lilprnss Joined Jun 2008 Posts: 50	Thu 07/03/08 05:27 PM Well.. I'm the biggest in this group.. lol.. I'll try not to let it get to me. Certainly count me in!! Labor Day is a great motivator! MFP start: 257 Current: 233 Labor Day Goal 180 -- is that reasonable? LBS per week 7.5 give or take Final Goal 138 ... Nothing tastes as good, as being thin feels...

rosabella Joined Jun 2008 Posts: 65	Thu 07/03/08 05:39 PM When is Labor Day again? September 1st? 9 weeks? 9 lbs? Let's go. Joined MFP Weight: 137 Current Weight: 134 Labor Day Goal: 125 Pounds Per Week to Lose: exactly 1. Final Goal: 125 - that will be it!! Keep it up, everyone!! lilprnss - Being the biggest means you'll have the most to be proud of at the end!! I would set a goal of 2lb/week at most, as everyone has plateau weeks now and then.

beep Joined Aug 2007 Posts: 1,186	Sat 07/05/08 08:48 PM OK, since I didn't make my goal for the 4th of July challenge, what the heck..... I have no idea how much I could lose by September.... especially as we're going on vacation next week, but here goes.... Started April 16th at 205 Today, July 5th, I weigh 185. So, how about 175 for Labor Day? "If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough." - Mario Andretti.
