Okay ladies and gents, you asked for it, a Fall Weight Loss Challenge.

How it works:

This challenge will be for a 10 week period, starting today, September 5th and ending Monday, November 14th (just in time for all that Turkey and other goodies on Thanksgiving). Everyone is welcome to participate.

1. Make a weight loss goal for the 10 week period.

2. Post your start weight as of the day you join the challenge.

3. Post a photo of yourself at your weight as of the date you start the challenge.

4. Weigh in each Monday and post your progress here.

5. At the end of the 10 weeks post an after photo of yourself so we can all join in seeing and celebrating your accomplishment.

My starting weight this morning for the challenge is 251.

My goal is to lose 20lbs in the next 10 weeks. I will post a before picture (which is my Summer Weight Loss Challenge after photo) later today or tomorrow morning sometime.

I love these challenges! They help keep me motivated, and help to keep the scale moving!

I am in. I just ordered a scale which won't be here for about a week, but I will try and go weigh somehwere today or tomorrow.

My goal for the challenge is to lose 20lbs. over the 10 weeks.

Thanks Corrine! I'm in!

Start Weight for this Challenge is 198. My goal is 10 pounds in 10 weeks. Here's my pic. Good luck everyone!!

I am in too. Thanks for starting this...I really did not do the summer challenge like I wanted to...so here is my second chance. I am 202 this am. I would like to lose 12 pounds in 10 weeks. That would be 190.

OK I'm in I need to take a picture for the challenge. There are no photo's on the board yet of me. THis will be my debut!

I'm 198 and in 10 weeks I would like to be 180 , on second thought 179.9 sounds sooooo much better. So just shy of twnety pounds for me. This will put be in a comfortable 14 or a snug 12. and 30 away from my goal of 150.

Thanks for the challenge!!!!! Lets all kick some butt!!!

Perfect timing for me to be in! I'm just getting started, with a weight of 336.5...so I believe that I am good for 37 pounds. I really want to break the 300 mark!

Im in!!

My starting weight is 225....My goal for the next TEN weeks is 20 pounds. I will post pictures at a later time...

Thanks for this challenge...I am gonna stick to my weigh ins on Sunday if thats okay. I have been doing it regularly since my surgery on Sunday mornings.

Count me in! 255 pounds this AM. I would like to lose 20 pounds over the next 10 weeks.

I'm in, I did horrible on the last 2 challenges. Now that summer is officially over, I need to get back on track and lose 10 lbs before Thanksgiving & Holidays . I'm 170 this morning would like to see 160

Im gonna get real here.

When I went for my consultation, my surgeon asked me what weight I wanted to see. My response was 175. He suggested me go for 150. I was in awe - Ive NEVER been 150 after the age of 12.

SO, back to MY original goal...

I want to lose 5 pounds in this challenge (but 10 would be fine with me too).

This would put me at my MY original goal weight.

The heck with getting to 150, I just wanna see 175 (for now)!

Count me in! I'm 222 as of this morning and I would like to lose another 12 pounds for this challenge. I will have a "challenge start photo" by the end of the week.. I must get back to the gym this week!

Can I play! weighed in at 210 this morning!

300 cruntchs 15 minutes

Six sets or weights 37 minute

Okay, count me in too. I'll try to get my son to take a pic in the morning.

Start for me is 189--goal is 169 by week 10.

I am HIGHLY MOTIVATED right now because my brother is getting married October 29 and there will be family members there that I only see every few years (family weddings and funerals). I sure would like to knock them out with a new, improved Kare!

I am in, although I don't get banded until Oct. 7th.

I am at 256 now <thanks to my stupid scale!>

My goal in 10 weeks is to lose 26 lbs. Putting me at 230, a nice kickstart into Bandlandia!

I am on the right.
