This site began in June of 2005 with the intial challenge to lose 20 pounds before Labor Day 2005. The second challenge was to do it again in 2006 (because I only lost 10 in 2005) Now the challenge has been renewed to loose 25 lbs by March 2nd (Greg's B-day)who issued the challenge the last time we had lunch see "FORTYSOMETHING Challenge". So I have renewed my efforts and am in a "competition" to lose 25 lbs by 3-2-07.
