    OK, I have my new weight that I got today at the Dr's office. It is 284. And, I have the weekly goals I'm trying to hit. Here goes: :blushing:

    Starting weight 8/1/12: 284

    Aug 5: 282

    Aug 12: 280

    Aug 19: 278

    Aug 26: 276

    Aug 31: 274

    It seems so weird to write it down in public like this. Now I feel the pressure. :ohwell: I sure hope that I can preform up to the expectations. I'm going to do my best, that's for sure. :embarassed:

    I'm in, but I'm kind of in a slow time apparently, so I'm only going to shoot for 1.5 lb per week so I don't get too demoralized :)

    During the 7 lb. challenge I only lost 5.5 on 1200 a day net and exercising every day. I don't want to go more extreme than that, calorie wise. I think some of it was that I gained muscle doing tons of strength training, but who knows.

    I'm not going to be doing the check in's with the target weight's and the actual weight's. It is causing me to over eat and go against my weight loss goals. So, I'll just be floating around on the web site and you all can still see my weight loss by my ticker when ever I post a comment. I hope this is okay. It's got to be for me because this isn't working for me at all. It's working against me in fact. See you all around soon...........

    I'm pulling out of this month's challenge.
    Two co-workers, who I hadn't seen in some time, told me I shouldn't lose any more weight. I respect their opinions.
    I'm going to shift my emphasis to weight stability and increasing fitness. We'll see where that takes me.
    I'll still be around my fitness pal and this message board.
