Well here I am, after a long break from the site and from LC.

It's time I get serious again and stop making excuses for myself.

I'm looking to lose 10-15 lbs by the end of October.

Any takers?

I usually weigh daily just to keep myself in check, with measurements once a week. Of course it's not a requirement, just how I do things.

09/28....184.8

I will try. I really would like the weight to fall off that much. 15 lbs seems like too much...but it would be THRILLING.
09/28....204...goal...189...ai yi yi

Hi I would like to join... although I'm going to try for 10 - 15lbs, I really am not sure if I will make that, maybe 8lbs (I seem to lose slow). But it's worth a go! The main reason I am joining is I have decided to do propler Atkins as of tomorrow, I want to see how it works for me... hopefully as well as everyone else!

Bring it on

My weight as of today 29th September is 196.1/4

Should we do a table/list like the other threads? Start weight/Goal Weight/Current weight/Lbs to go? I find that easiest, just a suggestion.

Hi all,

I'm up for another challenge though I may get confused about which is which.

I'd go with Kay's suggestion of a table.

Anyway, today I weigh 182, realistically I won't lose more than 5 to 7 pounds so I'm going to aim for 175. 175 by 31st October would be fantastic!

I'm from NY, and I've been up & down with my weight since my teens. I just finished college and I gained the "college weight".
Im tired of being overweight, not fitting into my clothes, tired of the excuses & bull, and just TIRED OF BEING TIRED!!!! I searched for 3 hrs. today to find a suiting support group & I think I met my match

I am totally up for an October Mini-challenge!!!! Im aiming at losing a total of 60 or so pounds but Im aware that I have to start off with a min-goal.....for October, I would like to lose about 15 pounds.
Im doing my own low carb diet included with daily exercise. Im looking for encouragement, support and am willing to give the same to all of you as well Here are my stats:

Hi everyone and welcome!

As I stated, I'd like to lose 10-15....which may seem like a good bit considering I only have 30 something to lose but I tend to get to the 170 mark pretty easy then get stuck. Even if I only lose 5 that will be alright.

Talking about a list kinda like this? If so just fill in your stats, if not you can remake one!

Here's to a fresh start!

Jenn SW 184.8 CW 184.8 Goal 170 / 14.8 lbs to go!

Hi, great, here's to a new start!!!!!

Here are my stats:

hotnurse31 SW 188 CW 188 Goal 130/ 58 lbs to go!

October's Goal 15 lbs.

Nice one, we have a few people joined so far... let's get to it!

What about a list like this? (I hope I got everyones stats right...)

Name............Start Wt.....Goal Wt.....Current Wt....Lbs left to lose
Jenn..............184.8.........170...........184.8...........14.8 lbs to go
mimarg5557....204............189...........204..............15 lbs to go
Kay2008........196.¼.........181.¼.......196.¼...........15 lbs to go
Magpies.........182............175...........182..............7 lbs to go
hotnurse31.....188............173...........188..............15 lbs to go

Then all we do is update our 'Current Wt and Lbs left to lose' whenever we weigh in.

Looks good Kay....thanks!

Hope everyone has had a great day so far

I want to join too

I'll also aim for somewhere between 10 and 15 lbs lower, and see how it goes. Though I'll put 16 in the table to make it a rounder ending weight number.

I'm in. My goal right now is 185, which is both my all time low weight as an adult AND the highest "overweight" BMI for someone my height. If I eat clean and stay on track, then I think that I can hit it by Halloween.

I expect around a 6-7 lb loss during the next week or so...restarting always flushes away that water and bloat

Hope you all have a great on plan day!

I just started yesterday. I would love to lose about 15 pounds or so by the end of October, although I tend to lose weight fairly quickly when I first start back on low carb. More than 15 would be awesome, but I'll take what I can get. LOL
