Hi everyone. It's Sunday the 5th of January here in Australia and I've just done my first weigh in of the NSC challenge. Now, I'm not saying it's pretty, but it's where I am so here we go:
SW: 123.8kg or 272.9lb
GW (end of challenge): 108kg or 238lb.
Loss so far: 0kg
Remember to always weigh under the same conditions every week, guys, so we can get an accurate idea of where you are with your weight. We'll also track exercise hours and average water consumption, if you want to add those.
Good luck everyone!

My turn...
CW: 237.4 lbs
GW: 217-212 lbs after 90 days. That's averaging about 2 lbs per week.
UGW: 180 lbs0 -
Alright, I weighed in this morning Jan. 5th! I'm ready to get started. I'm really excited about this.
SW- 165lbs
GW- 150lbs0 -
Okay...here goes...
SW 184
GW (1 lb a week minimim) 172 by end of 90 days.
***Goal, this week....drink my water each and every day.
Increase my exercise from 30 minutes 5 times a week to 45 minutes 5 days a week...plus some! (starting today with an hour bike ride).
I will encourage everyone to write your goal of how you are going to obtain the weight loss for the week.
90 days is about 12 weeks....2 lbs a week is realistic for some of us...I'm a slow loser. But am realistic. I see to many people not set food/exercise goals, and intend to lose 5 lbs a week, and by the 3rd week they drop out of these challenges.
good luck this week everyone. Feel free to friend me, or send me private messages for any encouragement!
Thanks!0 -

SW: 203.5
GW: 191.5
Loss so far: 0 lbs.
I hope to lose a pound a week for the duration of the 12 weeks. In my fantasy world I'd like to break into the 180s by the end of the challenge, but I'm trying to be realistic. I got new batteries for my scale last week and weighed myself to make sure they were going to work today. I weighed in at 204.1 on Thursday, so at least I know I'm not totally doing this wrong. I started before today because I'm a believer in "change it now, not later."
Small Victory of the Week: When I was out with a friend who I always end up eating junky foods with, I turned down her offer for free lunch and cupcakes. It was hard for me to do since we were standing right in front of the glass cases filled with deliciousness, but I refrained. It was nice because it showed me that I CAN say no and I CAN still enjoy my food intake without eating crap all the time.
Focus of the Week: Mixing up my menu with healthy alternatives (hummus with carrots instead of ranch, tilapia with veggies instead of a deli sandwich) and getting up and doing SOMETHING for at least 30 minutes a day.0 -

Hello everyone
CW 172lbs
GW 142lbs
UGW 130 lbs
My goals are to exercise 45 min X 5-6 days a week, stay as close to my target calories as possible & be consistent with logging...so let the challenge begin0 -
Happy Sunday weighed in this morning at 148.4
goal weight in 90 days is 140. I would like it to be about a lb a week but I am imagine I will slip up since I have over the past few years. Good luck to every one this week.0 -
CW - 245.4
GW - 230
UGW - 184
I figure 230 is achievable for a 90 day challenge, that's 15 lb. over 3 months.
*Edited to add my plan of action!
I replaced my chair with a stability ball almost a year ago and have lost most of my weight so far by rocking the ball daily, My mfp starting weight was 312.5.
Got a weight bench for Christmas and am beginning strong lifts 5x5 today. I also have a set of trekking poles so I will be incorporating a 1 - 2 mile walk 3x a week.
I am a big fan of IIFYM and that is what I will continue to follow for eating during the challenge.
Good luck everyone!0 -

Hey beverley770
glad you have joined
However, 900 cals is way too low! I think 1 200cals is minimum for females.

Anytime, hon. I'm slightly concerned about your 900 calorie intake goal. Can we up to 1100 or 1200? Just because anything below the 1000 mark will almost definitely cause a starvation response that makes it more difficult to shift the weight, and can be dangerous to your help. Everything else looks infinitely do-able! Excited to be doing this with such an awesome group! 0 -
Hi Tara!
Thank you, I'm glad I've joined too :-)
Heard from somewhere for females to lose weight you have to work on 1,000 calorie intake. I really want to lose weight as quickly as I can, so thought I'd push it further.
Unfortunately, have not been doing very well, with Christmas and all, (but working through and exercising). Things will get better as I'm back to work Monday!

Beverley770 I agree with Tara the 900 calories a day is way too low. It will actually slow your metabolism and cause your weight loss to dramatically slow. Trust me, I know from my own personal experience. I lost weight but it took months. As soon as I upped my calories to about 1400 a day my weight started dropping and I got leaner. I now have a goal of around 1750 calories a day. Just keep those calories as clean as I can. A lot of raw nuts and olive oil0 -
SW: 139 lbs
GW: 127 lbs
UGW: 120 lbs
I am going to stick with what I have already been doing the last two weeks cause it has been working pretty well. (I was at 142.4lbs two weeks ago) I am doing insanity 6 days a week, eating clean, home cooked meals, logging my food, and drinking no less than 8 cups of water a day. I will allow myself a treat once a week. I have also taken my measurements but I am not sure if we are supposed to be posting those as well.0 -
Well, to be honest Coolchick207, as you can see, have been finding it difficult, being this time of the year so have been having more than 900 calories but working it off!
Thanks, but will see how I go for the first couple of weeks back at work
