CW - 161.6
Goal: 160
OMGOMGOMG!! 1.4 lbs from my goal which will put me down 40lbs this year. I honestly cannot remember a time when I weighed this little. Yes, I know that being in the 160s is not little but to me it is.
Congrats to all for you losses as well :flowerforyou:
May your Monday be productive!!

3. To budget my kcals for a couple of 'eating out' events that I know are on the horizon in Nov.

@rhon - happy dancing - congrats on making it to the 160's.
Has any-one got any good ideas for eating Thai out (besides avoiding/moderating the coconut/peanut rich sauces and fried rice's).0 -

You may have misread this thread. We are here to lose 2lb A MONTH. not a week, this group is for those going slow and steady.
With only 15lbs to lose according to your ticker 2lbs a week is far to high a goal. You should be aiming for 1/2lb a week of fat loss, lose it slowly, keep it off forever :bigsmile:
Feel free to stay and post if this works for you :flowerforyou:0 -
Whoops, it's been a busy few days and forgot to check in on Monday.
CW: 133.8
Woo! Once again I thought I wasn't go to lose anything and then come Monday morning it all falls off, and now I only have 3 more pounds until my 8 lb goal!0 -
Hi All - I apologize that I have not been able to update lately. I am currently in the middle of a pretty tough business trip so I am not able to get on as much as usual (gotta pay the bills )
Looks like everyone is doing great and remember - Slow and steady :drinker:0 -
GW = 155
SW = 182
Cw = 1820 -
SW: 178
CW: 136
GW: 130, more or less
Another pound down this week... that makes 2 for November. I know this is 2 a month, but I'll take it! :drinker:
Great NSVs, everybody! Every little thing counts.0 -
Sorry. I've been super busy with work and home life, so missed last week's check-in completely and almost this week's. But, as of 10/28/13, I was down another pound bringing me to 118. And I'm currently still 118, which is a miracle considering the Halloween candy and cookies I binged on this week. I'm definitely a stress-eater. Anyway, hoping to reign it back in, so I can make wise choices this holiday season.0

I had a large drop in weight this past week, which I think had to do with some water retention. A little faster than I wanted, but I'll take it.0 -
Sorry I missed logging my weight loss for last week. I've got family visiting so I've not been getting on here as much as I would like. I'm still logging every day though!

NSV...... I ran a 5k this morning. I run my first 5k race on Nov 28th and wanted to be under 45 mins ( yes, I'm that slow...lol) this morning I ran it in 43.34!!!! That's fast for me!! Beat my PB by 2 mins 05secs.0 -
Hi ... You know you are busy when you steal a quote from yourself and repaste it LOLHi All - I apologize that I have not been able to update lately. I am currently in the middle of a pretty tough business trip so I am not able to get on as much as usual (gotta pay the bills )
Looks like everyone is doing great and remember - Slow and steady :drinker:
Also... to all of you this is an "easy' place don't worry if you miss a week. What I see is a lot of us are involved in a bunch of other challenges and that is great!
And Remember: If you join now - realistically 2-3 lbs by New Years is what you might want to think about I am just happy that there are other people here that aren't obsessed with the rate at which they are losing weight as long as they are losing.,0 -
Everyone is doing so great!! Keep up the good work.
@Ghlt4 - great time for your 5k! I bet in the actual race you'll surprise yourself and go faster!
My CW is still 171.5, so I stayed the same again. Actually earlier in the week it was up, so at least it came back down to what it was. I'm hoping for a drop soon! It's getting a bit discouraging to be going so slowly, but my pants fit better, so that's good.0
