2006 Christmas Wish List

[dawg 0]

Alright, maybe it is a bit early, but I figured there's no harm in setting an early wish!

I've seen a few folks talking about what they want to be "at" by christmas. Either sizes in clothes or a certain weight.

Well I figured - I will set my goal of what I WISH for Christmas and see if anyone else wants to join me in making that wish come true.

Sort of a commitment thread, sort of a challenge and sort of a "support" thingy.

--------------------------------------------------

Dawg's Christmas Wish:

I Wish I was 204 pounds by Christmas. This will make my total loss (since joining LBT) of 103 pounds, and place me in the "normal" BMI for my height.

I wish I would weigh 199 lbs. at Christmas!

LOL um...i already started this thread. Great minds think alike dawg.

[FunnyDuddies 6]

it needs to be restarted though because my leaving threw a wrench in keeping the goal and weigh in page up to date.

My christmas goal is 230. I am currently 296.

I wondering if I should lower my goal for Christmas? Since having surgery, I am down to 281, my Christmas goal is 275. I think I will make that by middle/end of Sept. What would be a reasonable goal? 260? 250?

I have no clue how fast/slow this weight is gonna come off.

I think I am going in to the "just got banded" freak out stage.

Scared/hopeful/nervous-- you know, the old "oh dear sweet God, is this thing really gonna help me" phase

Well shame on me! I did a search but didn't find it. Why don't you fire it back up and we can let this one die?

[FunnyDuddies 6]

Well,

If ya'll want, we can do running totals or whatever ya like I'm open to ideas.

[503-250 1]

I'll jump in....

My Christmas wish (Hanukkah and Kwanzaa too!) is to be 400lbs. That would mean I need to lose 103lbs since 12/06 , or 67 lbs from today.

I think its a lofty goal, but I don't mind a challenge.

I wish to be at my final goal weight (between 189-199) and in size 34 pants. I'm at 217 now, so I bettre step up the exercise... it gets harder to lose at this point, I can tel ya!

I want to be in 34 waist pants, because then when folks ask me how much I lost from my waistline, I can say happily... 2 feet.
