Today's weight - 122.4
I am on maintenance. Reached my goal of 129 on May 31.
Have lost an additional 6.6 lbs since then.
I was 126.4 on July 7. So far have lost 4 lbs on this challenge.
I am happy where I am now. Will just try to stay here through some vacations and the upcoming holidays and lots of fall festivals.
Wishing everyone good luck.0 -

Now it's working again! Physical set points and Mind set points are sticky wickets for sure, but it looks like the scale it ticking off properly again. 8.2 pounds so far this challenge. That's an average of 1.46 per week. yea!
Could it be faster?
Could it be more?
(should I be doing my strength training? --cough cough)
Sure, but all of this is way better than sitting at 250 pounds on the couch and saying there just isn't anything I can do about it, right? I remember being SO SORE all over my body and joints, SO TIRED I couldn't get through a full day without a nap, and SO FED UP with efforts that always hit a wall. 25 years of off and on and quit and fail where I really thought I was committed and trying hard. While I am still sore and my joints have days where I still dream of being reassembled and re-oiled like a doll, I am not in pain as often. While I still have tired days, I don't need a nap anymore. While I still get occasionally fed up, it is not my primary feeling now and when I get stuck it's only temporary. This is a lifestyle change.
Once it really clicks, it's SO DIFFERENT. Don't give up.0 -
Just back from a 3 week long vacation! This is the motivation I need to lose all the vacation weight and get back on track.

Vicki-That is amazing you have lost almost 7 more pounds, since reaching your goal in May. Its great that you have a cushion for all your events coming up. Do you feel like this lower weight is more the size you'd like to stay at, as a new goal? Sometimes people pick a goal, but when they get there they want to lose more. I have seen that on here. You have done great. Janice0

I weighed in today and my numbers were down, maybe its the more exercising, I am doing. I am 176.6 pounds, and moving alittle further towards the 160's. For this challenge 3.6 lost. Janice0

I am averaging about 1350/day. But I purposely lost the additional lbs because I am trying to get rid of some more fat around my middle. But I think I am done losing so will be upping my calories now.
I now just need to do more exercises for my core area.0 -

Exactly Janice. I found MFP so easy to do that I decided I wanted to get some more fat off my middle area. I have to stop losing now because I like my size now and just need to do more exercises for my core and firm up.0 -
