    WOW, where has this week gone! Just realized I have not posted since Monday! I have not been feeling to hot, but I feel a little better today! I have not budged on the scale but TOM started yesterday and I tend to retain a whole week prior to it! I am hopeful of a good number on Sunday.

    HI Everyone -

    Wow - okay I am late in checking in I feel like the scale is stuck..maybe broken..ha ha. :grumble:

    SW for this challenge - 207.4 ( i think- can't remember at this moment)
    CW 205.0

    So only 2.4 pounds down - I am having a tough time:angry: - I thought of water weight - has anyone tried those natural diuretics? Any luck or thoughts? - It says it's not a perm fix but to use during that time of the month.

    I usually walk at lunch to add a bit more exercise to my day but it's storming outside (northern california) so won't be doing that today or tomorrow. :frown:

    Anyhoo - thanks for those of ya'll who like the new pic - I had time at work to add it. :bigsmile:

    I weighed in this morning and was pleased to see that I hit my 10 lb challenge. My goal was to be 280 by 2/1/10 and as of this morning (1/20/10) I was 279.2. It is nice to achieve something early for a change. Now to work on the next 10 lbs.!

    Hi my name is Lauren...I am working at doing this slowly so on 3/1 I want to be 180

    :bigsmile: Congrats to EVERYONE who has hit their goal before Feb 1st!!
    Also Congrats to those that are well on their way!!

    I on the other hand have to figure out what is holding me back from losig the scale has been holding steady and not budging! I think it is time to REVAMP and REVISE. I think I might have to tweak my food intake. I am at 1300 calories and it is possible that I have hit a wall! I am going to try eating more calories and see if I can spark a break through!

    I'm having the same issues! I am losing some inches (or I've lost an inch) but the scale hasn't really moved. I'm sticking with it though. I'm adding in some more whole grains (not much, just a few) to see if that helps. I'm trying to stay away from processed foods and refined sugar (so I only have raw honey on a very rare occasion) and trying to eat "clean" and natural. I feel better, but it's still a bit frustrating when there's no scale movement!

    Good luck to you!

    I agree that clean eating makes you feel wonderful but I thought I had figured out my personal formula for success. Now I have to figure out the next formula...I know that you have to revaluate often but I have am having no luck at the moment. My body must be like "I NEED A BREAK WOMAN"!!!! LOL!
    Good luck to you!

    OMG - Do we all have the same scale. My big issue is that on the Lap Band I can't take in as much as I want because well I get full faster - so I was told 3-5 lbs a month is good. However inches I am am losing everything from my pants- to my wedding rings are big so that is a plus.

    The bummer is that last night I hurt my ACL - don't know how but could not stand on it and walk - iced it and this morning have it in one of those brace things they sell at the store so hopefully by tomorrow I can hit the gym for treadmill. But taking it easy tonight - kind of sucks can't even do my cardio videos because they want jumping jacks and stuff- can't do that right now either.

    Anyhoo so the scale is still at 205. Yup ....who knows if it's going to move.

    On a positive note congrats to those of you who have dropped your 10 already - really happy for you - KEEP IT UP!!

    LOST A POUND. Yay, i was very happy with these results because its the first weight loss i've had in 2 week and it took me out of the 190'S FINALLY!!!!! This makes 4 and half pounds I have lost for the month. I haven't weighed this much since my junior year of H.S. I am very happy and more deterimined than ever to get out of the 180's. That is going to be my next goal in the next month and a half. See ya all around.

    1/07/2010 191
    1/14/2010 190.5
    1/21/2010 190.5
    1/28/2010 189.5

    P.S i'm still gonna weight myself on the last day of the month and do measurments and my push up and sit up and running tests. Hopefully i can lost the other half of the pound before february.

    Hi all

    So today was the last day of the month and I went to do my measurement and weighed in. I normally don't weight in 2 times a week but on the last week of the month i usually do. Today i lost another 2 pounds and am at 187. That makes 7 Pounds for the month. Wish it would have been 10, but it will take 7. And as for my measurments, i went down 2 inches on my hips and waist. I am feeling pretty good and i hope all of you had success this month. Lets do it all over again in February

    1/01/2010 194
    1/07/2010 191
    1/14/2010 190.5
    1/21/2010 190.5
