So, its a gain of .6 but I'll take it. Between the eating out and the many adult beverages, it could have been worse!
Have a good week everyone :happy:0 -
@Rhon - Thanks so much! no worries at all because it is about "keeping in the game"
Have you on the spreadsheet:

I am not unhappy at all because I kept my calories green all week and I worked out before 6 AM every weekday last week.
As you all will see .. this challenge is about "slow and steady" - This is a lifestyle change
good luck to all and see the spreadsheet!

I have to be real careful with what I eat because of recent health problem, so I don't expect this kind of result every week. Would be nice, though, but not realistic. But I'll take it!!!0 -

Change: down 1 this week
Been up and down the last few weeks, but ate pretty well this week and feel good. That is the main thing, right? I think I am at one of those points where your body has a set point (weight you were at for a long time in the past). Having a hard time getting down to 155 and staying there.0 -

Glad you had a Happy Birthday week! Think your GW is wrong though, going the wrong direction! :flowerforyou:0 -
134.0 this morning. Same as starting weight last week. However I joined the challenge mid week and my Monday weight was higher so hopefully I will see results next Monday! It's always hard because I work out during the week so my best results are usually Thursday or friday0

Well, at least it's not a gain... Not too bad considering I was traveling (no exercise time) and went to a wedding. I'll have more time to exercise this week, so I'm hoping for a loss next week.0 -

Good luck all!0 -

Waist 30"
Back again - I dropped back down to my starting weight so hopefully that means that I have lost 2lbs of fat and gained 2lbs of water weight from lifting - well a girl can dream
Hopefully it will start going in the right direction over the next two weeks otherwise I may try dropping my calories (a little) in October.
Oh I'm also tracking measurements as last time I did NROL4W I didn't lose weight but I did lose 8" :bigsmile:0 -

Last month: 164 lbs.
This month: 158 lbs.0 -

Wow you gals have will power! I also weigh everyday, although sometimes I'll skip it if I know it's going to be a bad result. :blushing:0 -
@Cella - Thanks so much.
I apologize - The spreadsheet is designed for me to update. All you have to do is just post your weights from time to time and I will take care of the rest.
Glad to see so many people here! :-)0 -
