I know the weigh in is tomorrow, but I have been the same for a couple days now, so I went ahead and updated my weight today. I made the first goal, but missed the second one by quite a bit. I have lost that strong motivation I had in the first 3 months. I am still plugging away, but not with as much excitement. I hope everyone else is doing well. I hope to get it going again in the next 3 months when the weather is nicer and I am able to get my walking buddy back. Good luck everyone!

    CW 217.4...nowhere near my March 1 goal but I'm staying with this challenge and I reset my goals for the last 2 weigh-ins. Trying to be realistic and have attainable goals. The next 3 months will be better:smile: I agree with Karen, nicer weather will make it easier to workout. I have joined a couple of new challenges and those definitely will help as well.

    Good luck everyone and let's keep this challenge going!

    Ah, came in at 166lbs, so less than half way to my goal. Not sure if I should reassess, since 10lbs/3mo is an achievable goal, but this is the 2nd time I have missed my goal.

    Don't reassess, push harder! You can do it. I know it seems hard to imagine 6 months in, but try to recapture that motivation and inspiration you had in September to set that goal for yourself. I believe in you!

    You're right, and that's ultimately what I had decided to do, but it's nice to hear it from someone else. :wink: I think for the most part I'm over my plateau - I just gotta pay more attention to what I cram in my pie-hole. Which was my whole problem in the first place, haha! Good luck on meeting your goal next quarter!

    Hello my friends,

    I did not reach my goal this time either. I will push my self harder for the next three months. I can say that I am lighter and happier than I was this time last year. Do not give up on yourself keep going and take one day at a time.

    God bless,

    I am working on getting fit and healthy. I may not have net my goal but I will not let that stop me. Congrats on your 42lbs lost. I have lost 46 so far and plan to lose more.
