    Thanks Vic for doing this. It is a ton of hard work. I posted my new goals on the new page. Cant wait to weight in on Sunday. I may meet my goal yet....
    ***********IMPORTANT....READ ME.....IMPORTANT....READ ME.....IMPORTANT.....READ ME....ok, if I didn't get your attention I don't know what will. *********

    Alright my darlings....here is the link to the "Recruitment Thread" for our new challenge. It explains everything in (great) detail. Forgive me...I find myself long-winded some times. :wink:

    Anywhoo...just post on that thread if you are ready to continue for the rest of the summer. I'm starting to get my list ready now.

    GOAL! I was down to the wire getting to my goal, but I did it!

    Beckdubs, Newmeat - LOVE the pictures! You're both looking great. And as others have said, congrats to everybody who finished this challenge. Coming back week after week and holding yourself accountable over a long challenge like this is no small feat.

    I had my body composition tested at the gym today so I can compare it to the end of our next challenge. I'm at a BMI of 26.5 down from 31.4 at the beginning of the challenge and 36.6 at the beginning of the year. I'm at 29% body fat down from 43% in January (didn't have it tested at the beginning of this challenge).

    I'm a happy camper right now.

    Well I gained this week putting me at an official ending weight of 287.0. Less than a pound up from last week but I am not happy about it. I can't figure out why because I have been under my calorie goal every day.

    On the bright side, I am still 3 lbs lower than my goal for the challenge, giving me a total loss of 25.7 lbs and I am ECSTATIC about that. I can't wait for the next challenge to start!

    I didn't take before pictures at the start of the challenge, but I have taken one now for the start of this one. I have been keeping track of measurements though and here are those changes:

    Waist (measured at navel) 54 to 49
    Hips 48 to 46
    Chest 51 to 48
    Thighs 30 to 28
    Total loss of 12 inches in 12 weeks :)

    Ok, here are my progress pics for the 12 weeks. 10 lbs doesn't look dramatically different, but it sure does fit different in clothing. I am DREADING the weigh-in tomorrow. I've had no self control the last 2 days and I am expecting an major gain. Hopefully by Sunday I'll be "normal". :wink:

    Vic, you're looking great! I think it''s harder to see the difference in ourselves because we can be so critical of ourselves.

    I didn’t quite make my goal for the challenge, nevertheless am absolutely thrilled with the weight that I have lost over the past 3 months, and am excited to be starting our new challenge right away.

    Congrats to everyone who finished the challenge! Isn’t it great to see “less” of us all the time!! Hope to “Meat you all at the Beach!!”

    well I had a very difficult week. Started out at emerge Monday, they sent me for all these tests (ultrasound, CTscan, blood test, urine test...) to find out I have a mass on my left kidney which really hurt (like a stabbing in my left side). I had to wait till Thursday for them to tell me it's not cancer, which I am relieved but I will have to go for yearly ultrasounds to make sure it doesn't grow bigger than the 4cm it's at now. Because of the inflammation they put my on 2 antibiotics, which 1 of them I am allergic to, had a reaction and my throat swelled up! By then, I was discouraged and ate my stress away. I am weighing in with a gain this week...227 pounds.:sad: so I didn't make my goal. I can't wait to start over in the new challenge, I am going to get back on this weight loss journey and lose weight!
