Christmas Challenge!!!

I decided since today is October 25th, we are exactly two months away from Christmas to start a challenge. I participated in the Halloween one and it worked out great. I have 6 more days of that one, but I am close to my goal. I am so excited about that, I want to do it again!

Do you guys want to do a Christmas challenge? If so...

I will start it off...

SN--- Forensikchic SW--194 GW---174 CW--194 lbs to goal--- 20

For this challenge, the starting weight is what you start the challenge at, not your original starting weight. Good luck peeps and I hope we have a lot of people do this challenge too! I say shoot for the moon!

I went for 20 for Halloween but I am falling a little short of that (about 3 lbs or so). I started to go for 15 but decided I would do 20 again because I am hoping for less complications this time! If I fall short and only loose 15 or so, its ok! Thats 15 more toward my goal! I dont want to make unrealisitic goals but I feel strongly that if I really dig in and exercise, I can do it! You can too!!

SN--- wishes................ SW--202............... GW---169.................. CW-- 202............ lbs to goal--- 33

I don't know if I can do it, but I am going to give it my all! Glad to be joining you ladies!

Fa la la la la...I'm in!

SN - Virginia S. SW--319 GW---175 CW--208 lbs to goal--11 (that's 197, which is the threshold of overweight for me)

I'm in...SW 203 GW 188 CW 203 so I'll bid 15 lbs on this challenge! Good luck everyone!

I'm in too! I have no idea what would be realistic, but if I could hit 162, which is a loss of 38 pounds I would be ecstatic! It would be my 100 pounds down mark, so I'm going to aim for it. If I don't hit it I'll still be happy. But since I am still a new sleever I'm thinking it might be possible.

SW-200..........GW-162............CW-200.........lb's to goal- 38

I will be happy just to stay between 190 to 195 but I'll put my goal at losing 10 pounds from 197 to 187 if I get motivated then 180 but I'll be realistic

I haven't done one of these yet either......so I'm in :)

SN - Deakay

CW - 194.2

GW -178.2

lbs to goal - 16

Time to hit the ground running with exercise again. We can do this!

I'm not going to post my starting numbers until I see where I end up on the Halloween challenge because I think I am going to come up short. Either way my Christmas goal has always been to be at my goal of 155 or my normal BMI. That will be just shy of 9 months surgiversery. I'm 14lb from there today and been stalled for what seems like FOREVER. but I am determined to hit it by the end of the year.

I'm with Lanette. I'll post my numbers when I see where I end up for the Halloween challenge. I'm 4 lbs away!

I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo IN on this one ! ! !

Tatum will be here 1 November, we're traveling home to Texas for Christmas and I have a major goal to have ALL of my pregnancy weight GONE by the time we leave Florida on December 23rd.

SN- Tiffykins Current Weight - 163lbs (33lbs gained in pregnancy) Back to maintenance weight - 125-130lbs (I'll be content at 130lbs, and then allow myself my normal 5lbs bounce of 125-130lbs)
