    I was up a couplke of pounds from goal weight at the beginning of the month so I am still hoping to shed two pounds by the end. I will weigh in later. Apple donut holes are two feet from me right now and I am resisting. Ate my oatmeal and boiled egg like a good girl. :ohwell:

    I'm in... now that I've been cleared for activity by my orthopaedist, I can finally get something done hopefully!

    Starting at 163.4 as of this morning... 2 lbs is my goal, though I'd love to shoot for 4 lbs. I'm also shooting for 10,000 steps per day on my FitBit and at least 30 mins exercise each day. I got my 30 in this morning at physical therapy, but I'll go do cardio later also!

    Good luck everyone! WE GOT THIS!!

    OK, so this morning I was at 161.0 lbs. Hopefully the trend will continue!


    That's great!! :happy:

    Well, only 160.6 this morning... but I guess a loss is a loss!

    I would love to lose another 2% BF this month!!

    SW: 132.6
    BF% 26.57


    Hi everyone!:happy: Fridays are my weigh in days. Today I weighed in at 130.8. Just 2 ounces from goal (and just 4 lbs 2 ozs from end goal :smile: ). So close. We are going camping with many people this weekend, and the menu doesn't sound ideal for weight loss. It does, however, sound ideal for camping. S'mores, hot dogs and roasted marshmallows cooked over a bon fire, with chili and all that good stuff :love:

    A little disappointed. I had lost over 2.5 lbs but put one back on. However, I am down a clothes size in my pants and shirts so I'm waiting for the Christmas sales to re-stock the wardrobe. I'm hoping to get off the plateau soon!

    Well, this morning I was at 161. which means I haven't lost anything since my last report... gained 0.4 actually. But I did lose 2.4 lbs this month, so I guess I made the challenge!

    Camping food is a big downfall for me, the wine that goes with my camping meals doesnt' help either.

    I didn't make it this month, I think I am even heavier than when I signed for the challenge. I am up four pounds from goal weight now, so putting my program back on track.

    I started teh new rules of weight lifting for life training program, so I am a little sore today. So far food is on track too.

    I didn't make the two pounds this month, but I did lose 1 so I am okay with that! (I went on vacation in the middle of the month so that didn't help)

    I'm in! My goal is either the 2% BF or 1" at the waist. My stats as of September 2 are:

    5'6"
    134.9 lbs
    28.9 % BF
    30" waist

    I haven't had my BF% assessment yet ( I'm hoping to know by Friday) but here are my stats.

    132.7 lbs
    29.5" waist

    So a 2.2 lb loss and 1/2" loss in the waist. Not quite where I wanted to be, but I have recently added some ab work to my routine, so I hope to see some progress soon.

    Good luck to everyone on the next challenge!
