Nice job guys!
I lost 7.2, I'm still pretty happy with that, since I was 17 lbs away from goal, now less than 10!0 -
I lost 12 pounds (157 to 145) ! Very pleased because I tried to do something and I actually managed it! Big lesson for me was that it isn't always linear. Some weeks I lost too much, some weeks I lost nothing and some weeks I gained. But in the end, it worked. I think in the past I'd have given up when I saw it wasn't working. The challenge really helped me keep going (- just give it ten weeks and see what happens...). :drinker:

HI all,
I just want to start off by telling everyone how proud I am that we stuck it out to the end of the challenge and have seen great results! Everyone should be really proud of themselves and I hope to see you all in the spring to Sumer challenge.
My starting weight for this challenge was 265.... I was losing at a rate of 10 pounds per month so I set my goal at 240.
Things did NOT go as planned, and for the last 2 months I have been losing a steady 5lbs per month instead of 10lbs.
All in all, I am proud to say my finishing weight is 248, therefore; a loss of 17 lbs. I feel great about this number, and hope to lose another 20 pounds in the next challenge.0 -
