    My September challenge was to try and stay in my calories every day. So far, I have had mostly good days.

    September SW 217
    September GW 205
    Currant Weight 210.8

    I didn't expect to lose so much my first week doing the challenge, but I did so I had to lower my September goal weight. I don't expect such huge losses to continue and that is why I put my end goal weight at 205. I don't want to kill myself trying to go lower if my body decides to slow down the weight loss.

    Week One Update: I have logged on and recorded every single food I ate! Also held out and waited the full week before weighing myself, only to be disappointed with no change on the scale!! Ugh! How frustrating!! Hoping the results show through next week...

    SW: 165
    GW: 161
    Weight: 166 > I went up. From late night snacking and wine intake through Labor Day weekend.

    Self Challenge: Nutrition consistency (calories, intake of carbs/protein/fats)
    Improved my protein, working on carbs.


    >Week of 9/8
    SW: 165
    GW: 161
    Weight: 165.4 > Went down. No late night snacks, Yeah!
    Self Challenge: Protein good, Carbs up & down, need to get fats leveled.

    *Strong allergy issues put me under the weather since last Tuesday ( 9/9). DH started feeling off, too, and we came home early from Niagara Falls. My weekend (9/13-9/15) is all about nutrition, rest, light calisthenics and stretching to gear up for a re start on Monday. Maybe I’ll make my September goal which now includes getting to the 140’s. If not, I won’t cry over spilled milk but clean it up and move forward.

    >Week of 9/15
    SW: 165
    GW: 161
    Weight:164.4 > Went down
    Self Challenge: Protein good, Carbs improving, Fat up & down and mainly higher than I need.

    *9/17 is my Professional Weigh-In and Nutritional consult at GISFW.

    I'm up for the challenge!

    Starting weight for September: 187.5 lbs.
    Target weight for end of September: 179 lbs.
    Challenge: Walk around Salem Lake (7 miles) once a week, no matter how much homework or housework I have to do! :tongue:

    Current weight: 186.7
    Challenge: Salem Lake walk completed on 9/1 and 9/7...2 down, 3 to go!

    :happy:

    Current weight: 185.0
    Challenge: Salem Lake walk completed on 9/1, 9/7, and 9/14...3 down, 2 to go!
    Since this walk is 7 miles, I typically do some sprinting through some of it. On Saturday I ran a 5 minute sprint...this might not sound like much to you runners out there, but it is a new record for me. I can't wait until I'm able to run a full mile without stopping! :happy:

    Personal Challenge: Weigh myself only once a week (Monday). Track food daily and eat healthier snacks in the evening :smile:

    I weighed-in on Monday and I was down 2.4 lbs! It was a very welcome loss as I had no change the week before. I have been getting up at 5 am to walk before I get ready for work. I've also been eating less in the evening. Happy to report I'm staying motivated dispite this challange being 2 years old! Keep up the good work everyone!!

    Weighed-in today and I'm thrilled to be down another 1.8lbs. Today weighing at 158.2. I have been keeping up with early morning walks, I did have fast food on Saturday, but managed to even things out on Sunday.
    Hoping to surpass my goal of 158 by the end of the month!! Woohoo!
