Oh, I'd looooooove to lose 25lbs. by Christmas. What a fine goal! Dec. 15th will be my one-year mark with Atkins, and I'd be pleased as punch to be down 25 more pounds by then. That'd be GOAL for me (and then some).

Woo hoo!

Great challenge, Febe. Slow Boat riders need long-term goals like this. Yay!

Ok, I'm in. My goal is to get to my target weight by Christmas. Given my rate of loss so far (4 months to lose 10 pounds), it's in the ballpark to shoot for 14 in the next (almost)4. By adding in the gym time, 3 times a week, I think I can I can do it. Maybe I'll add a bit of stationary bike work on the days we don't do the gym, just to add some aerobic stuff everyday. My job is SOOOOOO sedentary!

There's a week long vacation in there that will be an interesting challenge. Seven days in Jamaica with all those rum punch drinks will be a nice test of will power&lt;G&gt;. Of course, I'll also be diving while we're there ... talk about a fat-burning fest!

Yes, Febe, you are right! No one can blow a challenge like good ole me lol!!! I'm in, what do I have to lose? Maybe just maybe this will be the one that I will be successful at. The timing is great with the kids back at school and me back at the gym 3 days a week. I will weigh on Fridays, as usual!

ok you can count me in.

I've been Atkinsing for 2 months and have lost 29 pounds. Since we have 4 months to Christmas I think I can make it. I'm sure I can with everyone's support.
