in my newly under 300 state. *crosses fingers* I know I can do it with such great encouragement!

Now it's time to go wish Kina a happy birthday!

Hi Cheryl and Charleez,

Hmmmm...well I don't have a scale at home. I had to get rid of it because I was being obsessive. The last time I saw my DR I was weighing 220 but last week I went to my parents house and weighed 213 and then just yesterday I weighed again at their house and was 210.

I would like to join...I guess I could go with the 210 on mom's scale and weigh in again at her house from time to time. It will give me a good reason to go over and visit. Lose 10 lbs by 4th of July that would get me into Onederland...sure thing! I am up for the challenge.

However, being that my birthday is just this Wednesday...I will be cheating. Just so that I won't be feeling guilty...you all will know that day is a sacred cheat day! LMAO I am in with you guys and whoever else might follow behind.

Hugs & Smiles

count me in Cheryl! Maybe if I am in 2 challenges it will keep me motivated and accountable I would love to be at 150 by the 4th of July. 15 lbs in 12 weeks !!!!

Hi Cheryl I posted earlier that I wanted to join and now my post is MIA? Hmm Anyway I want to join! I would love to be at 150 by the 4th of July. That would be 15 lbs in 12 weeks. Maybe 2 callenges will keep me accountable and motivated! Good luck everyone!

Hello, Cheryl,
Count me in on this 4th July Challenge, too!! Matter of fact, one of my mini-goals is to weigh 180 by 4th July. What day will be weigh in day? Best of Luck to all that joins!!

Weigh in day will be whatever you usually weigh in.
I know for me I need 8.5 pounds to be 1/2 way to my 50 pound in 2004 goal.

Hey PVK-- both of your posts are showing!!! LOL

I'm in 2 challenges now too, but needed a short term challenge to getme motivated.

Cheryl:

I'll join in, at the 10 pound level. That's about all I can hope for with the lack of speed I've been suffering. (Of course, I'd LOVE to lose more...)

Current weight today, after indulging myself at dinner last night--271.2.

Hi everyone! I would love to join you all. I am trying to lose about 20 pounds by July 4th, but even 10 would be nice! I'll stop back in later
