    Soooooooo, I had my whoosh. I think. I'm back to exactly what I weighed on week 3. ^_^ However, it's about to be shark week so there's that AND I added more strenuous exercise last week. All in all, I'm happy.

    SW: 237.6
    W1: 234.4
    W2: 232
    W3: 227.6 (added exercise)
    W4: 230.4 (added DDP Yoga 6x a week)
    W5: 227.6 whoosh?

    I'm down 2.8 from last week, -10 again for the challenge. I was hoping for a little extra gone in my whoosh but maybe it's not a full whoosh. Who knows!

    I took the advice from last week to heart and haven't been letting the weigh-ins bother me. I added DDP Yoga on last Weigh-in Day and have done it every day but yesterday - my new Rest Day. I figured it would be smart to rest the day before weigh-in to give my muscles a chance to recover.

    All in all, yes - happy - mostly because I can already tell a difference in my strength from last week from the yoga. My mini-goal is to just complete the challenge with at least 5 more lbs gone by New Years. It think I can do it, especially since my husband and I are planning a Keto holiday meal AND he's going to be doing keto and exercise with me once he's back from HVAC training (Dec 16th). YAY for family fitness.

    Yay! Also I'm interested in this yoga. Do you go to a class or is it at home?

    @ashcky I do them at home. We have the DVDs, but I've been using the DDPYogaNow app on my tablet for ease of doing the workout in my bedroom so I can lock the dogs out ^_^ It's free for the first 30 days and I'm taking advantage of that until I subscribe :D

    Hi Everyone,

    I lost 1.2 lbs this week, brining my total for this challenge to 5.2 lbs. I won't lie - I'd be happier if it was happening faster, and more consistently, but I'm reminding myself that at least it's happening. This will be a tough week for me - we're going to Toronto for 6 days. That's 6 days of staying in a hotel and eating restaurant food plus we're going to be super busy, virtually the whole time. I'm going to try my hardest to ensure I drink water, walk everyday and order from the healthy parts of the menu. Here are my stats:

    OSW: 238 lbs
    UGW: 140ish lbs
    SW for this Challenge: 202.4 lbs
    CW: 197.2 lbs
    GW for this Challenge: 187.4 lbs
    Weight Lost for this Challenge: 5.2 lbs
    Weight remaining to lose for this Challenge: 9.8 lbs

    Have a wonderful week everyone and best of luck! <3

    MFPSW: 230
    UGW: 150

    CSW: 211.8
    CTW: 197

    W1: 216
    W2: 209.8
    W3: 210
    W4: 206.4
    W5: 204.4

    I had a rocky start at the beginning of this challenge. Now I have found a happy balance for my food and exercise. I am so excited. Although there is only 4 weeks left, I feel like reaching my goal of 197 is realistic. 7.4 Lbs can be done in a month. I just have to make sure that I stick with it. Thank you to everyone who is going at it daily and posting their results. It really motivates me to see everyone else's results!

    I have been very bad about getting on here and I did not weigh for 2 weeks, Thanksgiving and had strep. But I weighed today and lost 4.5 pounds. It's exactly what I needed to give me that boost of confidence to continue on! That and a friend I hadn't seen in a month or so said I'd lost weight! :) Made my day!! :smiley:
