Here's the challenge. Lose weight this month, and have some fun. That's it. Pick one day of the week and weigh in on that day.

One more twist. To join this challenge, make the commitment to log on and let us all know how it's going.

Im in on this one. This is going to be the big month for me. Im going to hit 170! I will be under my original goal weight. That puts me only 10 pounds off of my ultimate goal.

I'm in...will weigh-in on mondays. wishing everyone luck!

Hey, erin, welcome to the challenge. We usually have a bit of craziness here, but seeing that you are from NYC you should be used to it.

OK, Monday, Sept 1. Official weigh in for me. 208.4. Pretty bad August, but I'm really going to kill it this month. I'm not looking to get under 200 this month. I'm looking to kill it and get right to 195. I have a strong week planned. I'm getting back to the exercise every day thing that I was doing, and no more of the bad food.

I'll jump in too.

Start weight today is 342.2 lbs. My weighing day is usually Sunday.

My goal? Probably to make it to...let's say 335 by the end of the month. That should be achievable!

I am in, weighed in at 164.7 this morning my plan is to loose 6-8 lbs, hopefully:P

I'm in! I have no idea what I weigh since I still have no scale, but I have two goals for the month. First goal, is to buy a scale. Second goal is to be back to 210 so that I'm back on track to where I was before the big move.

Life is crazy. I survived my first week as a real teacher. All the kids survived too, so that is a big plus. Now I am just trying to develop some routines and get back in the swing of a healthy lifestyle.

This month is going to be a re-establishing one for me. The number is not my main concern, I'm just trying to get back into my good habits.

Have no fear, I'm still here!

Good luck on your goals!

Congrats on surviving your first week! :P What do you teach?

I wont be joining the challenge this month, but I will be here rooting everyone on!!

Rock out and kick some tail guys!

San, Aleeluh, good to have you here.

Jess, the first week is the second hardest. Parent teacher conference week is the hardest. You'll be fine.

MissD, the challenge is really about showing up. Stop in often and join the madness.

Thanks! I teach first grade. We actually had a really good week. I'm still very stressed, but its going well so far.

Went running yesterday and again today. I'm not happy with my times, but I got out and ran. We'll see what tomorrow brings.

I will do my best to show up with my pom poms! Life has been crazy since the semester began... I feel like I'm going in circles!!

I also ran today, just a quick 2 miles. I have a head cold, but it didnt seem to bother me this morning... however tonight I'm hurtn'... Hopefully it passes before too long!

I'd like to get in on this. I just found this place and it looks really motivating. I really really really need some help. I'm currently at 185, I've gained wayyy too much weight this year. The sad part is that I'm going to school for fitness so I really have to get myself into shape. I've had zero motivation and I'm hoping to change that.
