    SW: 150.4
    GW: 146
    W1: 150
    W2: 150.6
    W3: 151.0

    UGH! Scale, I hate you. I've gained 0.6 lbs since this challenge started, I wanted to lose 4 and now there's only 1 week left :( I know this extra pound is TOM this week, but I'm really hoping once it's gone I'll see the scale go down to below 150 at least. I started training for a 5K last week and I've been at the gym working out pretty intensely 4 days during the week. Now I just need to behave with my eating this weekend and I think i'm on a good path.

    I have. :) Its more for the insulin resistance that PCOS causes. It is wonderful!! It takes the constant hunger away and I don't get sleepy or tired anymore either. I swear it has saved my life!! Its called Victoza. Its a tiny shot but I will never be without it again!!! I now know that I can get healthy!!! I can not say enough good things about it. You can look it up on the internet but be sure to ask your doctor about it. Its a little on the new side. Its worth asking about. :)

    last week: 152.4
    this week: 151.6

    loss: .8

    Wednesday night is the night that I go to a dinner party at a friend's house and usually don't count my calories... just try to watch my portion control. I've been getting so much better at not overdoing it, but I don't usually feel good about getting on the scale first thing Thursday - I still feel full - ugh.

    Only one more weigh in left in the challenge! 1.6 pounds left to go. That is still achievable. Wish me luck! :)

    Bring it home everyone! We can do this!

    SW: 137.5
    Week 1: 136.0
    Week 2: 136.5
    Week 3: 138
    GW: 134.0

    Total Loss: +0.5
    Pounds to go: 4.0

    The process of buying and selling a house has caused me to not make exercise a priority and eat out many nights over the last couple weeks - including last night. I ate more than I usually do and had more sodium than I usually do. Not to mention the stress....I'm going to check in again tomorrow, but I have some work to do this week!

    Well last week i was 180lbs
    (and because i don't have a scale that tells me if i've lost like .5 of a pound, i'm still at 180lbs, but it looks like it's verging to 179 which would be my goal :)

    I'm sooo close!
  • I lost half a pound.
    Last week: 176
    This week : 175.5
    I will take it. I might not make it to my goal, but at least I lost some weight while doing this challenege.

    02/17/11 - 223lbs
    02/24/11 - 222lbs
    03/03/11 - 220lbs
    03/10/11 - 220lbs

    No change for me this week. I have upped my workouts the last week and a half so maybe it is just water retention to repair my muscles (I hope). Good job everyone! Keep up the good work :flowerforyou:

    I'm going to give it hell this week and try to get those other 2 pounds off to meet my challenge goal. Only down 0.9 pounds this week, but I'll definitely take it since the monthly bloat is upon me. Looking forward to the Easter challenge after we complete this challenge!!! :smile:
