    TE Fall Weight Loss Challenge - Sept/Oct

    Hello all!

    Post here if you'd like to join our weight loss challenge for Sept/Oct.

    Anyone is welcome and all we ask is that you commit to weigh in once a week (on Fridays or thereabouts) and share your weight. In general, if you post by Monday, noon (PST), then you'll make the weekly chart update.

    Please post your starting weight this Friday (9/5). Also, if you'd like - post your weight loss (or maintenance) goal for this 8 week period. An 8 week challenge makes our final weigh-in day Halloween (Oct 31st).

    Let's Git er done!

    I'm in - again. Maybe this will be the time period I can make a dent.

    Thanks Catherine, for keeping track again.

    GLC, I have never lost weight and I would not be able to reach my goals from last challenge without your chart. Honestly, without your chart I would not even remember my goal (I got very selective memory). My shed pounds are really your triumph too. Thank you for all the work - I know how much consistency it takes to post the chart every week.

    So, that said I am in for the challenge.

    I am again teaching 250 people this semester and to add to the stress, I have very prominent VIP daughter in my class. Thus, my goal might sound silly but if I loose 5 pounds and get to 149 lbs, it is going to be the least I weighed since the high school and I will be very proud of myself.

    Thanks again.

    Count me in, too. I didn't reach my goal last time, but did end up weighing less than when I started. Hope to continue that path.

    Thanks GLC, love the charts!

    Sorry I'm late - too much going on in my family with my sister just out of the hospital! Anywho - 174.6 for me and I swear to heck if I don't get out of the 170s I'm going to scream. I'm aiming for 168 by the end of this 2-month challenge.

    I won't be able to weigh in on Fridays for a while. Too much traveling. Managed to get through the first 2 travel weeks without putting too much back on. As of this morning I'm back up at my old holding weight for a while now: 180.4 If I can get through the travel period without gaining more, then I ought to be able to get down by about 4lbs next month.
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    Sorry for the delay in posting this! I had to go get my passport taken care of at lunch yesterday, so I've been a bit behind schedule this week.

    Here we go!
