HELLO!! I WOULD LOVE TO JOIN THE MOTHER'S DAY CHALLENGE. I DID THE EASTER ONE WHY NOT DO ANOTHER ONE. MY STARTING WEIGHT IS 218. I WOULD LOVE TO BE UNDER 200LBS BY MAY 28. MAYBE 10LBS DOWN FOR THE MOTHER'S DAY CHALLENGE:unsure:. WE CAN DO IT!!! I HAVE FAITH IN ALL OF US.:smile2:

Great idea! I will aim for 10 by Mother's Day.

I am in for 10, which will put me at 143 . . . five pounds below my doctor's goal, and one pound above my personal one! I gave myself a "free" day yesterday and ate a million pounds of chocolate - I feel like I never want to eat it again so I hope the feeling lasts!

I would love to join. I haven't done one yet! 10 pounds for me.

I am scheduled for a fill on wednesday.

Having said that, lets just say I hope I get 12 of the 20 lbs I want to lose by Mother's Day...And on that note (its lovely cycle time) so I am up one pound right now to 188 : ( GO AWAY MOTHER NATURE! LOL! Good luck everyone! : )

Mother nature struck yesterday--bad day--I take prescription meds--not helping. I am up three pounds, but no big deal--at least it will be gone by the end of the week.

I am going to say 18 lbs I have my first fill on this thursday. But I am picking 18 because it will be my 18 wedding aniversary. So that is my goal. Havnt lost any thing since I started solids.

I'm in for 20! If I lost 20 pounds by MD, I would be at 189...Not only into ONE-derland, but lower than I can remember in 12 years!! HEAVEN!!

I love the motivation of this challenge. I am in for 15 lbs. this will be the first time that I weighed under 200 lbs in 20+ years. I started exercising this week, so I am going to pump it up. I don't have a fill yet, was banded March 11th.

Let's get this party started, I weighed today and at 209.

I'll go 20lbs...I'm at 255 right now, so that will put me at 235 by Mother's Day!!! Woot Woot...I'm reeeeaaaaddddyyy...just finished my workout!

This is great!! I'm in for 10 ish! I'm 171 now & wanna get to 161 by moms day!! get on that tredmill!!!!! woooo whoooo~~!!!! We're goin down!!!! :-)
