    ugh...I went up .6 lb...this week!!???? I added push ups, sit ups and squat challenges, and also did 5 days of the 10K training program...plus I really watched what I ate and logged EVERYTHING...was even under my calorie count a couple days...NOT happy with the results...BUT I will keep at it! I know this is more of a marathon weight loss adventure than a sprint, so I'll keep at it!

    Yikes! I was doing so good, and had 7 lbs to go, but now I'm above my starting weight! :brokenheart: I tried to make the commitment to get back on track, but then it was my birthday, and I went home, which is double bad news. :explode:
    145 by 5/10/10 (my bday present)
    Rene, I need to think more like you!

    I could use this too. I am going to see family I have not seen since last September and even before that. Maybe I can even buy a smaller pair of jeans. :happy:

    struggling with this challenge! my weight loss has really stalled and I am so frustrated. I know that I have to keep at it. I am going to try to eat a little more calories and see if it jump starts my losses again. Just dont want to gain any

    Right there with you!! Ugh...but, I am still doing all the exercise and food tracking!! I know that I am getting healthier, even if my scale doesn't tell me I've lost any weight!

    I am very proud of myself so far for sticking with this and I've lost 5 lbs, but I'm worried for this weekend! We are going on a church trip and there won't be time to cook healthy meals...hopefully it won't set me back too far! Subway is going to be my best friend this weekend, I think! :) It will be a challenge for me to go to fast food restaurants and try to find something healthy...but I'm up for it!!

    How is everyone doing on this challenge? I have my start date for this challenge as Feb 22nd. Did anyone else put that as their start date or did you put March 1? Either way I think I am on track ... my stats are:

    Start Weight: 197.8
    Current Weight: 192.4 (down 5.4)
    Goal (end of March): 187.8 (4.6 to go)

    Sure will be nice to be in the 180's again. Haven't been there for about 3 1/2 years. Although it's not really funny, I currently weigh about 2 lbs LESS than I did on the day I gave birth to my daughter 5 years ago (lost it all right away and gained it all and then some back over the last three or four years - argh!). 40 more lbs to be at my "pre-pregnancy" weight, 6 or so more than that to be at goal. I think I am seeing a glimpse of the light at the end of the tunnel!

    Have a great week,
    Lisa

    Hi! Hope it's not too late to start. Just started yesterday (3/8/10) Weighing in at 168 yesterday and 167 today. Am putting in my food before I eat it to see if it is worth the calories. How is everyone doing? I want to lose a bunch before the end of school. I teach and am retiring in May. Guess I should be more specific about weight but want to be in an 8 - now a 12.
    The weather is getting nice so can get out more and do some walking.
