Weird to think I was still in the 160s when I started this challenge! I am exactly 10lb off my goal but my goal was always ambitious (it was my goal weight)

    Well, I'm far from goal, but I'm a whole lot closer than I would be if I hadn't tried! I made it about 52% of the way there, more than half way. And I'm in week two of being in Onederland, a very good thing!

    April loss: 4 lbs
    May loss: 4.6 lbs
    June loss: 2.4 lbs
    July loss: 1.6 lbs

    Total loss: 12.6 lbs

    Change in BMI: 33.8 --> 31.7

    11.6 lbs to my next goal (my 4th of July goal of 185), which is a BMI of "merely" overweight (29.9). Then I can start working down toward a truly fit weight.

    Thanks to everyone for sharing their stories and the support and friendship!

    Again I want to say :happy: THANK YOU SO MUCH for setting up this challenge.

    I would like to humbly beg you to do another one!! :flowerforyou:

    Even though I did not get where I wanted to be, I certainly am better off than I was!

    On Sunday June 15 I was only 2.4 from my goal. Then I reverted back to old habits - trying to eat my stress away.

    Original SW: 272.1
    Challenge SW: 259.4
    Challenge GW: 244.4
    CW: 248.6

    Original Starting Weight: 152
    Challenge Starting Weight: 143.3
    Final Challenge Weight: 141

    Well, I only lost 2.3 pounds during this challenge. It didn't help that last week was a beach vacation week! My ultimate goal is 125. I'm hoping to get to at least 135 by the end of summer.

    Happy 4th everyone!

    Well I got back from vacation late last night, so I will not be weighing my self today (for the next week actually) I know it'll be up due to water weight from not eating so stellar over vacation. I'll be sure to post back then to let you know how I faired, though I'm not expecting much of a change.

    Thank you to Shmru and Mule for putting this together!! :drinker: :drinker:

    Thanks to all that participated, we made a bit of progress--it's never as much as you want but there it is. I had a modest goal but encountered the struggle losing the last 10 pounds, it ain't easy. I will keep trying. Special thanks to Shmu for the IT support, great service and great performance as usual.

    See you on MFP--friend me at will.

    I actually made it to 163 this week. I'm 10 pounds under my challenge goal which surprised me. I think this week's loss is partly water as I haven't been working out as much.

    Thank you so much for this challenge!
