    At the end of this... November 1st, I'll add up our cumulative loses to see if we beat out the numbers in the "Hot by Halloween" challenge for a little friendly competition :)

    I'm hitting a slump lately both emotionally and physically. I've been having some health issues that I think are slowing me down. Nothing serious but affecting my weight loss. It's also making me get a little lazy and I've had to push myself through workouts. I'm still doing my best to stay with it though. I just really hope I see some movement on the scale this week. I haven't lost anything in a week or so. I need scale motivation.

    I can't believe I stayed the same as last week. I had been randomly weighing myself all week and the number was going down and then this morning it was the same! :(

    I'm still fighting the same pounds over and over again. Too much neglecting my healthy eating while traveling for work and on vacation and not enough excercise. Now it's time to kick it back into gear!

    Hey there!! Busy weekend so I wasn’t able to check in…but here are my most recent results :)

    Lean by Halloween Weigh-ins:
    GW: 164lbs

    SW(7/4/11): 185.8
    W1(7/8/11): 184
    W2(7/15/11):182.6
    W3(7/22/11):179.4
    W4(7/30/11):179.0

    Total loss so far: 6.8lbs

    Great job on your weigh-ins…a loss, no matter how small, is still a loss…so keep at it :)

    Kerseygeek – keep your chin up….hopefully you’ll see a loss soon to get you motivated again…don’t lose all hope

    I had a mini-goal of 174lbs by Aug 7th…but I’ve been playing catch-up since my vacation in June…so I won’t be hitting that goal, but I’m hoping to reach the next mini-goal after that!

    It’s a new month so let’s make the best of it :)

    I finally went down a pound this morning but it's still a pound away from my lowest. I'm still catching up from the 2 lbs I put on recently. Not sure where it came from cuz that was over a week ago. But finally seeing it move makes me happy. I hope to lose 1-2 more pounds this week but as long as I get back where I was I'll be happy.

    Soooooooo I have been thinking a lot and since I did not loose much weight in July I have set a new goal for myself.

    My SW for this challenge I think was ~180 and when I started my GW was 135.
    My new goal is to get to 155 by my b-day (Oct 8) and 150 by Halloween. I feel like this is a much more realistic goal and that I will actually reach it by then. Overall I think I still want to weigh 135 but I don't care if it takes me even a year to get to that so long as I go about it the healthy way.

    Down 11lbs so far, a holiday of hiking 4-5 hours every day in the mountains sure helped!

    I've lost another 3lbs. In general I am so close to the big 5-0 in pounds lost. It seems to be added motivation, because I want to go and run a marathon. (ok not really, but you get the idea). Seems like everyone is doing great!! Keep at it! :happy:

    Great losses everyone!

    Kerseygeek – glad the scale’s finally moving for you!
    dusk1977 – great job completing the Shred
    CaWaterBug8 – it’s good to reassess your goals…and like you said, better to do it the healthy way :)
    Jucylynn –you’ll be at the “big 5-0” in no time :)

    I think I’m going to weigh in early this week, as I will be leaving Friday morning to go camping until Monday…so I will update my weight either probably Friday morning instead of Saturday :)

    Down 11.6 lbs since July 1st! I wouldn't put the decimal in there if it weren't a freakin 6! But I'm super thrilled that I'm losing steadily!

    My goal is to be around the 250's by October 31st.. It's been a while since I've seen the 250's and then after that I think losing the rest will be great!

    I haven't looked into costumes yet. I always get discouraged.. even at 250 I may still get discouraged. But I think I will be more excited once the season grows closer. I'm more in tuned about getting my wedding taken care of first! Which is only 10 days before Halloween! =D
