Valentine's Day Challenge

I loved the New Year Challenge, so I thought I would do another one!

There are 44 days until Valentine's day (6.3 weeks to help you figure out how much you want to lose)

I would like to lose 10 lbs by then.

Start: 172

Finish: 162

What do you say? Interested?

I want to adjust my goal to 12 pounds. That'll put my ending weight at 237.4.

Hi,

Just got back from Disney World.

I gained 2 lbs... over the Holidays....

Put me in for 10lbs....

I need a challenge and a kick in the rear! This is exactly what I need because I've been stalling out and fill isn't until 27th...

:tongue2:

I'll shoot for an even 200 (starting at 213).

Good luck everyone!

Hi,

Just got back from Disney World.

I LOVE roller coasters, but had to lay off of them when I got too big for the bars to close. I like to ride wooden coasters. Soooo embarassing when they have to stand on the bar to get it to close...and even then you have no blood going to your toes and have bruises on your thighs for a week. Kinda sucks all of the fun out of the thrill ride. :tongue2:

With the great progress that you've made, I'm really encouraged to get down to where I can ride again! :blink:

Ok count me in I'm shooting for 20 pds. I go for my 4th fill on Monday 1/12. Hopefully I will have good restriction after that, plus I started working out lastnight. Look out Cupid here we come!!:wub:

Count me in also. I have gained about 4 lbs in the last 2 weeks. (Christmas and New Years. I was only 8 lbs from my goal so now I am around 12 lbs. So count me in for 15 lbs in 6 weeks. I know that I will have to REALLY have to work to achieve this goal but hey... anything worth having is worth working for. I am attending a Valentine's Day ball and this will put me in a size 9 if I reach my goal so count me in.

I'll say 10lbs+ by Valentines day, so 169.8 to 159!
