Finally I lost a pound after a month of not losing anything. So far I've lost 12.4 lbs for this challenge. Only 7.6 more pounds to go and I hope I can make it to the finish line I have a bad habit of eating way too much around the holidays. I really need to kick it up a notch with exercising even though I'm working alot of overtime right now and don't have much extra time.

It's early - I'm sure others will check in. I wasn't expecting much this week after last week's big loss, but I got to the 160s! I'm beyond thrilled. Congrats to both of you and everyone else to come for staying dedicated to this!

Sw: 184.2
CW: 169.8

Lost .7 this week, total of 14.2. Only 5.8 to go by Xmas!

Did anyone else notice that I can't do math before my coffee?

Zanne: I actually lowered my calories by 30 this past week to account for the weight I've lost and the lower burns from circuit vs running. I noticed that when you do custom goals, MFP doesn't automatically lower your calories as you lose weight. Maybe that'll help?

Sw:173.5
Cw:169.5
total loss, five pounds, so half a pound a week is still great with me! Thanks for all the continued support and way to go everyone on your amazing reulst, goal for Christmas for me is 165., slow and steady wins the battle in weight loss for me i guess.!

There's quite a few of us who are nearly at or just got to the 160s!! Nearly there... but not quite... only 0.6lbs down this week, but hopefully won't be too long... gives me something to keep working for! lol

It's such an inspiration seeing everyone's weekly total's tot up though! As they say, "you've got to be in it, to win it"... we're winning, so fantastic work everyone!!
