    Wish I'd found this earlier. My goal has been to get under 135 by halloween and today I weighed in at 136.6. I've been slowing down a lot in the last few weeks, but that's to be expected because my goal is 130. Getting tough!

    SW: 150 lbs
    GW: 140 lbs
    9-10: 149

    9-24: 146

    10-8: 143.4
    10-15: 143.4
    10-22: 142.4
    10-29:
    TOTAL: 7.6 pounds lost

    This is pretty much the last time I will be weighing in. I leave for vacation on Friday and won't be back until November 4th. While I'm happy that I lost 7.6 pounds since Labor Day, I am still kind of sad that I didn't reach my goal of 140. I tried the TDEE method this past week and I'm happy that i'm off my plateau. I only wish I would have researched it a while ago and probably would have lost to my goal weight. Oh well, here is to 7.6 gone and many more to go!! :) Have a great Halloween everyone!!

    9/24: 170 (2lbs loss & 10lbs to go)
    10/1: 169.6 (0.4lbs loss & 9.6lbs to go)
    10/8: 170.2 (0.6lbs GAIN & 10.2lbs to go) CRAP!!
    10/15: 168.6 (1.6lbs loss & 8.6lbs to go)....Feeling good about my progress!
    10/22: 168.0 (0.6lbs loss & 8lbs to go)
    10/29:
    10/31: (Halloween Goal: 160lbs)
    TOTAL LOST: 7 Lbs. as of today :wink:

    Overall I feel great about my progress, I would've wished for a little bit more than 0.6 but at least is something. I felt pretty crampy yesterday and bloated..uggg! so I guess it should be more than that my next Monday.

    Good luck this week everyone!

    Yay!!! I LIKE todays weigh in!!

    Sept. 11- sw 169.1
    Forgot to weigh in next week
    Sept. 24th- 170.4 - Wrong direction scale!!!!
    Oct. 2 - 168.4
    Oct. 9.- 170.9
    Oct. 16 - 168.7
    Oct 23 - 166.2

    Thank you to everyone for the accountability here. The weekly weigh ins are keeping me on track.
    My body weight hasn't really changed that much, but my body has definitely been changing. I have been lifting weights so I wasn't too surprised that the scale didn't move much at the beginning. It looks like it has started figuring it out.

    Game on! No costume for me, however I might be in a few pics with my boys on Halloween. I have a mini goal to be -20 lbs by next fri sept 14th, so I will go from there. Let's make it 12.5 lbs lost by our due date of Halloween. Also, just did day one of C25K.

    Argh! Here we go....

    Current weight: 180.5 (yuck yuck yuck!!!!)
    Goal weight: 168

    The above was start date. I have reached my goal mini goal a bit early so I hope to keep the momentum going. Have a reward weekend in two days, going to a concert with husband. Can't wait!

    Start weight (9/3) 180.5
    Current weight (9/11) 178.0
    Goal weight (10/31) 168.0

    To all on this post.... Great job on your loss so far and keep after it.

    Current weight (9/18) 176.5 Had an awesome weekend, with great music and a few food splurges.

    Slow and steady, stay focused everybody!

    Current weight (9/25) 176.5 the same :(

    Had a weird week, had a cut on my finger and doc didn't like how it was healing so he put me on heavy antibiotics that make you sick. So have eaten to settle stomach and that was not good and on top of that I have either not worked out or not as hard as I should. Last night doc ended up cutting it all out and new meds kept me up all night sick, so sticking to Advil, but have to stay on the antibiotics another week.

    Everyone keep after it, there is plenty of time to reach our goals.

    Current weight 176.0 minus 0.5 I will take it.

    As of 10/26 I am at 173.5 so a total loss of 7 pounds. Not bad.

    We have 5 days to bust a move and reach our goal!

    This is hard work, be proud of yourself for how far you all have come. Have a successful weekend.

    10/22: 168.0 (0.6lbs loss & 8lbs to go)
    10/29: 166.6 (1.4lbs loss & 6.6lbs to go)
    10/31: (Halloween Goal: 160lbs)

    As of 10/29 and 7 weeks into this challenge I've lost a total of 8.4lbs! I went from 175lbs to 166.6lbs - an average of 1.2lbs a week!
    Although I was really hoping for 15lbs loss, I guess I was being a little too ambitious, I am extremely happy with this progress.

    I'll weigh-in again on the 31st just to get to the actual date and see if there's a bit more of a weight loss and close my gap a little bit more.
    I'll also check the week where I lost the most weight...week of 9/10 (the very first one) and look at what I ate and did to lose 3lbs in just 7 days!

    Overall feeling great about myself and my progress!

    New goal: 5 weeks for a 8.6lbs loss!!!! Go from 166.6lbs to 158lbs!! I can do this!!!

    Didn't quite have a good run with the weight loss challenge. Still about the same though, no gain.

    Sorry it didn't work for you. Maybe you need to watch your calorie intake and exercise on a regular basis does help to keep your metabolism running fast. Keep yourself motivated and keep going! As soon as you start seeing results regularly you won't want to stop! Best of luck!
