Default 10 pound race!!!

Kinda stole the idea from the format in the "lose 5 challenge" (still love you guys!). I wanted to make something just a step harder than losing 5 pounds since our weight fluctuates on a daily basis. Sometimes 5 pounds can come and go over a few days, 10 pounds is more of a permanent thing!


So here it goes! Post your starting weight ---> 10 pound lighter weight - and then your current weight in parenthesis! Use the format below to keep things easy for everyone to read! As you lose the weight, copy and paste the list over and edit your numbers! Keep it in "race" format with the winner at the top of the list and so on! Join in anytime!!!!! Just copy the race list and add your stats!


Lets see who can get to ten first!


READY--------SET--------GO!!

I'll join you. I only plan on weighing myself once in a great while (like once a month or so), so I hope that is okay. My starting weight is 142.

Hi! count me in. I'm new at this. Actually i dont even start atkins until tommorow. So this sounds like a great idea and a motivator. I am trying to lose weight for powerlifting. I am a senior in high school and I need to lose weight to be in a particular weight class. But in order to gain muscle at the same time i needed a high protein diet. This is why atkins is best for me. well good luck!

I'd really like to join in this challenge, since I'm pretty much 20 pounds away from my major milestone (200 pounds). Given that I have a lot more to lose and will probably lose twice as fast as most of you, mind if I join in with a 20 pound requirement?

tardon! looking VERY familiar! Im hiding in here so I dont have to post a fat pic!!!!!

Truffle, you are more than welcome to join!! How it works is like this...we all start with a goal of 10 to lose, when someone wins, we all start over where the race ended. So its kind of like a nonstop race, but people are just winning different legs of it Some people only have 10 to lose, but most have more! Im here for 20 as well, so you can stay as long as you would like

Ill add you to the stats!
