    Checking in today at 168.9. I had a bad week dealing with pink eye. Planning to enjoy my Mother's Day meal and getting back on track Monday so I can register some real weight loss. Glad to see lots of people losing. Keep up the good work!

    Posting weight. I am so excited! I finally hit 160. This has taken me months. Maybe the over indulgence during Easter pushed me over my plateau. Happy Mothers Day to all the Moms out there. It's a beautiful sunny warm day here.

    Weight was all over the place this weekend between a family cookout & dinner with hubs & daughter. Expected a slight gain, so now I just gotta bust my butt these next two weeks. Does anyone else struggle with following an eating schedule on the weekends?

    For me it's always hard on weekend! I just don't feel like cooking, plus I feel like rewarding myself.. but on Mondays I feel guilty!

    I struggle as well on the weekends...kids are home, hubby is home and often we are going here there and everywhere so the options aren't always the greatest!! I try to make up for it by doing some extra workouts or family walks!

    Well I'm back to my starter weight, so I guess that's good - 2 pound weight loss. Checking in at 189. I weighed myself yesterday, but didn't get on a computer until today. Now it's time to get under the starter weight!

    hi guys I missed weigh in as I have had a medial collateral tear to both knee ligaments!!! eeeekkkk too much to soon with the exercising I think!
    Ive put on 5lbs in that time and Im now back on track so my current weight is 218lbs which is +5 :0(......looking forward to trying to get that back down now I can at least walk, cycle and swim, though Im not quite ready for the return to the gym just yet.

    Well done you guys xxx

    Wow, feel better nuttylou..... don't overdo it.

    In reference to Shellypoo's messge: I'm about to go to extreme measures now. No bread and little to no white sugar until further notice. I went out of town and really overdid it! I picked up a pound somewhere along the way from last Sunday to today. I am not happy!

    I'm with you on the giving up the bread and the sugar. I did good for 4 days and lost 9 lbs during. Then I took 4 days off and put back on 4 lbs. So i'm still down 5 lbs so i'm happy with that. So i'll see how doing the same thing this week goes,but i'm going to do 5 days on and and 2 days off.

    I would love to join you in losing at least 15 pounds by July. I am at a stand still/plateau and need to get motivated to move on.

    Sounds like a great idea! When you drop that bread and sugar - it really helps out alot with weight loss. I'm also trying hard to pick up more water too! The biggest difference I'm seeing is in my tummy...........even if I only loss 2 lbs, I feel like I've lost more because my stomach is so much smaller than it was a couple weeks ago!

    I think you definitely have the right attitude Lou05!! You just have to stick with trying your best and not revert to old habits. I was on a total plateau for the past month since starting this challenge so missed out last week updating... And now this past week the scale is finally starting to move a bit as am down almost a kilo. Really hoping I can drop another bit before next week's weigh in.

    Oh, have also really upped my water intake the past few days and that seems to really be helping, along with replacing a formerly carb-heavy lunch with things like salad with chicken breast or chicken and veg cous cous. No clue if that is what has got me off my plateau but the small changes seem to really have helped. Good luck in the coming week everyone!

    Ok. today is the first day of me taking extreme measures. I'm following the emergency plan found on the nowloss.com website. There are several emergency and permanent plans listed, byt i'm following the one titled 20 lbs in 3-4 weeks. I love the site but haven't tried any of his suggestions. This will be my first time. I'll let you know how it goes.

    How is everybody doing? It seems that some are getting frustrated with this weight loss thing (SMILE) - well add me into the bunch! I've lost one pound but I really seems like more to me. Maybe my weight is shifting, but I don't feel as heavy as I did a week or 2 ago. I have been sick so my appetite hasn't been too good - which I guess is a good thing for me for now!

    I have a question for you all - are you having regular bowel movements (I hope that's not too personal)? You do know that plays a big factor in your weight loss because you need to expel the foods you're eating on a regular basis! If you're not - try eating at least 1-2 salads a day and I promise you - that will help you GO (SMILE)!

    Enjoy your day all - and stay motivated!

    I woke up this morning and the scale read 239.8. So I wanted to take this time and say bye the the 240's. They were like a bad boyfriend that I allowed to stick around for too long. I'm so happy to see you go. 220's watch out, because here I come.
