Very Few Rules

1. A New Thread will be started every monday
2. Weigh Ins are at the start of the week. Or whenever you feel like If you want to report your weight 1 time per month - totally fine with that.
3. Google Doc Spreadsheet is here: http://tinyurl.com/Lose8By2014
4. Post anything you want and support one another.
5. This is "not" a group - it is just a "free and open thread"

This thread was created specifically to promote a "Slow and Steady" approach to weightloss and fitness!

Sub challenges for fitness are welcome!

Enter your current weight and I will update the spreadsheet:

    Current Status: 157 (no loss this week)

    Working to stay afloat with a 4 day business trip at the end of this week. If I am at the same weight next Monday, I will be happy!

    Have a good week, everyone!

    Didn't log in last week, I'm down to 183.8 as of Friday though. I'm out of commission for the next 1-2 weeks (can't go to the gym definitely this week, and possibly not next week either) and I'm planning on avoiding the scale during that time. So my next log in will probably be in October.

    Good luck everyone.

    CW 122.5

    My weight has been bouncing around back and forth between 122-123 for a month now. That is okay -- not so worried about the scale, I'm losing inches which shows progress. My blood sugar is now normal all the time and my triglycerides are low normal too.

    Stay strong everyone!!

    Pretty good considering no workouts last week or actual logging in MFP! Trying to get back on track this week though!

    GW 138
    CW 146.6


    Hmmm

    so I'm at 146.6 today and 30" still on my waist. :angry:

    But I've noticed that I'm actually averaging 1800 cals a day instead of the 1700 I've been aiming for. So I'm gonna hit my average of 1700 a day for this week and see what happens.

    congrats to those who have lost :drinker:
