    Okay.... truth be told, I have been slacking with my logging. So I am going to try and be back on here. Consistency is kicking me in the butt! So, grocery shopping and back to packing my lunch for work :) and better meal planning in general!

    Let’s not get discouraged around the holidays that are coming our way! Or at least that’s what I am chanting to myself!

    Down to 148.8. Seems like I'm consistently losing about a lb per week. I guess that will work for what I'm trying to accomplish. Definitely don't have enough time at this rate to make it to my goal for the New Year.

    In all honesty, life has gotten in the way of my workouts and my eating habits the past few weeks. Time to get back on track. And hopefully with my Husband out of school for a month I will be able to get a little help with meal making and house chores.

    You're all doing a great job!! Its so wonderful to have a group like this where I have accountability!

    :flowerforyou: Happy Tuesday Everyone!

    As always, thanks for sticking with me and the challenge! I lost 1 pound this week so I'm finally seeing a little consistancy on the scale, and it's my TOM so I'm hoping for even more next week! One more weigh in before the dreaded Thanksgiving feast! No worries though, it's only a day, enjoy it with family and friends and get back on track over the weekend. You've all come such a long way!! I've realized as well I will not make the 25lb goal but I'm determinded to keep moving forward, any weight lost is more than I would have done without the challenge. Hope you all have a great week and talk to you soon!

    forgot to log in on monday.... i went back down to 142 again. so, finally back in the right direction. amazing how going off my 1200 cal diet for just a week and a half made such a quick gain.

    i'm finding it hard to eat as well as i should be at about this halfway point :( but, i'm optimistic that i can get back at it!

    started la boxing this past week - so hopefully 5-6 days a week of that will get me into kickass shape! maybe i won't meet my 25 pound goal... but i bet i'll hit 20!! (allowing for a little indulgence with the holidays!!)

    don't get discouraged everyone, i know i'm going to keep going until i lose that 25 lbs - my new years or even a month after! you all have really motivated me, and i made a promise to myself to lose this weight, so let's remember our promises to a healthier us!!

    Everyone is doing amazing!!! Great job on those losses :) And keep up the great work! Like you said, even if we don't hit our 25lb goal by new years, we still LOST weight which is definitely our overall goal :)

    I had another rough week living in 2 places at once and I finally brought my scale to my house, where I'm spending most of my time now. So sorry again for the late weigh in...I haven't gotten back to logging consistantly yet, but after seeing that gain last week I'm more aware of what I'm eating this week...here's my weigh in:

    I haven't been tracking my calories at all this month. Probably the exact reason I haven't been losing. I started back at it today. I am determined not to put back on the weight that I have already lost!

    I totally agree. I was wondering last week whether we could slot in another couple of weeks before the start of the new year (so we can all reach our goal!) LOL.

    I love reading the spreadsheet, and seeing how much weight, we as a group, have lost. And more importantly how much our health/fitness must have improved as a result.

    Whilst there are a few "negative losses", these are not for very large amounts. And when people are going through times where they are focusing on other priorities, they get back on track as soon as practical.

    Well done everyone ...

    I missed Monday's check in. I have been super sick. I lived off of Melba toast and tea because it is all I could stomach. The advantage-I weight in 222 this morning!! The bad thing is I expect that will all come back.

    Don't you worry - 24 lbs will do. :smile:

    No, I'm just joking. Welcome back. I think you'll find that there are a number of us who won't make the 25 lbs. However there's still 6 weeks to go. Good luck.

    I had a bad cold and couldn't stomach food for a day. Depending on how you eat when you can again, will depend on if it comes back. Keep hydrated! :) Good luck!
