    I was down 1lb this week but ive been away the last few days and while i really tried to make good food choices im not sure how well it worked. Im going to have to make serious changes for the rest of the week if i want to continue to loose.

    Slow to post here, but I did weigh in on Sunday. Down another 1.9 pounds this week for a total of 8.9 since starting this challenge. Congrats to everyone for doing so well!

    The scale finally moved for me since I have been riding my bike to work!

    Week 1: 155
    Week 4: 153

    Only 2 pounds lost so far, not a lot but I'm just happy the scale is finally moving!! Lets hope it keeps moving!!

    Loss of 3lbs
    Link to my progress pic is here https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-frc1/428564_10151436948872057_65542486_n.jpg

    Here are my stats from 05/14/13
    Age: 44
    Height 5'7"
    Weight: 209 lbs
    BF%: 42.4
    Fat Mass: 89 lb
    Fat Free Mass: 120.8 lb
    Total Body Water: 88.4 lbs

    slight loss of water weight and body fat weight.
    Here are my stats from 05/07/13
    Age: 44
    Height 5'7"
    Weight: 212.6 lbs
    BF%: 41.9
    Fat Mass: 89.01lb (down 6lbs from 3 weeks ago)
    Fat Free Mass: 123.6lbs (up 4lbs from 3 weeks ago)
    Total Body Water: 90.4lbs (up 3lbs from 3 weeks ago)

    In summary - the scale weight doesn't tell the whole story.
    I've added water weight (you can't burn fat if you're dehydrated), I added muscle (because I lift heavy weights) and I reduced my body fat mass and %.
    This is why you can see changes in your body even if the scale doesn't seem like it's moving.
    I'm happy! I'll take measurements next time.
    Here are my stats from 4/21/13

    Arm (6' above elbow): 14.5"
    Waist: 38"
    Hips: 46.5"
    Thigh: 28.25 (10" above the knee)
