Well I still haven't looked but am wearing jeans that I haven't worn in over 7 mos!!!! I finished boot camp but won't weigh in until I start the next one on the 26th....so this has been a LONG time since I weighed in...I started at 250 when I joined so I don't know where I am....I know it has to be at least a bit lower....I would rather have muscle and be toned and have my goal jeans on then a certain number...but in order for that to happen the weight has to go....
THANKS BANKS!!!! This is great!!!!!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.....may you all be blessed!!!

:happy: banks, tomorrow is the day and I really want to get on that scale! I hope everyone has a good experience with Thanksgiving and with getting on the scale.

i dont even have a scale in my home so i just really try to pay attention to the way that my clothes fit me to see if i'm making any progress. and i know after time pants can stretch when you start walking around in them so i like to put them on right out of the dryer to see if it gets any easier to put them on as time goes by hahaha:blushing: but thats my little thing since i dont have a scale...i get confused by them cause if i replace fat with muscle i might still weigh the same and maybe even a little more, right? anywho...i can do this challenge

kjllose

I finally used the scale:glasses: I lost 5.2 lbs and made my Thanksgiving goal. Now no scale till Dec 28

banks1850

My weigh in is tomorrow. I am so curious. I know I am smaller now, because I am on my last belt notch and soon I will need to buy a new one. After this I'll be weighing in once every 2 weeks, just because I will be at my goal soon, and want to get UP to my new goal after that which is, down to 195 then back up to 205 with muscle. I have a feeling I'll be weighing in at around 203 or 204. I was 213 or so when we started this a month ago.

Go banks, aslavich, and Karen ! Nicely done!

So my final tally is this.

I started in mid-September at about 223 lbs

I started this challenge at about 212 on Oct. 24th I think.

I am now at 203 lbs. Which is great. That means in
just over 2 months I have lost 20 lbs AND I can now do 3 miles
running and am in better health overall. I am exstatic about my
progress and feel I have defeated the lure of the scale. I will
continue to be vigilant about my obsessive personality but I feel
like I have reached some important goals and can't wait till
I can say I am in the 100's. Keep up the great work all!

Go for it guys. I am only doing 2 weeks because I have something I am working on and it requires me to check every couple of weeks but I'll do it for that long.

Way to go Sugar! Great job.

SUGARPLUM098

Thank you guys for the support and motivation

ok kjllose im in with you. no weighing until Dec 28th ( my weigh in was supposed to be on the 19th though), but i'm in with you.

i usually weigh in in wednesdays and i don't wanna break the trend so i might weigh on dec 19th or i might just go as far as Jan 3rd.

:drinker: (tea) to our journey of weight loss and a healthy lifestyle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dellanno31

Great advice....Watch how your clotes fit, how may belt notches you have lost, how you feel, THEN weigh yourself.

SUGARPLUM098

are you guys still up to this cause im still going strong. No weighing until dec 19th for me!:flowerforyou:

kjllose

I can't do it! I really have to weigh myself to keep going:grumble: I find if I don't weigh myself I don't feel accountable and I've now gained 2lbs after losing for so long. So it's goodby:sad: to this thread and back to posting my weight to feel accountable. :embarassed: See yall in another thread.~Karen
