Good luck for the final weigh in tomorrow everyone!

Count me in!  I'm looking forward to another great month

I will update in a couple days (although I won't have access to a scale on the 1st, so I will be one day late).

September! is the month! I start to LOSE!1!

Well, I can has hope, anyway. Count me in.

I'm in again! I'll have my weight for you on the 2nd...I weigh myself every other day because I run early in the morning on those in-between days. :)

in again!!!!

count me in also!! hopefully i will have a scale by then lol

I wanna join! My very first challenge. Im so excited and motivated!!

Hey all, I'm getting back on track.. finally! I've got a great support system this time around. My highest weight was 265 back in July 2007, and in May of this year I got down to 190, I am now back up into the 200's and I'm quite disappointed with myself. Oh well, time to start anew, good luck all!

thanks restless for hosting these challenges ... they are really great motivators

(oh yes, and I'll unfortunately be giving my sept. 1st weight a couple of days late too ... I won't have internet in my new apartment for awhile ... eek!)
