Hi guys,

I really hoped to code some neat stuff for the new challenge, but with some new challenges in my own life (newly single dad, new pastor, moving to a new house in a new town, you know, little things like that =) ) I just haven't had the chance.

I have, however, set up a new challenge, beginning this Monday and ending ON Labor Day.

On Monday, please weigh in and post your beginning weight here. If you don't want your weight posted, tell me to post it as "0", and we'll only track what you've lost, not what you weigh.

Peace,

Jonathan

P.S. The site is here:

Ali,

both places (only if you want to)

I am up for it...it will be a great jump start for me. I'm excited.

Count me in ! This will be a great source of accountability for me, which is just what I need at this point. I've been banded nearly 3 months, and most of my weight came off in the first month. I've been struggling with gaining/losing/gaining the same 3-4 pounds for 2 months now. I'll post my weight and before picture Monday, which is when I'm scheduled for my next fill, so this ought to be great! 10 in 10 , I can do it!

Count me in too. I'm stuck, I need a fill, but need to get off of my lazy bum and make the 2.5hr drive with my mongrel pack of children and get things started!

Has anyone else had the "summer is here and it's easy to eat quick things" problem that I'm having??

I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO happy that this starts in the morning. I have been a very bad little girl this weekend, and it involves yummy tasting IBC rootbeer that glided down into my gullet nice and smooth with no complications what-so-ever. It also involved yummy minty bliss Oreos too.

Dear God help me, cause no one else can!!!! LOL!!!!

I think I have everyone so far. Just to clarify, you have to list your starting weight here, or send it to me via a "quicknote" on the challenge website. If you do that, be SURE to include your user name.

I'm using ONLY user names this time, so there's no confusion over who's who.

With your starting weight, PLEASE also include your GOAL weight as of the end of the challenge. I'll update the software to record that later, and will have it do something cool to your name when you reach goal =)

Once you're in the system with a starting weight, you may update your weight at any time on your own.

Mods... can we sticky this thread?

Jonathan I made this thread a Sticky. LOL!!!

Hi There... I'm so ready for this challenge. Put me down for 15 pounds in 10 weeks. Current weight is 211. I will post picture later.

I so need the support! Please count me in to lose at least 10 in 10. Of course, I am shooting for the moon and if I miss, at least I will be among stars:banana

Put me down too. I don't have any pics but I would like to join. I don't know it might be just the encouargment I need. Besides I had a dream about oreo chocolate cookies last night. It was a nightmare.

Okay gang, I'm barely awake but hubby got my quick pic by the coffee pot this morning.

Start weight 207.2 and I'm hoping for a minimun of 10, but if I have to pick a REAL goal, I'll say 15, so that's 192.2, right? (check my math, I just woke up!)

Here's the puffy-eyed pic...
