    Tomorrow's check in time...I am so worried, I was BAD this weekend. I dodged brownies, pizza, carrot cake...and eventually I caved...I think it was the 3rd or 4th party we were at and I ate like it was my job!
    ...I am back on track today, I thinky a good run tonight should help too!

    I am worried about tomorrow too. I am also going to run tonight!! Good luck to both of us.

    Hi again Challengers! My internet connection here at the hotel is unreliable, so I apologize for not being here too much.

    I see a few people have already posted their first week weigh-in results.... and so far, I'm so impressed!! But let's remember, this in not a competition, but a challenge to meet a goal that we each set for ourselves. If you have week that you slip and have a gain, its okay..... just focus on your goal and your individual overall progress.

    Can't wait to read everyone else's results tomorrow!! Good luck.... may the scale be kind to you!!!

    Not the results I hoped to see this week but I must admit that I was out of town for three days over the weekend and while I did a lot of walking and I made relatively good food choices... I also had a few high calorie beers, wine, and a mixed drink or two. Hopefully next week will be better. On the bright side, I didn't gain.

    So, I had a bit of a naughty weekend - not horribly - but I certainly indulged more than I should have. Still, I managed to lose 2lbs! I am positive it's because I've cut out my nightly glass of red wine after work during the week. I'm an American in London and since I moved here nearly 5 years ago, I have gained a whopping 23lbs and I reckon it's down to the drinking culture here that I never did at home. That, and the crazy amount of travel I do for work. I'm in Paris for a night next week - I will be in sauce heaven! Oh dear. :)

    So, that's 2 down and 14 to go!

    Keep up the good work everybody!

    Hi everyone. Well, I managed to lose a whopping 4.5 pounds this week!! While I am thrilled beyond belief at those results, I'm not overly excited because I'm not sure it will last. I was very sick with a stomach bug on Sunday and Monday, and haven't eaten much since then because of it. I was working out and doing well up til Sunday - so hopefully some of this is "real" weight loss. Guess we'll see next week! :bigsmile: Good luck everyone and stick with it! :flowerforyou:

  • Good Morning everyone. I weighed in this morning. I had a very busy week and was able to bring food with me most places. I was very strict with myself and MFP just lowered my calories so I am adjusting.
    I weighed in at 200.5 this morning.
    That is a loss of 3 pounds this week. I am very proud of myself.
    We are taking our son to the county fair this evening so I am a bit worried I will not be very good. I dont really want to stick to a diet there so we will see.

    Hope everyone has a great day and week!!!!

    I'm sorry to report that for my first weigh in, I'm up 1 lb. No excuses - I took in more calories than I burned...period.

    I guess this is incentive to be better at exercising than I was last week.

    I have not changed since last week.... This is good motivation to step it up. I have been lazy this past week and have not logged all my food either. :( I am going to try harder for this next week! Congrats to all who have lost lbs! You are doing great! Keep up the good work!

    I am down half a pound. I have been losing VERY slowly for the past few months so any loss for me is great! I plan on keeping at it!

    Hang in there, all. Perseverance will pay off in the end!

    OH NO! No weight loss :(. More motivation! Good luck to everyone else as the weather gets colder and the warm couches become more tempting!!!

    Goal weight 163

    I lost 4 lbs the last 2 weeks and now my scale isn't moving....going the wrong way. I was down to 173 on Friday which is my normal weigh-in day. Maybe I should switch my checking into Fridays...too much pressure.

    I hope everyone else is having a great week.
  • Amazingly, I lost 2.4 pounds this week! At first I didn't lose any and I was getting worried, but it ended up working out. I'm starting to see the benefits of logging everything and walking a minimum of 10,000 steps every single day!

    I stayed the same :( But I did go on vacation over the weekend so I am just happy that I didnt gain! 232!

    I also stayed the same weight
    9/8/10 138
    9/15/10 138

    I also got a more reliable scale that should help.
  • This challenge is so great, its really keeping me motivated. I started p90x this week, but modified it a little so I could still swim and bike and not lose all my triathlon training. Cut out the run though. I'll be a better runner when I have less weight to carry and it'll be safer on my poor old lady knees.
