Hello there!
Weigh-in number five, as much ahead as behind us.
I think we have done great so far. And hey! if we have come so far we must go all the way, don't you think?
I lost one pound. I thought I would lose a bit more since I got the flu and I have been eating very little the last threee days but, at the same time, I stopped training and I am drinking tons of tea with honey.
Good luck everybody!

    Wow - half way!? Amazing.

    @ollerwe - Congrats on a pound lost while sick - I always have a hard time losing while sick because it's hard for me to exercise.

    I hope someone will continue this on after. I'd like to try another 10 weeks.

    We'll see how many are interested in continuing when we near the end. If there is enough interest, then we can open a new group for another challenge.

    I'm just thrilled I've gotten half-way to my 100 day goal. Part of me looks at losing 9 lbs in the next 5 weeks, and doesn't think I can pull it off. I've just got to remember that I've dropped 11 in the last 5, so another 9 shouldn't be an insurmountable goal.

    Sorry I did not post yesterday. I have pneumonia I did not even leave my bed. I did finally weigh myself I did it in the afternoon so I don't know how accurate it is. So I lost 2 lbs and still going. Woo Hoo! and now Im going back to bed.

    Vaunche, hope your feeling better. I love this little group. I don't post much but I read a lot. :-) I'm feeling really good. Love the 10 day weigh ins. Will continue if you make another group. Will also add anyone to my friends list that wants. Keep up the great work.

    @Silverdracos‌ Fantastic - you are killing it. And.. technically we have 6 weigh-ins left, not 5 (First weigh-in was day 0, so 11 weigh ins total), so you can put this in the bag for sure!

    @vaunche‌ I hope you feel better!! I lost weight while I was sick near the beginning of my weight loss journey.. It was kind of fun, actually. I lost 5 lb in 3 days... What was more fun was fighting to keep it off as I got better. It was a nice jump-start.

    Of course it's ok! Sorry about the wrong direction though... That's incentive to make next one go the right way!

    I weighed in late too. Sorry. I put in what I was Monday (my normal weigh-in day) Can't get the hang of this 10 day thing.

    On a good note I'm down 18.5 lbs from our starting weigh in. =)
