    Having a bad week so far, hardly any exercise and now I am at home ill!! Weight was the same this morning though, so that's not too bad, looks like I won't have lost this week, but we can always hope for a miracle lol

    I might not be able to weigh in tomorrow. My Wii fit board is broken (my usual scale) and I don't own any other scales. I'm not sure I'm going to be able to get in to town until Saturday morning to sort it. I'll try and find a way to weigh in tomorrow but if I don't know that I will by the weekend!

    With that said, good luck everyone tomorrow! Any idea what we're doing about the others that have left, then?

    HOW IS TOMORROW ALREADY THURSDAY?!?!?!? I've been cooped up in the house painting like a mad woman! Who woulda thought painting could make your thighs hurt?! Haven't been logging my food, but then again I haven't really had time to eat. Good luck to everyone who's been working their tail off!!!

    Go to your local drugstore & "try-out" one of their scales. :D That's what I did for the first few weeks of the challenge! HAHAH

    I'm down almost 2 pounds this week! Yay! I can't wait to be in the 120's, haven't been there since highschool -- about 6 years ago now :-) I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

    Well done everyone so far! I'm at 153.8 today, the lightest I've been in a long long time! The weight is coming off, definitely very very slowly though, but I think I'm ok with that, because apart from the odd measurement between 0.5 and 1lb, which I count as bodily fluctuation it's all on the way down!

    And some extra motivation, I've booked my next holiday to Canada in Feb, so I have just over 100 days to get smokin' hot!!

    Keep it up lovely fruits :-) I just ate an apple, sorry bananas ;-)

    Lost 1.5lbs this past week. Since we started... I'm down 16.7lbs!!! I know I haven't been updating my food or exercise diaries lately, but I'm doing things on my own. Plus, I have school everyday of the week... So I'm super stressed, but I haven't had the need to binge while I'm studying or eating -- which is something that I used to do!

    Keep up the great work! I believe in you :D

    WHERE OH WHERE ARE OUR GRAPES? NOT ONE PERSON HAS LOGGED THEIR WEIGHT!

    I'm a grape (GO grapes!), I didn't get a chance to enter my weight this AM, but it's in there now...good question though, where are candacens, MrsPhan11, EmilioA (Emily) and Miasunshine (Mia)? Hmm...we'll give it a day and see if they log in...what happens if I'm the only one of team grapes? LOL! I guess that would really motivate me not to slack off, eh?

    P.S. Had a small cocktail on Sunday and had to work my butt off the rest of the week to make that go away (guess I won't have any booze no matter how tasty it is), anyone else have one drink and wind up 2-3 pounds heavier the next day?
    ...I was only like 300 cals over and not over my sodium that day, so I don't really get it, but I know my body LOVES to hang onto the pounds like a miserly old hoarder.

    NEED SOME HELP:

    missing weights for the following people ( not including the people im assuming dropped out who i highlighted in blue on spreadsheet)

    bananas- butterfly86x
    peach- bttflykisses925
    grapes- mrsphan11 and emilioa


    if you are one one of the following teams please try to get into contact with the missing members, i know some people have had trouble getting the spreadsheet to log weight so hopefully that is all it is!

    No loss this week. I have no excuses. My past two weeks my eating has been terrible. I'm always thinking about food (I'm thinking about food right now, actually) I really do need to get back on track as I planned to be a size 10 by Halloween - and as that hasn't happened it'll have to be by Christmas.


    As for the drop outs - Well I'm fairly sure the other two grapes have always been fairly consistent with logging at least. Bttflykisses925 has also been quite good I think, and butterfly86x is new so she might have just forgotten to log/had trouble with the spreedsheet.

    Maybe we should give them all until the next weigh in and perhaps rearrange whoever is left into groups of 4 instead of 5 (it's not ideal, but it'll at least mean we can have some full teams).

    I completely agree!! But I'm glad there is a core group of us who is still strict with it, and you guys have all been really supportive and motivational!! =)

    I concur! It would be nice to know rankings but it's still lovely to know that I'm not doing this all on my lonesome! :happy:

    Can't believe it's weigh in AGAIN tomorrow! These weeks are going so fast!

    Good luck to everyone! :smile:

    It's already Wednesday?!?!?! These weeks seem to go buy faster and faster!!! Good luck to everyone tomorrow, can't believe we only have a handful of weigh-ins left!!!
  • CONGRATULATIONS to boyslie72487 for being the biggest loser last week! And to the RED APPLES for best team weigh in! :drinker:

    I'm down another pound this week and so close to being 11stone (154lbs) :happy: I appreciate I haven't lost 20lbs in this challenge but the fact that I'm losing slowly but steadily is reassuring me that all that weight is not going to pile back on in the next week (now watch it happen.... :laugh: ) Does anyone else feel the same?

    Good luck to everyone else for weigh in today.... and if anyone sees any Bananas, please bug them to log on the spreadsheet! There was only 2 of us last week! :sad:

    xxx

    PS. I've had to put a belt on my trousers this morning and look like a sack of potatos tied up in the middle because of all the extra fabric. NSV but definitely not attractive! :laugh:

    Great job on your loss!! 11stone is right around the corner! I completely agree - i haven't lost anywhere near 20lbs in this challenge, but it really has given me a confidence boost that even though I'm losing slowly, the weight is staying off, and that feels great. Yeah, I might not have lost as much as I could have if I'd gone really hard core on my dieting, but I'm still enjoying all my food and I don't feel like I'm restricting myself which is a winning factor for me!

    Good luck with everyone's weigh ins today - I maintained this week which is fine - judging on my normal pattern, that should mean a loss next week!!

    I got really excited there for a moment! :laugh: I wasn't able to weigh in today, no scale at my grandma's house. but I'll be sure to do it first thing tomorrow morning! I'm kind of sad that I didn't work as hard as I could have since the challange began, but I have been giving it my all, and I am happy to see my weight drop! Good luck to everyone today!
