Thanks for all your work, Bea! You made this challenge fun- I was eager to see our totals each week even if I wasn't losing.

Well my goal was 165lbs... and I'm 166.5 lbs that's ok, maybe for Thanksgiving.

Yeah! Beat my Halloween goal today! I'm going to just let it ride (not reset my goal) and see what happens next week. That will be the end of this challenge and the beginning of the Thanksgiving Challenge. This is really so much fun working together and celebrating each other's victories. Some stats for your consideration: [*]Together' date=' all that have participated in the Halloween Challenge have lost a total of 511 lbs. How awesome is that! [*']7 people have beat their Halloween goal already (2 not showing on the charts since they reset their goal to a higher amount). [*]4 people have lost more than 20 lbs in the challenge so far. [*]27 people are at least 60% to their goal. [*]Our cumulative group loss averages per week are nothing less than amazing: 1.7 (1), 2.2 (2), 1.9 (3), 2.2 (4), 3.3 (5), 2.2 (6, so far) Don't forget to log in to the Thanksgiving Challenge at the same time you log in your final challenge numbers here next week. "Happy Holidays" indeed!

Thanks Bea! Your awesome!!!!! Can't wait for thanksgiving challenge!

Well I know this challenge had ended but have you ever heard the old saying "a day late and a dollar short" well today I met my goal!!!

194.4!

Current weight 186..goal by 10/ 31 is 175..

I have a strict rule about only weighing in on Monday morning..(was getting obsessive with scale) So this monday I weighed in at 176.6. I lose about 2 lbs a week so Id say I hit my halloween goal..yeah! Now for my Thanksgiving Goal..170lbs AKA Wedding Weight!!!

Awesome I hit my first goal for the Halloween challenge but not my second goal,so maybe the next months challenge I will hit it. Good job to everyone that participated. Thank you to all those who kept a log and count .
