    I'm claiming a half pound loss (and I had to squint), considering an unfortunate weekend I'll take it. I have one pound left and it is by far the hardest pound to lose, it's like gum on my shoe!! I insist on making my goal by the 4th. Since my hip is recovering my plan is put a few more miles in on the treadmill, that has the biggest effect by far on my progress. I could not have done this without running.

    Hard to believe we are almost finished with this challenge. I've seen Shaky and now Shmu hit their century marks during these challenges--that is just remarkable to me and really encouraging. Shmu's latest before/after shot is fantastic--check it out.

    Dearannna and AZ0310 have blown through their goals and are proceeding onward--congrats on a great loss!!

    For those who have stuck with it (there are a few of us left), way to go! Two weeks left--keep going!!

    Original SW: 149
    Challenge SW: 143.3

    6/6/14: 141.0
    6/13/14: 140.5
    6/20/14: 139.9

    Just barely under 140! 140 is where I got stuck for several months last year until I gave up and started eating too much to get back up to 152. Here's hoping I can keep moving down!

    Beach vacation starting tomorrow. Planning lots of walking, kayaking, and other activity to balance out the eating.

    Wow, almost one year and I hit 100lbs down but still a lot to go. But I am so happy, I can't believe I did it. It has been a long battle with lots of times of wanting to give up and give in to temptations.

    If I can do it at 60 years old, you all can too. Keep up the good work and the strong will. You'll do great!!! :flowerforyou:

    LW: 158
    CW: 155.5

    Loss this week: 2.5 lbs.

    Finally saw a breakthrough. Unfortunately, it was probably because I've been sick all week. But I'll take it!

    Down a pound this week. Its been a stressful week (daughter driving from california to OKC by herself) good thing Im not a stressful eater. Hopefully the weight will come off at at a faster face now that she's back home and staying with us until she gets a job and settled. She's really into eating healthy and exercising, so maybe it will rub off on me. Today we are joining the gym.

    Leaving on a cruise tomorrow but have got my weight down to 127.5. Goal for this week on the cruise is to not gain! Won't have free Internet access so will be keeping a paper food log while I'm gone.
