    So many great jobs everyone!

    LW 159.2 (up .2 due to water)
    Yesterday 156.4 (and that's the number I'm using, because I was over sodium yesterday, so today was up just a little.)

    That's two week's losses, so I'm back on track! I really want to end this challenge at my goal weight. Just 14 pounds to go!

    Hello Sunshine friends,

    LW: 256.6
    CW: 255.8

    .8 loss, I am happy for the loss but I will honest I wanted more..... I have to learn to proud of myself more. I am better than I used to be but still does not come real easy for me.

    I am going to try to be on this thread more this week. I am one of the S2S people that is not one here much....

    I do have something pretty great to share.........

    Yesterday, I ran my first mile!!!! It took me 17 min. at 3.6mph but I DID IT!!!! I have been working on it for a few months..

    Keep up the hard work everyone!!!!

    Holy cow! What happened is that my period started right on the day of the last weigh-in, which led to a bit water "woosh" during this and the last measurement. But still, I'm 30 pounds down since the start of the year (and the S2S challenge) and might even make the full 40 pounds by the end, which I never expected.

    @radmills - congratulations to your mile! That's a great achievement!

    I had a pretty stressful week (and am glad it's over for work), managed to go skiing once and to the campus gym for the first time. I'd left so much time between the last strength workout and this one that I'm sore again! But I've got "The new rules of lifting for women" now, so I'll start up again more seriously. The campus gym also has an 1/8 mile indoor running track.

    Almost paradoxically, what I've thought about most this week is slowing down. I sort of think I should -- by now, I'm simply "overweight" though with a pretty high body fat percentage, and I wonder if I'm not losing too much lean mass by going on at the same clip. But then my MFP deficit is actually set to 0.9 pounds/week (while I've been losing > 2, though slowing down ever so slightly last month). So should I not take what I find still easy to achieve until it slows down on its own? Or should I start eating more and exercising more? I want to get a nice bike! Questions, question!

    Last week 158.4
    this week 156.6

    a loss of 1.8 pounds

    I am fairly happy with this... Almost halfway out of the 150's and this morning I reminisced of when I stepped on the scale and saw 220 pounds.. That was 64 pounds ago.. yay! :)

    Ok miss awesome! Good job that is absolutely wonderful! 64lbs is huge! Thank you for being such an inspiration!

    Awesome job girl! Way to rock it out! And you are right...every little bit does count.

    FINALLY in the 170's

    However, I had a nasty bug last Friday night & thats how I lost the 3 pounds...BUT I will take it haha My daughter has been sick all week and I got sick AGAIN yesterday. Ugh! It has really put a damper on my workout routine.

    Im hoping for a great workout tonight!

    Great job...I mean hey, sick or not...you can definitely capitalize on that loss for the upcoming week! Just exercise and keep it healthy and you will be seeing that scale drop again :) I hope you have a great workout tonight!

    leandread

    I am down 1.1 pounds @ 267.4. I'm not back where I was two weeks ago but I'm all for not gaining!

    That scale is moving down and that is what is important...keep up the great work girl!

    mkingraham

    Still at 220 this week but it is TOM so I am just happy to be maintaining!

    Yeah, that is good because I usually gain like 3 to 4 pounds in the beginning of TOM :/ LAME LOL...

    mommy2two07

    I gained. I am 176.2 today

    No worries girl, it happens to the best of us. Just work hard this upcoming week and the scale will go down :)

    Leela

    I just wanted to point something out to everyone. I hope they are not offended that I am "calling them out" or putting them on the spot. But I just realised that the two ladies who have stayed at the top of our leader board almost the entire challenge are in their late to mid-40s. I am so proud of everyone, but these ladies have proven that you can lose at any age if you set your mind to it. Its really amazing they are at the age where metabolisms slow down, menopause may have started and they are still doin' the damn thing. So kuddos to you for not using any excuses like age to keep you from getting to your goal.

    This is a good point....putting us young girls to shame :) No, but I am very happy for everyone that it still in this thing!

    I can't seem to be able to enter the new weights on the spreadsheet, I am only seeing the last date of March 25th. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    gwenn933

    Lost a pound and really wasn't trying too hard this week since it is my first week back. So of course I am very proud of that number.

    And you should be proud...it will give you the momentum going into this week! Great job!

    ttv2004

    dinareed

    Finally it is finally starting to work. So 3.8lbs in one week. WOW!! P90X really works, I would highly recommend it to everyone. Love it!!

    Well well well look at that loss! This is exactly why I became a BeachBody Coach...because the programs work! Great job sticking with it girl! Very happy for you!

    OverW8nomore

    Down 4.4 lbs this week :) Met my 3rd mini goal for the year and am now at a 68 lb loss!!! woot woot!

    Weight is now 341.6 I entered it in the new sheet.. thank you for helping to update it...

    Well look at you Mrs. Amazing! What an awesome loss and way to reach that mini-goal! Very very cool and so happy for you! Keep doing what you are doing hun!

    I gained 2 pounds this week - back to 244 (started this journey at 270 with MFP)...I have no one to blame but myself - I let life get in the way and thought I could take a "break" from working out - that and just didn't do it - so....

    As of this week I have worked out 2 days in a row so far, woohooooo, but have added in jogging the stairs when I have to go upstairs at work and even took an uphill walk at lunch yesterday as we finally have spring weather here in Wisconsin!! -

    I refuse to give up and have a renewed energy!!! - :)

    To all of you that have been doing such a fantastic job - CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    To all of you that might be struggling or slipping here and there - just don't ever give up on yourself - We are human and have stumbles, but WE ARE SO WORTH THE EFFORT!!!

    No worries hun! We all let life get in the way sometimes...but hey, we have things that we need to take care of. You have been doing a wonderful job and now you know what to do to get to where you need to be! Stay strong and just never lose sight of your goal :)

    Suzee

    Start Weight: 193.9
    Weight 4/4/11: 183.4
    Weight 4/8/11: 178.2
    This weeks loss: ALL WATER!!!! No longer the bloated blob that I was last week! YAHOO!

    Now to just keep it going!

    I know you are happy to have that water gone :) Great job and a great way to start out this upcoming week! Keep it going...you can do it!

    whittrusty

    I'm down 1.6 lbs this week to 186! Very happy with my progress!

    Great job! You are just chugging along with the weight loss! And I love the new picture! That face of determination...nice!

    tt1113

    Well I appear to be at a stand still. Last week the same as this week 150.4. Working with a trainer to see what foods I need to cut out, going to try hard to weed out lots of processed foods this week and go with mostly natural foods. My goal for this week is to make that stinkin scale MOVE!!!! Happy weigh in everyone, keep up the great work!!

    It happens to us all. I bet you will see that scale move as soon as you limit or get rid of the processed foods. I know I did as soon as I switched to more natural stuff! You are so close to your goal weight...and I am sure that is why you are stalled a bit...but you will get there, you are doing wonderful!

    LW 159.2 (up .2 due to water)
    Yesterday 156.4 (and that's the number I'm using, because I was over sodium yesterday, so today was up just a little.)

    Holy cow! What happened is that my period started right on the day of the last weigh-in, which led to a bit water "woosh" during this and the last measurement. But still, I'm 30 pounds down since the start of the year (and the S2S challenge) and might even make the full 40 pounds by the end, which I never expected.

    WOW! Great job girl! And 30lbs since the challenge! WOO WOO! I heard that girly....that is sooo freakin great! Keep up all the hard work that you have put in.

    down to 195.6 that is a .8 lb loss from last week.
    I am so sore today, I am not sure why. I have been light on workouts this week. Did Zumba on Mon and Wed, gardened for almost 2 hours on Thursday.
    Work has been crazy busy the last couple of night, I get home and all I want to do is lay down.

    Keep up the good work everyone. I can't believe as a group we have lost more than 800 lbs!!!

    Wow, so many great losses this week! Way to go, ladies!! :flowerforyou:

    As for me, I'm 157.4 this week which is 0.1 down from last week.

    I'm okay with that, though, since I'm on Day 8 of p90x, and my muscles haven't been this sore since Days 1-4 of 30 Day Shred back in January! I'm thinking it's that old "muslces retaining water" thing. Hoping for a nice loss next week. :smile:

    Have a wonderful weekend!

    I had something wonderful happen this morning!!!! I put on my shorts from last summer because it was going to be in the 80's by me.....and to my surprise my shorts were too big!!! They were size 22 which is the biggest size I have been in...I will be hunting in my closet soon to see what smaller sizes I have....I am thinking I need 18's....I know I have multiple sizes in there just not sure if it will be the right season.... I have been feeling that I am struggling but today I got to see the good in what I am working on and it felt great!!!!!

    Have a good week everybody!!!!

    This week I'm back at 175. This has been the most frustrating last 4 weeks. But I won't give up! Usually this woul be the moment where I just say this is how things were meant to be. But not this time, I will break through, hopefully sooner than later. I am going back to my daily walks and logging ALL my food. I really hope it helps for next week. I am going on holiday in 10 days and I don't think I will get to the goal that I wanted to, but its okay. I will bust my hump all over May so I can end this challenge on a high note.

    Good attitude Lee! You are doing very good. Unfornantely the smaller you get the more you have to do to drop those pounds. You are fitter so you body is not burning the same amount of calories it used to at your higher weights. Just hang in there and ride it out! Good job!
