    My weight loss has stopped and I am about ready to give up! I started the couch to 5k last week. I hope this jump starts my weight loss!

    Down one pound.

    Know it sounds cliche, but think I am finally building muscle. Can hit my thighs and there is almost no jiggle.

    Getting there slowly but surely. Did a zumba class at the gym saturday morning. It was hard, but I loved it. Planning on starting to go to the gym twice a day starting tomorrow morning.

    Yippie! Hopefully that is enough to remotivate you. Don't give up, you are worth all the effort and boundless amounts more!

    Four pounds down last week, almost two thirds of the way there. Although pretty sure I am going to amend my earlier goal, and strive for the 140-150 range instead of 160.

    I'm down 10 pounds and I'm stuck. It's really starting to aggrevate me. I am doing the zumba class and doing strength training, but the scale is not showing any progress. I record everything I eat and always come in under my calories. HELP!!!!

    189.6 but as of this morning 186.4. I'm not counting that as true yet so I guess that makes a small gain. But a health wake up has me on the right track now!

    Oh my! I'm surprised and happy that everyone is still keeping this topic active! Thank you all very much! ;w;

    Recently I've been stuck around 317 because of the lack of funds to get my food. Which is a real bummer, but I have a new job and I've been able to get my food :)

    I'm trying out the Dr. Oz Dollar Diet and see how much that will work. I'm going to stick very hard to it since I've bought the food I need to and there should be no excuses as to why I don't stick to it!

    Still no internet at home so that's another reason why my weight is terrible, because I can't keep up with everyone :(

    I hope to have it soon and that I can be able to have support from everyone. Also I'm VERY behind on the chart because of my job (I'm working at Target :)), and also because of the chaos at home (long story...).

    I hope everyone continues to keep up the good work and that you all support each other. I promise to get the charts updated as soon as I can get a chance to. Having lack of internet is a drag! :(

    Been awhile since my last check in, so here goes:

    SW - 220
    CW - 170
    GW - 160

    So, I am fifty pounds down, officially no longer overweight, yippie! But have discovered a few things. First, 160 isn't going to give me the body I want, so am going to work on going lower. Secondly I am going to have to back off a bit and allow this to happen more slowly. Had cut out a lot of socializing with friends because we all like to drink and I didn't want the empty calories. But damn I miss my life.

    As much as I do not like to be the bearer of bad news I am not going to keep this challenge going. We're not getting any internet anytime soon so what's the point of struggling to keep up with this? :(

    I promise as soon as I do get access to steady internet I will make a new challenge and if anybody is interested in it you are more than welcome to join it :)

    As for now, this challenge is canceled due to the continuous lack of internet access. I'm sorry :(
