5lbs in December challenge!

[vesperholly]

I didn't see one started yet, and the 5lb in November challenge was a great motivator for me :jump_jack , so who's up for

-5 lbs in December?

I'll start:

Nov. 30: 198 (SW)
Dec. 6: 196.6 (-1.4)
Dec. 13: 195 (-1.6)
Dec. 20: 194 (-1)
Dec. 27: (193 GW)

Let's do this buddies!!! :bcbsalute

I am also in. I have a ton of family coming into town for New Years, so I want to look great. As incentive, I ordered a new pair of jeans...one size smaller than I wear right now (although I tried them on and they "fit", by "fit" I mean they buttoned and I could jump around in them!!) So, I would like to lose 10 lbs in December.

Just stick to the plan, and come back to this thread each week and edit your post with your WI progress.

At the end of the month, you can total up whether you made 5 lbs total or not.

[SteelersFan43]

I set my goal at 8 this month, and I have lost 5 so far. So I have 1 week left in December to lose 3 lbs, so it's not looking like I'm going to reach this month's goal. but I'm still satisfied with the loss I'm at now. December turned out to be harder than I though, and I'll be satisfied with any loss.
