I'm in. I'm a newbie too... signed up awhile back but really started in earnest yesterday. Goal is lose 30 pounds by Christmas. I'm hoping this thread and you guys can keep me motivated. 
P.S. If the Rangers can make it to the World Series, then I can lose 30 pounds! lol

Darlean - Thanks! I have been killing myself to get this weight off. Nothing like aneorxic 19-20 year-olds motivating you to be thin.... I am starting Nursing school in January and all the 'kids' seem so thin and young.
Princessmeggy - I don't want to be a downer -- but losing 30 pounds by Christmas - might not be possible - that is if you want to lose it healthfully and keep it off. You would have to lose almost 4 pounds a week.... And thats pretty difficult. I am not saying you can't do it - just trying to help you find a goal that might be a little more attainable - so you don't fail and get discouraged...

30 pounds for xmas?? i aim at 30 kilos!
I think anyone could easily lose 15kg by christmas! 14 weeks is a long time.
I am looking forward to lose 30 kg which is about 60 pounds and i have already lost more than 10 pounds this week alone.
logging all my food its helping me a lot and also staying below 20gr of carbs a day is doing great!
I am sure you`ll make it!
just eat less a lot less and just eat when you are seated, with no tv or pc.
put away all serving plates and cooking pots and pans with extras so they are all in containers in the fridge and not close at hand for helpings.
Eat less in the evening, have your main meal at lunch.
Avoid milk in any form, milk is for children and puppies, for bodies that need to grow and develop, its not ment for adults.
My slender friend said to me, noone in pathologically fat, it`s all excuses, (1 in a million maybe) no fat people came out of Aushwitz in 1945.(out of 6 millions???) i know its harsh but if you think of it, its true.
I can understand trust me. I live in Italy and they are all beautifully in shape,
7 years in the uk and a pregnancy busted my weight!
Now i am back home and i dont fit in, there is nothing above size 14US i mean NOTHING unless you want to look like a circus tent.

It's contagious
almeeker, don't feel too bad, I've had the same issues this week, except I didn't behave myself so well towards the end of the week. I'm up a little as well, but we still have time to take care of that! Don't give up!!! We're in this together, remember.

I'm finding this to be a motivating force for me. I'm pushing myself to keep going because all I want for Christmas is a slimmer me. OMG I think I just quoted one of our modified Christmas jingles.
