Okay everyone. The Halloween Challenge was a big deal to me as a newbie. I was banded on Sept. 2 and I am doing very well, partly because of that spreadsheet! So a big thank you to LeighaMason who put together the spreadsheet. I put one together this morning for The Christmas Challenge. I figured that I could basically copy and paste, in doing so, I messed up the Halloween spreadsheet...so my apologies to Zeniada...I had no idea what I was doing and I messed up your line!! I feel terrible!

However, I somehow managed to get a spreadsheet put together...I hope it works. My goal is to another 8 pounds by the Monday after Christmas. Weigh ins will be Mondays, as usual, beginning on the 8th. Here is the link. I hope it works for everyone. If something isn't letting you read or edit, let me know, I may need to change my privacy settings.

Good luck to all who wish to participate.

Okay, apparently I don't know how to post a link. Urg. If someone can help a technology challenge goof get a link up, let me know

I'm in! I was banded on 10/1 and the weight loss has started slowing down. I've lost 21 since surgery and want to lose 16 more by Christmas. Totally doable!

I am in - thanks for setting it up!!! I love these challanges - they keep me honest and I love the spreadsheets! Good luck to all!!!

OH MY GOSH! I am so excited about this! I am so glad everyone is in, and I can't wait to see how everyone does. Good luck to you all!

Ok so I will give this a try. After yesterday's appointment I am officially stalled out! No wieght loss in 4 weeks. She checked my food journal and it looks like I am only eating about 50% of what I should be. So new eating plan and a new set of directions. Basically I am supposed to eat double what I have been. I will try and we shall see! So I wanted to be in Onderlad by Jan 1, and though I am doubtful that will happen, I am still willing to try.

OK! Count me in again! One day I will make my goal. Just 10lbs for me. Good Luck All!

Gonna give it a try, weight is slow going right now but want to lose 10 lbs by Christmas.

I won't be banded until the 8th of December, but I would love to get in on this.

I'd like to lose 10lbs by the end of the challenge.

(I'm setting the bar low for me as I have a really bad problem with beating myself up if I don't get to where I wanted to be, lol.)

good luck everyone!

hi guys, my first challenge too, I was banded on 10/15/10 and havent had a fill yet. I see my doctor on 18th Nov and expect a fill then. I have set a target of 10lbs, I have lost 8lbs since surgery but this has slowed now I am on mushies..... does my target seem reasonable or should I aim higher????

good luck everyone

Yay! Love challenges! I'm in! My goal for New Year's is 199 so I'm making my Christmas goal 202. We can do this!
