Awesome job jimb376mfp! You have been such an inspiration for me this year!1

@tammierlewis Thanks! It has been a struggle to lose a pound a week BUT it has kept me focused on continuing my weight loss struggle the past two years. The first two years (2013-2014) I saw the pounds come off (90#) The third year was maintaining my first 100# loss.
This challenge has helped me get to where I NEVER thought I would be...

Start: 1/1/2017
Start weight: 161
Goal weight: 120
Current weight: 131
This week's weight change: +.8
Total weight loss: 30.0
Up another +.8. Got a lot to focus on in the new year. 3 more weeks of holiday gatherings. Moderation is key.
Continuing with at least an hour of walking each day. Completed week 3 of C25K. Might take me a couple of weeks to get the 5 minute runs comp!eted for week 4. Slow steady progress is better than a backslide.

You all have been amazing! Congrats on all the weight loss. Will y'all be starting a new one for 2018? If so, I'd like to join in. I see a couple year long threads. Has someone re-started this one?
Thank you.

This week: -.4
2017 52/52 Challenge TOTAL -43.4
This week's success: -.4 during Christmas. Ended the year with A LOSS!
Even though I didn’t lose 52# or hit my personal goal of 186 it was s GOOD YEAR! I got to ONEDERLAND a place I have not been to since? 1970?
Next weeks challenge: START the year with A ONE POUND LOSS!
I no longer have 52# to lose but I will continue to log in until I hit my official WW GW. I have not yet set it in stone, I was thinking 185 but my PCP said how about 179? (I’m 5’8” and will be 70yo in February).
I have not been below 200# since? I got down to 202# in 1986 and never got close until 2017!
This challenge has really helped me to FOCUS on just how important it is to really be aware of how much and what I eat. And how much activity I get in, my main exercise is aqua aerobics, swimming laps and walking our dog Sadie. I plan to continue with being active and signed up for Chair Yoga classes beginning 8 January.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!6 -

Last weigh in for 2017. Didn't reach my goal but I am well on my way. I have loved being part of this challenge. It has helped me to remain focused and accountable. Hope it continues for 2018. I like the format and encouragement from everyone.
I didn't get any exercise in this past week. I will restart C25K with week 4 this week. There's a local 5K on March 31 that I want to do for my first (maybe only) organized run. I will be ready for it!
Happy New Year!1 -

While I would have liked to have reached my goal weight by the end of the year, I am so very happy with the changes over the past 50 weeks. When I think back to my state of mind this time last year - fed up with my weight gain and general appearance - I am so happy to be where I am now. A few more pounds to go but I know I will get there.
Happy New Year to everyone!3
