    Hello everyone,
    I just completed my weigh in for 9/23/12 CW: 165; I didn't make my goal for September 23, 2012 GW 159, but I didn’t gain any weight either, so I am at least happy for that. I haven’t been working out as much as I should either. That just makes my more determined then ever to make my weigh for 10/23’s weigh in!!!

    My SW is 169 and my GW is 140 which is a goal of 29 pounds lost.
    Goal #1 August: 166 Met 166
    Goal #2 September: 159 Not Met 165
    Goal #3 October: 153
    Goal #4 November: 147
    Goal #5 December: 140
    Keep up the good work and most of all stay positive we can do this!!!

    SW: 221 lbs.
    GW: 195 lbs.
    Goal #1 Aug 23: 216 / Actual 219
    Goal #2 Sep 23: 214 / Actual 217.4


    Goal #3 Oct: 209 lbs.
    Goal #4 Nov: 204 lbs.
    Goal #5 Dec: 199 lbs.

    I did not meet my September goal. Really struggled this month because of my busy work schedule. I didn't work out as much as I should have. I'm determined to do better in October or I will not reach Onederland by Christmas. I'm going to have to focus and try not to get discouraged or depressed. We can do this!

    Ok, so I weighed myself this morning and I have done major damage! I've gained about 12lbs since I first signed up! I can admit I lost the few lbs, compliments started coming and I got comfortable! Well thanks to some of the ladies here and there encouraging words I WILL NOT QUIT! Im setting more realistic goals for my self and working for a healthier me! I wanted to lose 50 or 60 lbs by my bday but Im not sure if thats do-able for me. I can work on 25 by Dec 28 and I will work on 25. So here are my new GW SW, etc! Thanks ladies and especially Queenie_O. Here goes! I was once 353. I will not let 300lbs creep back on me again!

    SW 269
    GW 244-240
    I'll continue to weigh in weekly and post my weight on the 23 of each month.

    2 - Sept 195 - just missed it!
    3 - Oct 185

    Hello ladies!!

    Just checking in no you all. Again, I am so glad to see such amazing progress - even if you are all not meeting your goals. A pound lost is a pound NOT gained, and that's progress!! For those of you who have struggled, know that this journey NEVER ends. Just because this day, week, month, or couple of months have not been successful, doesn't mean that this is 'the end' for you. Let's fight through this...TOGETHER!!

    As for me, I am SUPER busy!! I rely on my phone/app to log my foods most of the time now and rarely get to the boards like I want to. Trust me, I would LOVE to compliment each and every one of you, but there never seems to be enough time in the day anymore!!

    My Friday weigh in went SPECTACULAR!! I'm down about 10 pounds from my last official weigh in for this challenge, and still well ahead of my goal for September AND October:


    SW (before this challenge started): 327
    SW of this challenge: 302

    Goal weights:
    August 23rd - 292
    September - 282
    October - 272
    November - 262
    December - 260 - Lord knows I will struggle around the holidays!

    Weigh In's:
    7.30.2012: 294.6
    08.06.2012: 292.2
    08.20.2012: 285.4
    08.31.2012: 281
    09.21.2012: 271.6

    Greetings ladies!

    Here for my weigh in today 9/27/12.
    I am holding steady at 222 pounds this week--no loss, no gain (last week I lost a record 5 pounds to reach 222 pounds).
    No complaints here considering TOM, and my indulgence in soul food (collards with smoked turkey, blackeyed peas with smoked turkey, and cornbread) all week. Happy to not have gained anything and to be 5 pounds below my September goal!
    WooHoo. ONEderland I'm still coming for you :laugh:

    Keep pushing ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I'm in! I started my journey about a month ago with 110 pounds to lose. I am 5'4".
    For this challenge:
    SW 246
    8/23--236//actual 235
    9/23--227//actual 222
    10/23--218
    11/23--209

    GW--200

    I passed my October goal!! I'm down to 308.6 :drinker:
    I WANNA JOIN!!!

    SW: 331
    CW: 326
    GOALS: AUGUST - 321 (lose those 5 pounds i put back on!)
    SEPTEMBER- 315
    OCTOBER - 309
    NOVEMBER - 303
    DECEMBER 299 or less!

    I missed the first check in so here is a rundown of my weigh-ins:

    7/12 - 331
    7/17 - 328
    7/19 - 321
    7/25 - 323
    7/26 - 323.6
    7/27 - 324
    8/12 - 327.4
    8/13 - 326.2

    I really have a lot of trouble with water weight gain. I exercise at least twice a week and try to stay under 1600 cals (I dont always log it in, though). I definitely need to cut back on carbs. Any suggestions would be great!

    9/10/2012 - 315!!!! I met my goal!!!!
