Setting myself up for a fall?
No flippin' way!
Christmas Challenge 2009
And I quote from my on blog:
"I am aiming to be 264 lbs/120 kg by christmas. A BIG challenge, it means I want to loose 45 lbs/20 kg in 18 weeks, may be a bit too presumptious. Will give it some more thought. I might set myself up to fall!"
I am setting myself this target, and will document on it in my blog. I have lost 28.2 lbs/12.8 kg in last 10 weeks, making up for 3.3 lbs/1.5 kg weightgain in those 10 weeks. So a total effort of 31.5 lbs/14.3 kg. If I take that up to 20 weeks, it would mean a possible weightloss of 63.0 lbs/28.6 kg. That would leave room for some error. Because 20 weeks is a loooooooong time not to slip up, veeeeeeeeeeery .long!
In numbers it looks like this, 1.0 kg/2.2 lbs a week. That should be possible.

That's quite a challenge you've set yourself. Good luck with it!
I personally don't like timed weight loss challenges. I don't care whether I get to a specific weight by a certain time because this is my lifestyle now.
Oh... let me think about this!!! This might be the perfect time to join a challenge. I am feeling restless and want to do something - And the weightloss thing is still hanging over my head.
To be honest, I have asked my husband to make a major change in his routine and to give up something because it was causing so much stress in our marriage that I was thinking of leaving. He has agreed to do so and I know it is so hard... I want to join him in effort, even though I don't have the same problem he does. But I do have this weight thing...
I think my goal will be to get under 200. I was so close before but no more. I'm back up to 224. If I can do more, I will, but losing 24 lbs by Christmas should definitely be doable!
