    Thanksgiving Challenge

    We have a vacay coming up to Daytona Beach for Thanksgiving. I need a serious challenge before then. It's only 12 weeks away, so I'm pushing for 25 more pounds by then. Keep your fingers crossed for me, please!
    Lowest Weight Ever: 145
    Highest Weight Ever (pregnant): 265
    Weight When Started 8/8/04: 221
    Current Weight: 199.5
    Goal: 150

    Sounds like a good and reasonable goal, I am sure that you can do it. Seems like a nice goal for myself as well, Thanksgiving it is!!!

      :icondance Count me in. When i first started i thought 150 would be my ideal weight, but to get that real cut look i think an extra 25 pounds would really do it for me.

      So when's gonna be the weigh-ins...every one or every two weeks?




      Starting: 190
      Current: 147
      Goal: 130

        I figure if I weigh in on Wed Sep. 1st, that would be 12 weeks until the day before Thanksgiving.

        So every other week would be 7 times including the 1st. (I am kind of a scale addict so, every other week would be a good challenge for me.) Then one final time on the 24th. So I guess 8 times total.

        Good luck

                  The more people the better. If I have a bunch of people to answer to I should stay pretty focused.

                  I am going to try and only weigh in every other week, so I don't obsess over the scale as usual, but if any one wants to weigh more than obviously that is fine too.

                    I am a scale addict myself, so I like frequent weigh-ins and would like to post results weekly. Since the challenge start date of 8/25, I am down only 1.5 pounds overall, so it appears I'm off to a slow start! I will do this though, for the sake of the beach goers at Daytona!

                            I want to join, too!

                            On Sept 1, I was 212-1/2 (up 1/2 for water retention) and I want to weigh 199 by Thanksgiving.

                              Yesterday i weighed in at around 153, so that's 2 pounds down. Starting on the 7th, i'm gonna run a clean induction that will run until October 7th. After that i'll probly move onto OWL for a week or two, and then go back onto induction for the rest of the challenge. I find little variations like that help out a lot. :yes

                              Anywayz, good luck to everyone on this challenge. Hopefully we'll all have dropped 25 or more pounds by the end of this challenge. :icondance
