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:

Monday June 27th

Starting weight 172

Waist 34 inches

Bust 40 inches

Hips 41

Clothing size 10

As of this point, I think I have everyone who's posted or sent me quicknotes or PM's. Check the site, and if you're not there and think you should be, let me know again!

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

Thank you everyone for the inspiration. I'm shooting for 20 in 10 weeks. That would put me at 194. by Labor Day.

I nned to take a picture. I'll post it later this week.

Is it too late to join the challege??? As of this morning I weigh 232, I would like to loose 20 pounds by the end of the summer. I hope that's a realistic goal...

I hope it's not too late.... I want to join too. I weighed 192 this morning and want to lose 15 lbs. in 10 weeks! I need this to help me get through the slumps. Thank you Jonathon!!!

It's never too late.

People may join at any time, but they have to use the weight as of the date that they start. So, the earlier you start, the better =)

Everyone's in, so far...

I guess I forgot to say how much I want to lose. I'm 287 starting, and I'd like to be 275 at the end of the 10 weeks. I can do this! Even without a fill!!!!

okay, I got home last night really late, and just tummbled into bed.

I'm in for 10 for 10

Could one of the sweet moderators please montage my pix?

I figured a facial closeup to measure any difference in my face.

okay, here goes.

wooo hoo Crystal! those pix are GREAT!! {{im so proud of you}}

Would you mind if Penni made you an avator ??

Thanks Paula, you are too kind. I don't know if I'm ready for an actual avitar, but yes, if I don't strecth myself, I'll never grow. Could you please Penni?

Here are two different avatars you pick which one you like best.

Here is the second one.

Well, since I don't like any pix of me, I'll have to let someone else pick. Can you believe this has me in tears?

Aw Crystal. It's ok. You look like such a happy and nice person! I looooooooovvvvvvve the 2nd one. It shows off your pretty smile and character.

Tears????? Oh no, please don't cry! I was looking at your pictures thinking you must be the ball of the party! Now, dry up those tears and put that beautiful smile right back on your face!

By the way, I like the first one!
