Jamie, count me in.. I agree with tele-nurse, anyone that can make me

all over the laptop screen is someone to hang with.

so, Linda: 50 to lose/ 0 lost/ 50 to go.

LovesDivine · 07-01-2007, 03:03 PM

Hey Cleo/Jamie - I joined your mid year resolution last year (was LT2936) and look forward to participating this year also!

I am about 15 lbs to reasonable goal (130) and 20 lbs to rockin goal (125). I am losing like a freakin snail right now. If I get to 130 and never get lower, I will still be happy. Sign me up for 15 gone by 12/31/07.

15 to lose/0 lost/15 to go

LadyJulieAnn · 07-01-2007, 05:38 PM

This will be my first challenege.

I've been losing about 5 pounds a month, so I am going to make my numbers based on that to carry me through Dec. 31.

Okee Doke,
Cleo...is your name Jamie?? Cool name...too bad your parents weren't as "creative" as mine with the confusing spelling LOL

I am IN

I have lost 25, but want to lose 60 more. I think a realistic goal would be 30 pounds before New Years...

So here I am

Jaimie
30/0/30

Tecnokitty · 07-06-2007, 08:00 AM

HI All,

I have so been looking forward to this starting up! Just wanted to let you all know that we will be moving from MD to TX and will be leaving on or around the 15th to get there by the 20th. DH has to start work on the 24th! So I may be MIA for at least a little bit of the beginning

I promise to log in and post as soon as is humanly possible after we get there. And a BIG welcome to everyone!

ajcav062197 · 07-07-2007, 04:49 AM

Chleo.. I want to change my goal for the challenge. I believe 32 lbs is a more realistic goal for me by the end of the year.

I set up my google acount today. I am READY!

magnamater · 07-08-2007, 06:00 AM

Okay, count me in too!

And a big HOWDY to technokitty, Jaime, and all those I know from other places here at LCF!

Lovesdivine, I am just about where you are. . .I would love to get to 125, but 130 is my goal too!! (and I am short, how about you? 5'almost3", but I'm claiming that inch!)

So for me. . .

magnamater: 13 lbs. to go/0 lbs lost/13 to go

I appreciate you, Cleo/Jamie, getting this ball a'rolling. Hope the lbs. fall off!

Janie

rhlong · 07-08-2007, 08:37 AM

I want to join this challenge if it is not too late.

Janie

Hey, I am 5'3" and taking that extra inch too!!! Back when I was skinny, I always said I was 5'2" so I would seem more "petite". How funny, now I WANT that inch!!

I have re thought goal by 12/31 and still want to keep it at 15 lbs but to be honest, if I am at 135 and maintaining on 12/31 - I am gonna be a happy 37 year old!!!

heathershubby · 07-08-2007, 07:08 PM

This is a great idea and a great way to keep track your a smart one

OK here it is 40lbs/0lbs/40lbs

I am going to add this to my signature (well make it) my signature as well

thanks I know this will be quite an undertaking but when you add up all the weight loss of all the contestants at the end it will be amazing.

sallyk · 07-09-2007, 02:27 PM

y'all: heathershubby, Jamie, rhlong, dblyn, and Janie

Can't wait until "Cleochatra" is back!

ms_squarepants · 07-10-2007, 07:09 AM

Me too..... Me too?

Heather: 20 to lose/ 0 lost/ 20 to go

ms_squarepants · 07-11-2007, 06:36 AM

I decided to change my goal:

Heather: 27 to lose/ 3 lost/ 24 to go

cleochatra · 07-11-2007, 07:41 AM

Hi guys! I just got home last night and now have to run for an hour. I'll be back. I'm so glad you're on board and have joined in!

Here is to a New Year's Eve to feel great about and to accomplishments through small changes over time getting us to those goals!

You guys will do GREAT!

Jamie (the spelling that got me razzed throughout the Bionic Woman series back in the day)

civetta · 07-11-2007, 09:07 AM

Woohoo!

I want in on this!

DJnatalie · 07-11-2007, 09:16 AM

Cleo - I just posted right above this one under 'civetta' -

That was my new user name because my old one was not active to post anymore - but it just got reactivated! Woohoo!

So I will be posting under this one from now on.

71 lbs to lose / 9 lost so far / 62 lbs to go!

or if we're not counting what we've already lost, we can do 50/0/50 starting the 15th, either one is fine by me.

Tecnokitty · 07-11-2007, 01:32 PM

HIya Janie! So happy to see you here

Hi to everyone else and welcome!

Welcome back Cleo! I posted a note a while back about me moving, so I will miss the first couple days while we drive from Maryland to Texas, but I'll post as soon as we get our internet up at the new house! I've missed ya!

Hi Jamie!

I can't tell you (again) how happy I am to have found your challenge before it started.

This is a great way to look forward to the new year!

My stats are:
nedn2lose: 30 pounds to lose/ 0 lost / 30 pounds to go!

PhillyTwinsMom · 07-12-2007, 06:44 AM

I would like to join the group also. I think this will be a great motivator. I always do better if I have smaller challenges/goals to reach. So since my vacation is around the corner I now have this goal to work towards.

Philly~~ 30 to lose/0 lost/30 to go

Thanks...........

AiricaMarie · 07-12-2007, 02:48 PM

I'm totally in! I don't know how many New Years I have spent wishing I had committed last new years......to heck with new years! my new year starts on July 15th!

pri17cess72 · 07-12-2007, 02:49 PM

30 to lose/0 lost/30 to go

Thanks for starting this up!

heather2578 · 07-12-2007, 02:49 PM

I really just want to get to ONEderland. I steadily lost 120lbs in a little over a year, but since then I've been bouncing up and down around the same weight for about another year. I peeked into ONEderland for 3 days in March before border control kicked me out.

Today I weighed 205.8, so that's just 6lbs away from getting back in! 6lbs seems like such a small goal for 5 & 1/2 months, but after this long battle, it would be a huge deal for me.

I guess I could round it to an even 10lbs to make my goal less wimpy!

Heather2578: 10 to lose/0 lost/10 to go
