GOAL WEIGHT FOR 10 WEEK CHALLENGE - 170 lbs

Memorial Day weekend threw me off a bit, I went home to New Jersey and ate out a few times with minimal exercise. But I came home the same weight that I left as, and my weight has been going down slowly since. It went down A LOT last week, so I'm not too surprised that it slowed down again. A half a pound down is better than a half a pound up. I'm now only 8 1/2 pounds from my first major goal!

I BROKE EVEN THIS WEEK FOR MY LAST WEEK WINE SPLURGE(S) BACK TO 141LBS.

MEASURMENTS:

WAIST-29
HIPS-36
ARMS-12.5
THIGHS-23
CALVES-14.5
CHEST-34

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!!!

OMG Those are my exact measurements in the waist, hips, thighs and calves...how crazy is that?! How tall are you? I'm 5'3"

Holding steady at 143.5...the scale doesn't want to budge! Maybe I need to get rid of my 'free' day that I have once a week... If I could just get a tummy tuck, I'd be happy with my body! LOL

Didn't loose any weight or inches this week. I took a 3 day vacation and had to eat out. i eat salads and egg white omelets and stuff that looked healthy but still, i did not make it so not know for sure what was in my food. im back in my kitchen where I can controll my food! Expecting a 2lb loss this week.

GOAL WEIGHT FOR 10 WEEK CHALLENGE - 170 lbs

Wow... another 2 1/2 pounds in a week! I don't know what's going on, but I'll take it. I'll have like 5 days to a week where my weight is about the same, and then it plummets 2 pounds in 2 days. It's crazy... I'm thinking it's sodium or something that hides my steady loss throughout the week. Either way, I was down to 176.4 on Sunday and it's been nearly the same since then. Yesterday with 2 donuts and attempting running on Wed. didn't help. My muscles are sore and I went over on fat yesterday. Bleck...

Measurements are the same haven't lost anymore inches, but I did lose another pound this week. I was praying for 2lbs this week, but I'll take 1lb. I haven't been documenting all the past weeks of weight lost only the week before.

Last weigh in: 182.2

Current weight: 181.2

Goal at end of 10 week challenge is to be smaller and healther and im reaching it each time I lose a pound.

My long term goal weight is between 115-120lbs.

Keep up the good work everyone!!!

wow i haven't really kept up with this much! Last time I checked I had gained 2 lbs so I'm back at 155 ): I want to be under that (maybe even 150....well I can dream) by the end of the month....and 145 by the end of July.

I am ready and rearing to go, so please count me in, thanks :bigsmile: I joined this site two three days ago, could I still join your challange group or would you prefer it if I join in the next challenge group????????????????
If i'm not making sence it's because it is3.45 in the morning here in the uk- cannot sleep pain keeping me awake as per boring usual.
I just want to say I have been reading everyone's comments and it's great to see you all working so hard and close.Your like a one big family :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :happy:

LOVESFITNESS

New comers are always welcome :happy: So im excited to see everyones weigh in results, i find the summer is the hardest time to lose weight... Im still at 140lbs but im not stressing about it, next week is going to be crunch time we are getting near the end. Does everyone think that they can reach their goal weight on time? if not i was thinking we can extend the challenge, i dont want anyone to lose confidence in not being able to reach their goal, some of us have plateaud which makes it harder to lose weight and with everyones busy schedules its getting harder to keep up with the workouts that we want to do and stay on track with our nutrition. I would love feedback from everyone please on what you all think, I would rlly like everyone to have fun with this and to not feel down because you didnt reach your weekly goal everyone has set backs from time to time, if you are in need of advice send me a message and i will help you, whether it is regarding nutrition, workouts, anything.

Good luck everyone!

I'm not sure if i will reach my goal in this 10 week challenge but i knew it would be tough to get there anyway. I've done better that i expected so far and only have 1lb to go to meet my first major goal -130lbs. If you what to extend it i'm up for that i'll let the group decide.

GOAL WEIGHT FOR 10 WEEK CHALLENGE - 170 lbs

Morning everyone! I had another decent week, it was a little shaky in the middle with some water weight I was holding onto all weekend, but by the middle of the week it was gone and I could see my actual weight loss. I've switch back to not eating all my exercise calories, and it seems to be working well. I'm SO close to having lost 25 pounds since I started on MFP! Only 0.2 lbs to go

As for whether I can meet my goal by the end of the challenge, I'm pretty confident that I can. I'm only 5 pounds away and I was hoping to hit that 2 weeks from now for 4th of July weekend. It'll be close. But 4 weeks to lose 5 pounds is pretty manageable for me. If everyone wants to extend the challenge for another few weeks, I can reset my goal to something lower if I reach it before it's over

GOAL WEIGHT FOR 10 WEEK CHALLENGE - 170 lbs

Not too shabby for this week, 1.4 lbs total. The scale has been stuck at 174.2 since last weekend but it started moving again yesterday and today. I just need to get my eating a bit back on track, the past few days I've had a donut, a muffin, and pizza. Not my usual meals. I'm happy with my progress though, and I'm so close to 170! I was hoping it would happen by next weekend, but unless I magically drop 3.8 pounds in a week, I'll be happy with hitting it in the next 2 weeks. Still on track to meet my goal by the end of the Challenge. I hope everyone else is doing well this week!

GOAL WEIGHT FOR 10 WEEK CHALLENGE - 170 lbs

Another decent week, 1 lb isn't too bad. I was as low as 172.2 lbs in the middle of the week, but I had two pretty hard workouts on Wed. and yesterday and now my muscles are really sore. Once they stop hurting, I should drop the extra water weight from that and be below 172. Getting close to my goal! I think I'll definitely make it by the end of 10 weeks. I'm going to be on vacation for this long weekend, no scale, but I'm bringing some healthy snacks and things for breakfast, plus I'm gonna try to exercise. It's a cabin on a lake so there will be lots to do. Hope everyone else's progress is going well!

Where is everyone gone?

00trayn

I'm not sure where everyone vanished to. As long as we finish the challenge, that's what's important. Only 2 more weigh ins left!! I'm pretty sure I'll hit my goal by then, as long as this weekend doesn't derail me. I'm bringing healthy snacks for the weekend so I don't end up eating junk when I'm hungry.

ambitiousak

I too would like to join this challenge. I am going on vacation August 6th and I have 6 more lbs to lose....I am eating healthier, I still have some slips in the afternoon at work, but just for today I can do it.

Happy 4th of July to All
