    Well, I don't feel quite as bad, since I wasn't the only one who gained, and I am pregnant.
    Rach, if it's messing up the groups loss totals you can take me off, I'm pretty sure I won't be doing anything other than gaining for the next 6 months. It just helps me stay accountable if I have to report in to someone on a weekly basis.

    We do need to step it up! Let's keep going, ladies! I'm averaging 1/2 lb a week, which is my goal, but I only lost 0.2 last week, so I have room to step it up myself! Thanks again for doing this, Rach!

    Well yes, not too many going down this week.
    I hope all the Easter treats are GONE, and we can get back to losing this week, go for it everyone!

    I have been having trouble keeping up with exercise. I am still eating okay, and still losing weight, just slowly. Work has been rough, My bf and I broke up, but are still talking, which has it's ups and downs, and there has been nothing but rain for the past 3 weeks in Cincinnati. eh.

    Thanks for posting the number, Rach!
    My goals this week are to really step up my water intake - the thing I struggle the most with!
    Also would like to get in at least 4 workouts. I'd really like to step back up with a 2 lb loss! The warm weather is almost here, so I want to be ready for those halter tops and sleeveless dresses :)

    Ugh, im so burnt out on counting calories! Its all i freakin think about! How many calories per meal? How many calories do i have left? That was how many calories!?! Woo hoo excercise calories! Im takin a break from calorie counting. Im still gonna eat healthy and excercise, dont get me wrong. And still gonna post excercise calories. I love seein how much i burnt. Just gonna try a different route. Ive been reading a lot about juicing. Fruit juice, not roids. Lol. I may take that up this week. Idk, im all over the place right now.

    Goodbye scale! See you next Monday!

    Hoping my foot feels better for tomorrow. Only did a mile today and a little work on the elliptical for a measly 183calorie burn. Ugh. Better than nothing but I like getting over 400 in about 35min. I didn't even get 200 in the 25min today. I'm ready to be outta the 170's!!!

    Patience. Patience.

    Goodbye scale! See you next Monday!

    That is actually one of my goals this week. Not to get on the scale until next Monday. I seriously weigh myself at least twice everyday and I think it is messing with me.

    So, no scale until next week, water, stay in calories and no negative self talk. We will see what happens. :smile:

    This week has GOT to be a good week for me. It's been too long with no real loss. I upped my calories to take into account my Insanity workouts and it looks like the scale is finally moving in the right direction. So my goals this week are to keep my calorie deficit at 500 a day and to keep it together over the weekend. Good luck to you ladies!

    Sorry ladies, I didn't get a chance to post my weigh in yesterday, which really REALLY sucked since I had a decent lost.

    142.8!!!!!

    Congrats to all you on keeping it up!!

    Great job this week, ladies!!

    As expected, my weekend at my sisters totally sabbotaged me. I'm in at 202 right now. TOM started yesterday afternoon, so some of it might be bloat. We'll see. My *kitten* is dragging and I'm totally wiped out! I HATE warm weather/summer periods! They seem so much worse than other times of the year. Ugh.

    Hopefully by tomorrow I'll be feeling human again and can work out. I might bounce back this afternoon, and get a light workout in after work. Meh. We'll see. I'm not going to force it, even though sweating would help with the water retention.

    Even if this wasn't the best week, we've got to keep in mind that the group has lost nearly 300 pounds since this challenge started. That's something to be proud of!!

    I am humbled by the fact that I currently have the highest percentage of weight loss, but I just wanted to let you ladies know that I'm temporarily going into maintenance. My wedding is May 28, and my final dress fitting is this Thursday. I've reached the minimum weight that my seamstress has allowed me, so I need to maintain for the rest of the month. I'll still be checking in, but my numbers shouldn't be changing.

    Have a lovely week!

    Hi Rach I didn't weigh in last week due to a huge gain, shame on me, I owned it on my profile I should of owned it here. Sorry ladies not a good example.

    My weight yesterday was 148 lbs.

    I have stepped up my game this week and I'm in it until the end.

    Let's do it ladies, we know we can and we know we will be upset with ourselves if we don't.

    I don't normally set a goal for myself, but I have gained the last two weeks so maybe setting a goal will help...I want to burn at least 1000 calories a day...is that bad?? and no ice cream the rest of the week (this one is going to be hard). By Monday I just want those 2 pounds gone (maybe 3 so I will finally be in the 140's)

    Have a great Tuesday!! :-)

    Most definitely time for me to step it up. I seem to be in this cycle of great loss for a couple of weeks and then gaining. I've been far too lax on the weekends (not logging food, not doing any real exercise, eating out too much) and I really need to make a commitment to getting that under control.

    I went out for Thai food with the BF last night and while I only ate half of my entree, I had a large bowl of lemongrass soup to start and I know that it was completely sodium laden. I am gonna have to hit the water like never before today and the rest of this week to have any chance of getting back down into the 170s (I was there by the end of last week and it felt AWESOME!)

    So, goals for this week - cook at home the rest of the week and this weekend, increase my water intake (I usually get in 10 cups but would like to get 12-15 per day this week), get back to exercising (even if it is on the dreaded recumbent bike) daily.

    Hope you all have a great week!!!!!!

    Really? I've lost ONE pound in SEVEN weeks? How pathetic.

    Good news is the scale was nice to me this morning...but I can't seem to keep it that way til next Monday.
