    1.6 lbs less

    17.7/20

    I am not complaining at all. I can honestly say that not once did I go to bed hungry. I always thought weight loss is not possible unless you are hungry, and boy was I hungry previous attempts.
    For so many year I have been on/off diets countless times, of course I couldn't keep it up as I always felt deprived.
    When I started this time I thought about signing up with a gym again, but then I decided against it. I was convinced that if I really wanted to lose weight I can do it without a gym.

    Nowadays I walk when I feel like it and I fell like it more often than not. Sometimes I just do a walk at home video. Not lately as my left leg is giving me trouble, but I can walk in a straight line without pain, so I do that.

    So far it is working and it is working so well that after I lost 5 kg MFP asked if I wanted to reduce calories I said no. I will do that once I notice that I can't lose anymore.

    I am very content at the moment.

    I just joined this group as I am looking for some challenges. Currently recovering from a blown out ACL and knee dislocation - my main motivator to lose weight so I can continue to ride my horses and enjoy my ranch life. So I will modify some of the challenges to accommodate that.

    My weight remained the same this week. Disappointed but not surprised. I'm still in Florida and still having lots of company. It's a real challenge to stay on top of things. I'm still walking lots but need to get control of my food. Oh well, this is big progress over same situation last year.

    Have a great week, everyone.

    Can someone please let me know if I can put reminders to check the group discussions? I have joined the group late and not posted so far.

    Anyhow, my latest attempt at weight loss started mid- January. Here is my progress so far:

    SW: 93.2 kg - 205.47 lbs (January 19, 2015)
    CW: 89.4 kg - 197. 09 lbs (February 24, 2015 - 4 kg/8.83 lbs difference in more than a month)
    EGW: 83.91 kg - 185 lbs
    FGW: 58 kg - 128 lbs

    Starting Weight - 68.3 kg (150.6lbs)
    January Week 2 - 68.2 kg (150.4lbs)
    January Week 3 - 67.5 kg (148.8lbs)
    January Week 4 - 68.5 kg (151lbs)
    January Week 5 - 67.5 kg (148.8lbs)
    February Week 6 - 67.3 kg (147.6lbs)
    February Week 7 - 66.1 kg (145.7 lbs)
    February Week 8 - 66.3 kg (146.1lbs)

    A gain of .2kg (.4lbs) doesn't bother me too much. I fit into my clothes even better. An old jumper that used to be super tight on my arms is now loose, and my "skinny" jeans are fitting me even better than they did before! :) And, huge NSV for me - somebody carried me on their shoulders at the Colour Run! YAY!

    I have been forgetting to log my weight here. My starting weight was 160. My current weight is 157, so I am down three pounds. (Goal by Easter is 150.)

    Here's the breakdown, I'm going a couple of days early because this has just been a super week of wins for me:

    Jan. 01- 183 lbs
    Jan. 08- 178.3
    Jan. 15- 177.3
    Jan. 22- 176
    Jan. 30- 175.5
    Feb. 7 - 179
    Feb.13- 178
    Feb. 20-175.7
    Feb. 25-173.7

    Easter goal-163

    Loss to date: 9.3 pounds or 5% since challenge start (so close to getting out of the obese bmi range and that is a HUGE victory for my health)

    I feel the July challenge is going to be my big win and am already thinking about it! But, there is still time to pull an Easter victory (fingers crossed bc I'm working so hard!)

    Great job with not feeling hungry, walking most days, clothes fitting better, and the NSVs!!!! This is such a great motivating group! I can't wait to see our group loss at the end. As of now, the group is down 789.9 pounds, maybe more bc of the kg weights!
