    Ok, I've created the new group for our new challenge :) It's called the "2012 Summer Slimdown Challenge". I will be starting it Jan 1st to keep the momentum going :)

    If you'd like to join the new group, there are a few ways you can do it:

    I've sent friend requests to some of you who have remained consistent in your weigh-ins. When accepted, I have been sending out invites to join the challenge. If I missed ya, feel free to friend me and I can invite you :) Or you can search for the challenge, or follow this link to join that way as well :)

    We're almost done with our New Year, New Us Challenge....let's go out with a bang!

    I know I've been slacking off with reporting my weight loss...silly holiday's getting in the way. I still weigh about the same as of Tuesday Morning. 155.9. At least I haven't gained much! :)

    Looking forward to the next "Summer Slimdown Challenge!"

    Congratulations to all of you on your weight loss! You guys are awesome!

    MERRY CHRISTMAS! :D

    Merry Christmas. I hope you are having an enjoyable and relaxing time - whether it is spending time with family and friends, or just taking time to go for a walk, read a book, or take a long bubble bath.

    One year, I took my dogs to the beach early on Christmas Day, and it was so peaceful, so I hope you are having a relaxing day.

    Starting Weight for this Challenge - 202 lbs (91.7 kg)
    Goal Weight by 1st Jan 2012 - 177 lbs (80 kg)

    26th December - 180.8 (82.0 kg) - which is 1.0 kg (about 2.2 lbs) lost this week.

    HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

    Starting Weight for this Challenge - 202 lbs (91.7 kg)
    Goal Weight by 1st Jan 2012 - 177 lbs (80 kg)

    1st Jan 2012 - 180.8 (82.0 kg) - no change this week. So overall, I have lost about 21 lbs (or just under 10 kg) during the Challenge.

    Thanks to the coordinators of the challenge, and congratulations to everyone who has lost weight by doing this Challenge. I'd also like to congratulate anyone who struggled to lose weight, but diligently kept to their health/fitness program. It is very hard to persevere when there is no "apparent" improvement, so well done.

    well I thought that no one was going to finish this cause I did not see any updates to the spread sheet for a while! So here are my final stats....
    12/12--187
    12/19--186
    12/26--184.6
    1/2----183.5

    I started the challenge at 209.4 and finished at 183.5 for a total weight loss of 25.9 lbs!!! I did it!!! Even with all the holidays! I don't know if the chart will be updated to show this but I hope so! Im sorry I was late, I thought it had been abandoned.
