    This group is so motivating and nice to each other! Its so great to see everyone's input and goal setting!
    I havent been good since my carb-loading leads me to crave crappy foods....but now that Im done for nearly 1 month til my next set of races, I can concentrate on better choices and take in all your recommendations. Here are the last 3 weekend races...I know its no excuse to eat poorly, but I really do get super hungry these events (& thirsty for beer!LOL!) Thank you all for your great enthusiasm!

    Hello! My update so far: down 3 lbs in two weeks, pushing for a better result in the upcoming week. To everyone following this thread, keep up the good work! Are you motivated by a countdown ticker? A reward system? A weekly weigh-in versus a daily weigh-in? Use what works for you, and make things happen! You have the power to change, and we're all here rooting for you!

    Hey, is it too late to join? Because I'm aiming to lose 15 lbs by New Years!

    I was doing really well (lost 54 lbs since May) but completely fell off the wagon last month and gained almost 2 lbs back. I'm back on track, though, and could really use some extra motivation!

    CW: 270ish lbs (last weighed 3 days ago)

    Stayed the same this week which is a relief as I have been dreadful!! 7lbs lost so far 13 to go.... hopefully now that the PMT has gone I will be a little more focused and the cravings for chocolate won't be so bad!!!
