    Hi guys

    Weekend weigh-in
    Today 145kg

    Starting my third week on this plan but I suspect now that my body will be adapting and the weight loss will slow down.
    It's had a bit of a beasting over the last couple of weeks.

    Check -in weight: 280lb.

    Didn't get to excercise as much as I wanted because I was sick, but next week will be better. Antibiotics are great things!

    Good work men! Keep up the good work!

    Fact: Did you know that it is considered 'reasonable' to lose up to 1% of your weight? It's easy to lose more initially (comes off fast initially), but for several weeks of weight loss, 1% is a good goal per week. For example, I've lost 4-5 lbs per week for the last 2 weeks, but I am only trying to lose 2-2.5lbs per week. This is difficult when there is a lot of weight to get rid of. Patience is the key! You'll get there!

    My weigh-in is 251.8lbs.

    Still waiting for 5oh9 (last week's champion), Jerrytcher, thadius, safetyscott, and chris_andress.

    Hi, just wondering if it wasn't to late for me to join? This looks like something that could help me stay on track and perhaps I could help keep others motivated.

    Week 2 Results! Congratulations PaulC9554! Way to go! Keep it up!!

    Note: We have a few new members this week. Also, a few people who started on January 2 haven't reported this week. If people don't report for two weeks in a row, I will omit their name the following week. However, they are welcome to return.

    Kforrest1, I am going to assume you started at 275 and you are now at 270. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Keep up the good work!!

    Hello all,
    I'm pretty new to this support group system and decided that I would try it out. It would be helpful to share my progress with others and also to be motivated by others' progress. Here is the plan:

    On a weekly basis (send stats Sunday), update the group. I will put it into a chart and repost the details. Post the following details (here are mine):

    Current weight: 260lbs
    Goal weight: 215lbs
    Method: Walking, eating less - lose 2lbs/week

    Let's do this!
    I have a VERY similar goal, though im 40 lbs more than you right now. My goal is to be around 215!

    Hi

    Saturday morning weigh-in:
    143kg = 314.6lbs
    I've changed my goal settings today due to being more active in the gym than I initially anticipated being.
    Have a great weekend.
