I was part of a group a while back and we did weekly weigh ins for accountability, what do you guys think? It really did help make me feel more focused knowing that there would be people seeing that I was (or wasn't) working hard.

    That sounds great! Struggling to stay on top of everything with the holiday season, work, kids, etc. Not looking forward to stepping on the scale this week- but glad to have some accountability.

    I would totally do that. What day of the week do we want to weigh in. I usually weigh myself on Saturday mornings, but Im willing to weigh in on the same day everyone else wants to.

    I'd check in on whatever day you guys want to. I do the biggest loser challenge and you have to check in between Thursday and Sunday night. If I keep joining accountability groups I'll have check ins every day and no room for slacking off! :D LOL

    I’m a couple of days late. 155 (+3 lbs). I’ve had a tough week- first my period, then low iron, then a bad cold. But going to stay accountable & get back on track!

    Back and ready to join! This is my 2nd time losing weight with MFP.
    I was thinnest at the end of my first semester in grad school (started around 145 pounds, ended just under 130, probably due to stress and low budget making it easier to log because I had to cook everything and also I ate the same thing every day), but by the end of grad school I had gained it all back and then a few pounds more (probably also due to stress, and I had stopped logging).
    My goal is to get to and then maintain around 115~120.

    SW in September: 148

    Hey all happy Saturday!
    I went the wrong direction this week but not by much. I definitely over ate yesterday but underate the rest of the week so it should level out. Hoping for a real loss next week :/ I’ve been stuck in the same place forever :(

    Joining the stuck club. I weigh during the week too and had a few days of 136s, but i guess that was just water weight?? Anyway, glad it's gone!
    Happy Saturday to y'all, too!

    Down 5 lbs this week due to being sick with bronchitis and not eating much. Hopefully I can keep the losses going to get to my goal!
