    I picked 220 just because it sounded good and I thought that would be the most I could ever hope to achieve. I am seriously reconsidering lowering it to 215 or even 210. I am pretty proud of what I have so far accomplished and believe I may have been selling myself short and that even though it may take a bit longer, it would certainly be reachable. Having actually said and written this down, I am now going to officially change my settings. Apolloag, could you change my Goal weight to 210 on the next chart? Thanks guys, I think.

    I've found a new challenge. I just thought about it, and although I've been in this competition just as long as everyone else, I've lost the least amount of weight. Now I'm motivatd again! It's this competitive spirit I have. I never like being last no matter what the circumstance. So I'm movivng in the right direction again. I need a few more 6lbs weeks like I had a few weigh ins ago. So maybe your motivation is making sure you're not the one I pass...lol

    This is great. I am always up for a challenge and some motivation. I'm only 12 pounds from you so don't let me catch you. I am feeling like I am having another good week. We'll find out on Sunday. Game on :)

    1. I'm kind of confused. Your chart weight loss says about 20lbs, but your ticker says 47? Did you lose before you started here? I'm only going for chart weights. I just can't be last there anymore. (oh, and the TWL coulmn is what I'm focusing on)

    2. Next Sunday will be the true test, because I've alredy weighed in for this week...

    3. Game On!!!!!!!!!!

    Swilson, yes I started losing around Sept/Oct of last year. I didn't find MFP until playing with my new itouch after Christmas and joined in January.

    I got challenged by a Pinoy and he is on my back all the time. And it seems to work (at least for me), LW 116.2 and CW 115.1. However, maybe I need to arrange a no-fly zone over the east of Holland if Mr. Mackoy keeps chasing me like that. 'll start preparing a resolution ;-)

    Sun is shining over here, maybe I can get the family enthousiastic for a nice long bike ride this afternoon. Curious to the other results, succes to you all.

    Hey bigedd i thought you are the one who challenge me not the other way around but i guess it work for the both of us. I need to go the gym for my official weigh in but so far from my home scales shows at least 2 lbs lost.

    I hit 225.6 today. Slowly, but surely I guess!

    I'm going to visit my family early May so I'm really going to step it up from here on. Haven't seen them in over half a year.

    Good job everyone!

    Today 266
    Apolloag could you please change my GW to 210? Thanx

    My wife has been out of town regarding a family emergency leaving me to be a bachelor for the week. I was able to really put in extra time exercising but was waaay low on my net cals all week. I actually took a sneak peak at the scale yesterday morning and I had lost 6 pounds. Think I ate more yesterday than the previous few days combined though. I did burn almost 1500 cals yesterday.

    Well, at first I was going by the MFP calculator for cals burned. I got an HRM about 3 weeks ago and found that the numbers from MFP are much higher than my HRM which I believe to be much more accurate. I will give you what I did 3 weeks ago and this week.

    Feb. 28 thru March 6, 4 hours 15 minutes, burned 3,408 cals
    March 14 thru March 20, 8 hours 28 minutes, burned 4,549

    I still haven't exercised today but it will be a short one as I have tons of house cleaning and then going to the airport to pick up my wife. Also, like I mentioned earlier, I worked out quite a bit more this week because my wife was out of town and I had the time to dedicate more to exercising. Don't think it will be quite this much next week. Also, I exercise everyday. I have only missed 2 days since New Years.
