    blondie76 – I hope that’s a good wow!!
    allislefttogain – Thanks for the compliment but I’m really just selfish and doing it for myself, haha. If I’m accountable to this many people I have to keep on track!
    melbhall – Thank you for the wonderful idea for the graph and the encouragement to start the group! As I always say (and mean every time I say it) I couldn’t do it without you.
    enromero – Don’t worry about it, I’ll add you into next week’s graph! Happy that you are still in the army!
    mrslocke09 – Welcome to the Weight loss army! Can’t wait to lose with you!

    What does everyone think about adding in some weekly challenges?


    always good with me!!!

    aml0484 – Thanks, I’m very happy with the chart, I can’t wait until a few more weeks when we can start to see actual trends.
    tgeorge0207 – WELCOME TO THE ARMY!! I’ve already added you to the chart so I hope you’re here for the Monday weigh-in tomorrow so you can see yourself there!
    blondie76 – Excellent! I’ll post something tomorrow with my weigh-in regarding a challenge.
    allislefttogain – Haha, oh is that your weakness? We might have to target that in a few weeks then, haha!
    hooah_mj – That’s great! I can’t wait to see your loss tomorrow! I’m a very visual person too so it really helps me.

    Alright recruits! Tomorrow is weigh-in, get in your last workouts! I’m really hoping for more than just a 0.2 loss this week. I’ll post the graph on Tuesday so if you weren’t able to log your weight on Monday make sure to get it in on Tuesday morning. See you all tomorrow!!

    1st. I'm down to 174! I don't know how I lost, I have barely been working out, and have still been eating (even though I've been sick). But, a loss is a loss. I have been drinking more water and less wine. This is just the encouragement I needed!

    2nd. I think adding in challenges will be great. I'm slowly finding the motivation I once had and I think I need a "little more" to vamp it up!

    3rd. Jenn!!! Thank you so much for starting the group. I'm finally feeling decent about myself again and I actually look forward to my weekly weigh in!!! Love ya!!!!

    Ha ha, nope! I have dance until 7 on Sundays and so I usually eat around 8. But in general, I tend to save my calories for later in the day...I eat about 40% of my calories before 2 and like 60% after. Trying to make it more even, but afraid of getting hungry later on in the day and not having the calories to eat :)

    Starting Weight: 131.2
    Last Week's Weight: 129.6
    Current Weight: 128.6

    Down another pound! I'll take it!

    melbhall – I’m so proud of you! Also, I’m super happy that we are back on track, I know that we’ve been a little distracted lately. I’m happy that this is helping you so much, I know it’s helping me a ton!
    allislefttogain – Alright, I won’t make that a challenge so that you don’t starve, we don’t want that. Congrats on the pound down!
    Plwarder – Holy consistent batman! 2 pounds down per week is fantastic!
    gloomyBEAR_QT - Ummm. . thanks for testing on our thread. . .

    My turn!
    SW – 208.3
    LW – 208.1
    CW – 207

    I couldn’t be happier with my 1.1 pounds lost! I’ve been riding a 0.2 pounds down per week for 3 weeks now.

    I think our first challenge should be water, for this week everyone is to try their best to drink at least 8 glasses of water! We can do it! I’d love so suggestions for the next challenge! Graph will be up tomorrow! See you then!

    Love seeing challenges posted! Drinking 8 glasses of water will be a struggle for me but I'm up for it. I've only been up to about 4 cups each day but I will try my hardest. I know upping my water will make me feel so much better!

    Great job to those who have posted! Hope we can all keep it up, we're doing great!

    have a loss to report. Down to 195.0. Super excited that I surpassed my original b-day goal of 199.9. I lowered it to 191.2. Didn't quite make it and am totally ok with it. I knew it would be a stretch. Looks like everyone so far has had a good week. Keep up the great work!

    Down 1 pound to 237. Better than Nothing.
    Ok so, drinking all 8 glasses of water every day this week. Going to be tough, but I knowcan do it!
    I find that (at least for me) It is easier to drink water that is not ice cold.

    No loss is better than a gain! Be proud, maintaining is hard work too!
