    I need this so bad I'm a little behind but so so need the support. I weighed today 243.50 so 50 lbs by june 1 would be awesome.
    That would put me at 193.50..Good luck everyone.

    Still at 199.5 no loss/no gain...i'm ok with that for the moment because I messed up this week so thought it would be higher.
    Great job so far everyone!

    1.7 lbs per week. This is very doable.

    I would like to jion as well! I have been here for 2 weeks this site has been a godsend. Just entering my food intake was a real eye pener. I have cut daily calorie intake with out really trying. I was shocked at the amount of calories i was consuming on a daily basis. I took advantage of a benefit at work and jioned the cardiac rehab gym, so now as long as i remember to bring a change of clothes i work out everyday as soon as i am done with work.
    I started at 265 pounds i would like to get to the weight i was when my partner and i met which is 180pounds.
    Thanks everyone for the support.

    Ok so I am really proud of us!

    115 pounds lost in the first week and we had some late starters etc. The ones in yellow have either not got back to me or do their weigh ins on different days. Overall though we need to keep this up.

    If you didn't have a great first week, please please do not lose heart! This is a journey not a sprint. Just keep making the right choices and we will make it I am sure.

    Down 2 pounds in the first week - from 240 to 238. (although it feels like a bit more as I've been bouncing slightly above the 240 range for the first few weeks since I've joined.

    Definitely almost slipped back into my most frequent challenge - stressed at work driving home, and thinking about what food I could stop and buy that woudl make me feel better. Didn't - but it was close.

    Do others face that challenge? How do you cope?

    You go girl!! I can't wait to do that. I have a box of stuff that I refuse to throw away, determined to wear them again (whether they are in style anymore or not) lol... :tongue:
