    Alrighty, weighed in at 212.6, 1.2 loss. Not as much as I'd wanted, but I'm blaming it on TOM. :glasses:

    Start: 225
    Now: 212.6
    Goal: 200

    Just 12.6 more to go... I wonder if I should change it to 199 just so I can say I'm under 200 again. 200 is just such a nice, round number though. :bigsmile:

    LOL - my goals when I started were always xx9.9 just to say that I beat that number - so 249.9 is under 250.....LOL Typically that .1 of a pound is so close that it's the same thing really :)

    Congratulations, sweetie! Gah, plateaus suck don't they!? I'm so glad you concurred yours! A lot of people give up during a plateau, which is such a huge shame. To throw away all that progress. Anyway, you're doing awesome!

    Good job to everyone on the 300+ lbs lost as a group!!! Let's see if we can double that, or get as close to 600 as possible.

    My weigh in day is Monday mornings. After a couple of less than inspiring weeks, I lost 3lbs this week! Nothing like seeing those numbers go down to inspire you to go out and exercise. As we head into our last few weeks of the challenge, I thought we could start another one right after this one ends. I think a challenge to lose 5-8lbs by Thanksgiving would be great. I based the amount on a sensible weekly weight loss of 1-2lbs. We could call it "Thanksgiving Thinner".

    Awww thanks! :flowerforyou: I think the lesson I learned during my plateau is that losing weight and being healthy is not just a physical thing, but mental as well. I was frustrated, but I just kept plowing through and figured one day I'll see the results.
