    Goal weight- 180
    NWG (non weight goal)- My Halloween challenge requires a 100 miles. So by Christmas I should be able to do 200 miles. I also would like to be back into a size 12. Not sure if 180 lbs. will get me there. But a solid 14 would be an improvement too : )

    I just posted to the spreadsheet. I am down 8lbs! Of course, it is the first week with a lot of water weight since I started guzzling water, but every little bit helps! I am a bit worried about this weekend--I have a business conference to go to. I am going to pack a cooler with me, I think. Put in some healthy foods that hopefully will offset the dinners I will be attending. 5 nights at a hotel...trying to figure out how exactly I will weigh in, but maybe they'll have a scale in their exercise room. I think this week I will be happy to maintain!

    I just found this today and hope it's not too late to jump in...I need to be accountable! I turn 50 on Dec 26 and would like to be even smaller than my goal weight but don't want to put an unrealistic goal out there and get discouraged.

    This is great. I know I'm late but do you mind if I jump in. I've been talking about loosing weight fo ages and instead have sat back and watched the scales keep going up - I badly need help. Suddenly found myself with a bit more free time so it's the right moment for me.

    Hello all!!

    I was tempted to not even post at all, but this site is about accountability! So I FORCED myself to update the spreadsheet honestly.

    I had a gain of 2.2. (from 173.6 to 175.8) Not surprising though because I have not gotten my binge eating under control. On saturday I was way out of line. And it would be fine if I had a crazy cheat day.... ifffff I didnt go over my calories almost everyday this week. We have 13 weeks left though, so I can't give up yet. Hopefully next Sunday will be a better weigh in for me!

    COngrats on all the loses! You guys are super motivational

    AWESOME ladies and gents!!! So, what is everyone going to treat themselves with if they reach their goal? Doesn't have to be food!! Me I am going to get myself a new tattoo lol what about you all??

    Me too. I'm getting a bird on my rib cage that matches the style of a tattoo I have on my hip. Trying to flesh it out into a more full side piece. What are you getting?

    I haven't decided what it I reach my new years goal but once I am fully done and down to my goal weight (hopfully by next summer) I am planning a back piece, and it will be a Phoenix with open wings( that extend across my back and shoulders) to have different things like one wing will have 1 foot print from each of my kids when they were babies, a Breast cancer ribbon, a Cesarean Awareness ribbon and I don't know what else yet lol it gonna be a big one, but so fitting for the new person I am becoming :) I will probably get something pretty small for my new years goal :) Now I gotta start finding what I want ....

    I am impressed with your willingness to admit what you're struggling with. "Reporting" a gain is something that I have always had a hard time with. I like to brag about losses and just kinda pretend gains don't exist, but accountability is the most important thing. Soooooooooooo... I have to admit that I did weigh myself this morning and had gained about a pound - but I didn't track it here (which I will now :happy: )

    Thanks for your honesty!
