Hey Everyone! Summer is almost here, and bringing with it the nice weather.... Its an easy time to stay on track with weight loss because we can get outdoors and be active, and buy fresh produce from the farmer's markets. Its also a difficult time because of all the vacations, parties, BBQ's, picnics, etc.

I challenge everyone to be mindful of their goals, and be closer to reaching them by September 1st. Let me know how much you want to loose in the next 15 weeks and I'll keep track.

Join anytime you want.

I'd really like to sign up for 30, but I'll go more conservatively and say 20 pounds by September 1st (and hope for more!!).

Thanks for coming up with these! They are so much fun!

I am always up for a good challenge... I have already mapped out where I would 'like' to be at the end of each month up until goal and I have set a goal of 201lbs by the end of August (realistically, I would love ONEderland)... so, here is my pledge...

26.4lbs in the next 15 weeks - YIKES!!

Thanks!
Lindsay

I would like to pledge 20....I would like to be almost at goal by Oct. 1st so this will be a great Challenge for me....

Thanks for starting
Kelly

I'd love to join this challenge!! I'd love to be 185 by the end of the summer...so we'll go with that. My WI day is tomorrow but for now I guess I'll just put my starting weight as what it was last week...216.4 which gives me a goal of 31.4 lbs for the challenge!!
Good luck all!

Beth
P.S. I made my goal slightly higher because my first WI for this challenge is tomorrow

Hey everyone! I am trying to hit a goal of 10 pounds per month, I just finished my first month at 9!
SO I would love to join this challenge, and september 1st is about 3 months from now, so I am going to say 30 pounds for me!

Good Luck everyone!!
Wish me luck too!!

I'm in for this challenge! I'll pledge to lose 25 lbs. by September 1. Good luck everyone! (Actually, let's make it 25.2 ... then I'll be at 250 even.)

Greetings,

I am going to be 30 pounds lighter.

Sign me up.

Best,

Jane

Ok, count me in for--yikes--30 pounds.
-Carrie

Had my first WI today for this challenge..down 2.6 lbs...28.8 lbs left

Beth

Count me in for 27.4 pounds to reach goal! I think I can I think I can...lol Good luck everyone!

OK, I'm in for 15 pounds. Wish it could be more but I'm trying to be realistic! It's good to have a challenge to work on!

Polly

I would like to join! 23.8 pounds which would bring me to 225 by the end of summer!!

Angela, put me down for 25lbs! Unfortunately, I got up too late to do my WI today, so I'll have to let you know tomorrow, but after that I will be back to my normal Tuesday WI. Best of luck to everyone!

Oh Good! A challenge. Thanks for doing this.

Please put me down for 30 pounds. Thanks

Well, I KNEW I was backward! Last week, during TOM, I lost 4lbs. This week, I gained 0.2lbs! Back on program, giving 110% this week. I still think I can lose 25lbs by deadline, just have to get a handle on all my triggers so I don't keep making the same mistakes again & again. Best of luck to all!

Thanks for joining me, everyone! I hope we can all find a bit of support and motivation in this thread to help all of us reach our goals this summer!

Catgirl - Dont worry about the tiny gain... you had a fantastic loss last week, so it evens out.

Beth - GREAT JOB on the excellent loss this week! Keep it up and you'll be hitting your goals no problem.

As for me, I dont know what the problem is but I haven't lost any weight the last 3 weeks. I was working out like crazy this week, too! I'm going to blame it on the warmer weather causing me to retain water.

I dont really expect a loss next week either, because I'll be celebrating my birthday tomorrow and have planned in a splurge, and then Sunday we are having a suprise party for my mom who turns 60 on Monday. She knows there is a party, but she thinks its for my daughter's high school graduation, he he he! Shhh... dont tell.

Take care,
Angela

Put me down for 31.2. That will be me at 75 lbs or halfway. If my ticker shows up, it is wrong. I haven't updated it in a while. Isn't JC the most awesome healthy eating program? I don't say I'm on a diet, I'm eating healthy.

Good luck to everyone!!

I had my WI yesterday and was down 4.4!! Good start (but i did switch from afternoon to morning so next week might be a lot smaller) so I have 19.4 more to go

I would love to join! I pledge 12 lbs by Sept 1st
I had my WI today and lost 2.5!!

Angela, you are always so motivating! I love reading your posts! I wonder if you're not on a plateau right now? I know lots of people have them after losing 50lbs, give or take. What's in the Jenny manual regarding plateaus? Oh, and congratulations to me! I am no longer a trial member. I was so impressed with what I saw my first 4 weeks, I up & bought the premium membership! Anywho, your celebrations this week might just shock your body into giving up another pound or two. Well, happy B-day to you, and many more, and a virtual pinch to lose an inch, or 2, or 10....Cathy.

Hey Angela,
I weighed in today, and am minus 2 pounds exactly.
which leaves me at 28 more to go!!

Yay!!!

Good Luck everyone!!

We can all do this, we just have to set our minds to it!!

I'm in for 15!

Today was WI day and I was down 2lbs for a new total of 35.6lbs - YAH

Oooohhh, I was BAD today! Even though my WI isn't until Tuesday, I stepped on the scale TODAY, just to make sure my weight gain had turned around. As of today, I'm down 13lbs total, for an unofficial loss this week of 2.8lbs. WHEW!!! Well, I'll let you know my OFFICIAL loss come Tuesday! Good luck, everyone! Cathy

Hey Cathy,

Good Job on the loss!! i hope your WI is successful!!

looking forward to finding out how much you end up losing!!

Good LUCK everyone!!

OK my official WI was today and I am down -3.4 pounds for this week! I am sooo excited and relieved, last week I had only lost .04....but I stuck with it hoping for a big drop and there it is! Congrats everyone on your losses, awesome job!

Hi everyone! I don't guess I posted last week, but I've lost 1.4 this week, for a total for this challenge of 3.2! Wooo Hooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

I lost 2.2 lbs this week for a total of 4.8 lbs so far for this challenge!! YAY!!

Beth

Hi, everyone! I did my weigh in bright & early this morning & lost.....2LBS! Thank goodness the weight is now moving in the right direction! LOL. Here's hoping every one of you a successful week & many more to come.

WOW, everyone is doing so great! Adding in my 0.8 loss this morning brings everyone's total to 26.1! A few people haven't sent me their info yet... imagine how big that number could be if everyone did!

I could not believe that I had a loss this week, people! 2 birthdays with CAKE & ICE CREAM, several unplanned meals out, etc. Just a few days ago I was nearly 4 pounds UP (I know, bad me for hopping on the scale so much)... but hopping back on JC 100% after all the parties and treats, tons and tons of water, and a whole lotta exersize have totally paid off!

Now to ROCK THE PLAN this week and get to ONEDERLAND! I'm not even going to do any halfway days this week, I want to get there so badly. I haven't seen a number on the scale below 200 in almost 14 years, and I think its finally time for the 100's to make their appearance, dont you?

Take care everyone!
Angela

You just go, Angela ... awesome job!!! I hate those weeks when you have to attend parties or special dinners ... but it feels SO good to hop back on the program the very next meal and then have your efforts reflected on the scale. I have a feeling you'll be in the 100's VERY soon! Good luck

Wow i can't believe how many pounds have been added to this challenge!! i sure hope we can all do it!! maybe some of us...not me...can make up for some of us...like me...lol.

im trying!! i weight in again on friday and will for sure post what i have lost!!

angela...

isn't it great how we can cheat and still lose weight!! we need to stop worrying so much huh?
did you get excerise in?
i think my excersise is saving me alot!!
I hope to see my 100s by the end of this challenge too!!
im sooo excited!!

Jewely!

you had such a great loss!! way to bounce back!!

catgirl 66

i lost exactly 2 pounds last week too!!
i hope to do the same this week!!

Cindylou,
i love that name by the way...it sounds soooo sweet!! lol.
Good job on your weightloss!! keep it coming!! lol.

Good Luck Everyone!!

Hey there! Well I had a horrible week and gained 1.4 pounds (not exactly sure why which sucks) but ya so now i'm only down 3 lbs for this challenge.

well...a disappointing wi....worked out so hard this week...love my new Wii active...but the scale said -0.1. I guess a loss is a loss and I should be happy with it but it is disappointing when you feel that you thought you did more. I am sure it will reflect next week and of course I am PMSing like crazy so my emotions are all over the place! I refuse to use that as an excuse but instead keep my head in the frame of mind that next week the scale will be kinder to me!

I lost 2.2 lbs this week for the challenge!! 24.4 lbs left to go!

Beth

Hi all,

Well, after losing 40+ pounds I decided to go off jenny in May. Was bored. Well, I gained 10 lbs and feel like a slug! So back on Jenny I go! Yay! I feel revitalized and ready! Eager to lose this 10 lbs plus the rest of the weight I need to lose and never find again! So please put me down for 20lb lost by Sept 1st. These challenges always work so well for me. Good luck everyone!

Hi, everyone, down 1.6lbs this week for a total of 3.6. Good luck & keep up all the good work!

ONDERLAND, PEOPLE!!! I weighed in this morning at 199.4!!! I've also lost a total of 28 inches. Not bad, huh? And I'm down a total of 3 lbs. for this challange. Now to just stay in onderland for the next month while I have houseguests! It wont be easy, but few things really worth doing in life ARE easy, are they?

A big congrats to everyone who has helped bring our total to over 30 lbs.!!! And to those who are struggling, keep going! I know you can do it! Everyone goes thru a rough spot now and then. Seriously, I am the poster child for getting thru those rough spots, and here I am in "ONDERLAND" for the first time in probably 14 years! IT CAN BE DONE!!!

Take care,
Angela

Congrats to you, Angela! That is awesome! Wish I was in ONDERLAND enjoying it with you. I am trying to get there! I will eventually, I know. Until then-----keep up the good work and I will too!

Look out!! I've lost a whopping .2 pounds so far this challenge!! woo-hoo :-)

I am down 1.6 this week!

I lost 1.8 this week, for a total of 5 lbs. down on this challenge. 20.2 to go ... I can do it! I can do it! I can do it! Congrats to all

Whoops, I just realized that I didn't update last week!!

My WI was this morning and I was down another 2.6lbs for a total of 7lbs down in this challenge!

GREAT JOB, Angela - how is ONEderland???

Lindsay
