November/December weight loss challenge

[Possegal]

I'll set up the next 8-week challenge for November/December. First weigh in will be this Friday - November 6th.

So let me know in this thread if you are interested in the next challenge. You can give me a goal weight if you want. Then on Friday, the first weight for this challenge.

I'll post the link at the end of the week.

I'm in, too. Same goal as always - 129.

This is going to be a tough one with the holidays in there. Good luck to all. And thanks once again, Possegal.

Here's my motivation.
My unemployed DH has been biking tons all year.
All summer, I had to listen to our biking buds say "Man, you are getting skinny. And fast. When are you going to race? How come you're so skinny?"
Blah, blah, blah....
Yesterday, he went to the Dr's for something. They put him on the scale. Since his physical in March, he went from 164 to 158 (he's just shy of 6'). He's now officially skinnier than me. And even at my skinniest, I was barely skinnier than that. (I'm big boned. Yeah, that's it.)
So, in my depression, I did a major attack on the office jar of animal crackers yesterday. Not good.
So, I think I need to jump onto this bandwagon to keep me honest.
My goal is 155.

Hello Ladies!
I recently joined to be a member of this site. I am so excited! I would love to join the weight loss challenge i am hoping to lose about 10 pounds in 8 weeks. I would love it if someone could help to let me know how i jointhis weight loss challenge. and if there are any tips of diet and exercise that has been helping others.

Consider yourself joined. Tomorrow you can weigh in and post your weight and your goal for the end of the 8-week period. Most weigh in on Fridays but some do so Sat, Sun or Mon because it works with their weigh ins for Weight Watchers or other challenges. No matter to me, just post it when you know it.

As the challenge goes on, folks will post a lot about things that are working for, and against, them. You can glean a lot from the folks in this thread.

After tomorrow I'll post a link to the spreadsheet for all to be able to view.
