    And of course, I'll start... even though it's not the best report :ohwell:

    1. Current weight: 137.2
    2. Weight lost since last week: Zero, sadly
    3. NSV for the week: Jogged my first 3 miles without stopping to walk... thank you, Couch to 5k!!! Took 30 minutes, so about a 10 minute mile... woo hoo!
    4. Goals for next week: Well, this is getting to be a bit like Groundhog Day, but LIFT WEIGHTS, dag nabbit!!! I need to get some muskles on meh! Oh, and it would be nice to of course see the scale drop a bit... it's been awhile now.
    5. Weight to go: Only 2.2 lbs. Sooooo close!!!! Need to hunker down and get 'er done!

    Good luck everyone! And remember, even if it's not the best report, please report!!! We need to stick together. If you slipped this week (as did I), it's okay - we've got the rest of our lives ahead of us. Let's do this!!

    1. Current weight (optional) 182
    2. Weight lost since last week 0
    3. NSV for the week: I've been stuck on this plateau for 6 weeks now, and the other day I realized that I'm stressing about being stuck in the 180s, but i started in the 280s, and I was almost 270 just 10 months ago! Also, 2 people sent me friend requests this week because I am their "inspiration".
    4. Goals for next week 2 lbs
    5. Weight to go til Christmas: 22, which I'm sure I won't make, but I'll get there eventually!

    Awesome job, w2bab!!!! Sometimes it's best to look at the big picture. Looking back at where we started can be mind boggling, especially when it's a loss as impressive as yours! And even if we haven't come far, just knowing we started making a change, or even just started thinking about changing is a big leap. We talk about all these small steps, but actually they are really all BIG steps, because of the difference they make in us.

    And it's also so important to look at the big picture yet to come. Our Christmas goals are really just another mini-step to where we are going, and where we will be for the rest of our lives. And that is going to be a much brighter, happier place!

    I HAVE BEEN ABSENT - not sure if its been one week or two…
    i have gained 1.5 lbs but lost 1.5 inches since my last measurements were done in September.
    Last week I ran a 15k!!! in one hour and thirty six min - will do better next year - but it was a ton of fun.
    Am stepping up my protein and getting my mindset back on track - am hoping to log some lbs lost.
    my NSV for this week - ran 4 miles in 28 degree weather! running in the cold is one of my biggest hurdles…
