    I weighed in today: 136lbs! I didn't lose... but most importantly... IDIDN"T GAIN!!!

    It is not to late to join us!!! This is turning out to be one hell of a challenge!!! But I think having this challenge really did help me this week with Christmas. I had this challenge in the back of my mind the whole time. I ate a little bit of everything but didn't go over board!!

    I have read that you can not target specific areas to lose fat. I'm rather busty and I have been trying to target them to get smaller. no luck. As I have been losing weight though... I can see them shrinking!!! I think if you start doing some weight lifting you might get more toned in your stomach and back!


    GOOD LUCK!

    Thats what I though so yea I need to lose weight. I was thinking maybe having daily challenges maybe like an exercise or food challenge daily so we can keep accountable and a little extra to our fitness routine.

    hows e/b doing?


    Not to bad.. not too good =) haha! Lost like .2 so far. UGGG. the more you lose the the harder it is to lose. I have a small amount left to lose and its hanging on for dear life!!

    I've been staying under my calorie limit and doing the 30- day shred everyday. I'll weigh myself again on monday!

    Hi everyone! I just got back yesterday from a two day trip to Pittsburgh! I had soo much fun but ate way too much! I had yummy Chipotle for lunch on tuesday and Smallman Street fries from Primanti Brothers for a late late dinner (fries with sour cream, cheese sauce, and bacon). Then for lunch i had the biggest piece of pizza from Bella Notte in the strip district! I had so fun but am starting to feel a little guilty about eating that much now. Oh well, cant wait for 2011!!!

  • I'm getting MArried Aug. 13, 2011!

    I live in Ohio. We are required to list our age, weight, height, eye/hair color on our drivers license. They don't actually weigh you so even if you are 200lbs...you can fill in 130lbs. they don't question it. obviously I know how much I really weigh.... So I just don't want to lie to myself. I don't want to feel ashamed to list my actual weight!

    oh. that's crazy. i was born in dayton, oh but move to KY when i was 5. here in KY they don't require us to list a weight. only height, age, eye color.
  • CW 181 yesterday on 01/01/2011 i was 182

    my goal is to try and not weight myself dailly and only weigh weekly

    how is everyone doing??
  • sorry guys gained 6 lbs over the holiday season. Back on track but it is going slow. Hope to still lose another 10 - 15 lbs but I guess now my goal will be for Valentine's Day. Hope all you are doing better than I have done. Kind of a disappointment for myself but I will make my goal.....I will!!!!

    Well something is better than nothing! I'm just glad I'm not gaining. I think I've hit a plateu. Since I've lost 21lbs.... My weightloss has tremendously SLOWED. SO with the advice of other MFPers.... I upped my calories. I was told my body has to adjust to taking in this new calorie amount ( I think I had put my self in starvation mose) after my body adjust to the extra calories.. I should start seeing results again.... hopefully sooner than later!

    We get there in no time! Hang in there!
  • i hope so...good luck!! :)
