Ok by Thanksgiving I want to be under 150! That's a bout 18 pounds! And right now I'm in a Stall! Anyone want to join in' date=' what's your goal?[/quote']

I'll join you in your stall :P Oh wait I'm already there LOL It's my first so I am not complaining. I always want to ask when I see your name...are you from Alaska? I thought I was the lone sleever LOL

So I'm 155.1 which is just a pound and a half above the "overweight" category for my height (I'm still obese dang it). I'd like to be 145, fully "overweight" but no longer obese :) I'm also spending thanksgiving with my in laws and none of them have seen me as my husband did when he met me (ok I was 110 then LOL so that's a ways away) but it would be nice to be smaller than they've ever seen me!

Let the games begin!

Ok....I'm in. Going to be conservative since I seem to be a slow loser...

Presurgery weight.....242

Weight at surgery.....225

Current weight.......208

Goal by thanksgiving.....ONEDERLAND.....199

I'll join, in in a stall as well and have been struggling with eating well.

Pre-surgery weight 304

Surgery date 8/15/12

Today's weight 255.7 lbs

I would love to be 240 by Thanksgiving so that is 15.7 lbs

Since joining the challenge I broke a stall! Now only 9 lbs to go by Thanksgiving. Bam.

Heck, I'm just looking forward to my first Thanksgiving without having to wear my "eating pants".

Surgery weight: 262

Current weight: 218

Thanksgiving goal: 205

That's 13 lbs! Hope I can do it :)

Want to hit 145 by thanksgiving...

I'm in--I'm 175 now and my loss has slowed considerably, so I'm going to set "under 170" as my Thanksgiving goal. Tryna be realistic... :)

What does the challenge consist of...
