Challenge Starting Weight: 200
Current Weight: 181
Difference: -19
Christmas Goal Weight: 169
Ultimate Goal: To wear a size 8 Current size: a comfortable14! ( I was a tight 18)
I have totally flaked these last several weeks but I think that I am back on track. I know that I won't reach my goal weight of 169 by this weekend and I'm ok with that because I know I'll get there eventually. I just added up my measurements and I've lost 10 inches and I've gone down 2 clothing sizes. I'm proud of that! Thank you all for the wonderful support and I'm proud of you too. I hope you all have a wonderful and safe holiday!!!0 -

Week 18
Challenge Starting Weight: 219.9
Current Weight: 204.7
Difference: -15.2
Christmas Goal Weight: 194
Aprox Minutes of Weekly Exercise: 790 minutes/5,841 calories burned
Highs of last week: I kept my workouts up while away from home - even did P90X a few times in my dorm room with NO space!!
Lows of last week: I think it's water weight, but I went up from 202.3 sometime last week to 204.7 today. Here's to hoping that goes away within the next few days!
I'm still planning to weigh Christmas morning and see what happens Who knows, maybe the water weight will go away and I'll get closer to 199 - I would say I'm frustrated, but I know I haven't given it my all with my eating lately. I've been working out like a crazy person though, so I'm proud of that.
Speaking of proud - I'm proud of all of YOU for how far we've come!! I wish everyone from the group would check in one last time so we could see how much we lost as a group! Thanks everyone for sticking with it - let's carry it through the new year 0 -
AMAZING job everyone, i'm so proud of you!!!!!!!!!!
Cannot wait until July so that I can start back on this crazy journey of mine
