    I bought my fat quarter already and weighed myself this morning so I'm set and ready to go! lol I have a lot to lose so even if I lose 10lbs this month I'll be thrilled. Good luck everyone!

    I agree with Laureneberhard its the largest percentof weight loss that would be more of a challenge. I have also lost 30 lbs already and I am hitting a slow period, where as many of us that have lost the weight hit a slow down period. I'm for it!

You usually lose more in the beginning of a weight loss program than after you've been in it for awhile. We did this at work once and it worked out well for all. I'd be glad to do the percentages at the end of the month. What do you think?
    I had thought of that too but once again I wouldn't have the time to figure out the percentage of so many people. This months rules are posted and I don't want to change them, however if you are will to take on the job I would PREFER to do it the percentage next month. Just reminded me around Sept 28 so I post the rules with it being the percentage not the pounds lost.

    I'm in again. This gave me the motivation to loose 11.4 this month. Hopefully I can start exercising also if I get my leg/back problem fixed which will help me even more.

    Got my fq alredy to be sent on its way. (Is that a positive thought??) Maybe I should place in a box so when I get the rest of the fq I'll have the box and fq waiting for the rest! lol Not after seeing the biggest looser lost 17 lbs. WOW.
