    Monday check in!

    07/26/12: SW is 213 and GW is 165.

    Goals:
    1 - Aug 205
    2 - Sept 195
    3 - Oct 185
    4 - Nov 175
    5 - Dec 165

    08/06/12: CW 206.8 <-- Admittedly, this weigh in is from Saturday. It's been so long since I've been this close to 200 that I'm afraid to step on the scale again just in case it really WAS one of those fluke happenings where I've lost 10 lbs overnight! I'm just going to keep doing what I'm doing and enjoy the feeling for a couple of more days -- maybe even until next Monday -- before I get on the scale again.

    WOOOHOOO great job!! I think Jillian had a lot to do with it....lol.

    Good morning ladies,

    I lost 1.4 this week. I'll take it...very happy! The last 3 weigh-ins have been small gains so maybe I've busted through that plateau. I'm 6 lbs away from my first goal. Will work very hard to get there. We can do this ladies!!!

    Congrats!!!

    Morning everyone!!! I am weighing in monthly, but I plan to update weekly. I say that to say I am half a pound down this week. Im not sure whats going on with my body, but these last 3 1/2 weeks my weightloss has been at a creep. NOT complaining though, at least its not a gain. But if I want to be at 165 by Xmas its gonna have to start falling off a little faster.

    Congrats everyone on their losses for the week :happy:

    Any loss is better than a gain! I'm proud of your half pound!! Keep it up!!

    Hi Ladies...I'm new to this but willing to give it my best. I love the accountability, as I desperately need it. I've been able to lose the same 30-40 pounds for years now. When I make this goal, the real work begins in getting past that 250ish area. But one thing at a time. I'm going to be very conservative in my goal and any extra will be great. I need to train myself to do it right so that this is the final attempt to get my body back.

    As of Friday 8/3, my weight is 279. I'll take it. My weekend was not that great so hopefully, I can rebound this week. Didn't really go over my calories but the food I ate was all junk :wink:

    Great job!! Congrats on the loss!

    I am in, I am Shani, I recently started a new journey to shed the lbs by November 20th. I am 5'7, my sw was 224(7/16/12)....i weigh in once a week and as of 8/2/12 I was 216 (yaayyyyy for the 8 lbs shred). My goal weight is 155-160. The wedding was originally 2 years ago, but it was called off and now it is back on. I lost 54 lbs for the wedding 2 years ago, unfortunatley I gained 50 back when I started working 3rd shift while finishing my last year of college. I didn't work out and I got comfortable with a couple lbs back here and a couple there, well here I am ready for a new beginning and I pray that I am able to keep it off forever this time!! Pray for ME!!
    SW=224
    CW=216
    GW=160
    Goal Dates: 8/16 gw=210
    9/16 gw=195
    10/16 gw=180
    11/20 gw=170
    12/25 gw=155

    I know it seems urealistic, but I am up for the challenge and ready to get goin HARD!~

    I totally understand as my weight has come and gone over the past 6-7 years! I plan to keep it off this time though with the help and motivation of my MFP friends! Welcome...glad to have you!!

    Hello Ladies! This is a great challenge and I think it may be exactly what I need to really keep myself motivated!!! I'm Karissa, 29, from Illinois and I want to have made a big dent in my weight loss goals by my 30th birthday, since yesterday marked my half birthday all of my procrastination has hit me in the face!!!

    My goal is to lost 10 lbs a month on this challenge!

    SW: 288
    GW: 175
    Goal #1 Aug 22: 282lbs
    Goal #2 Sept 22: 272lbs

    Goal #4 Nov 22: 252lbs
    Goal #5 Dec 22: 242lbs

    I would also like to add a side note, I saw this group and HAD to join. In a society where women try to bring one another down it's great to have a group where women are bringing eachother up and supporting one another. I look forward to getting to know all of you over the next 4 months!

    Karissa

    Welcome!! Glad you're here! We have similar goals (10 pounds a month).

    Just checking in ladies!! I've commented on as many posts as my fingers could stand, and I'm SO excited to see you ladies workin' it out and gettin' fit!!

    No weigh in for me just yet this week. I spent the weekend with my husband and some of my best friends. Of course food was everywhere and the center of the festivities. I had a great time making memories...and consuming too much..lol. I know I probably gained a couple of pounds but I'm staying as far away from the scale as I can until next week :)
