I am posting the newest topic as I have not yet seen it posted. I started this challenge at 250 and I wanted to be 235 by valentines day I am at 244 so I have lost 6 lbs I am hoping to be close to 235 but I think I set my goal a little too high, but I am determined to get off as much weight by the 14th as I can. Of course still being healthy. Wish me luck

    My day to check in is normally Tuesday, but I'm going to change it up a bit. I bought a new scale on Wednesday (digital) and when I got on it I weighed the same weight that I had started at two weeks ago :grumble:

    Anyway, I know that I've lost weight so I've upped my starting weight by what I think I've lost and now I just have more to go to reach my goal. Sounds complicated but I think I did the right thing.

    So here is my progress according to my new digital :grumble: scale:

    1/15 - 148
    1/22 - 146
    1/28 - 144
    2/1 - 143

    Goal for 2/14 - 135 (not likely :cry: but I'll try to get as close as possible :ohwell: )

    Yep, I think I set my goal too high as well...I'm at 174 and I wanted to be at 165. Still possible I guess...but not safe...so I'll get as close as I can get...as long as I am under 170 I will be elated.
    Have a Great Friday EVERYONE!

    After being in a rut at 143 for 4 or 5 weeks I seem to be making up for lost time! I have two weeks to lose two more pounds and I know I can do it!!!!! I hope everyone else is maintaining a positive outlook....don't let a plateau get you down, the last couple of weeks I've been shifting things up a bit to try and break 143....it works!


    Start: November/07 -- 157

    1st week January 11 -- 143
    2nd week January 18 -- 143
    3rd week January 25 -- 140
    4th week February 1 --137

    Valentine's Goal: -- 135
    Overall goal: -- 120

    I am struggling to break 180 - still!

    Weight at the start of the challenge -188
    Lost so far - 6 pounds
    Lost this week - zero :angry:
    Goal - 175

    I think that if I can just break 180 I will be happy as can be! I am going to take my running clothes to school and force myself to run before I come home everyday this week.

    Start (Nov) - 182.5
    1/28 - 165
    2/4 - 166 (infected toe, time of the month, Superbowl, etc)
    I cheated and weighed today because I have been working out A LOT this week to make up for last week, and I was 162.8!
    VDay goal - 160
    Still possible, but at least I will be close regardless, and I will be halfway to my overall goal. And gaining a pound last week for the first time since I started has really kick started my workout routine again. I'm actually running now, and I hate running.. but for some reason I have been enjoying it. Stranger things have happened I guess.

    The funny thing is that my boyfriend has been going on a lot of business lunches recently and now he wants to start weighing in and counting calories. We're going to have a little healthy Home Challenge!:tongue:

    Started Jan 1 at 160. Been maintaining 150 for the last 2 weeks. Happy about that considering that this week I had a 4000+ calorie day. Looking to lose 2 by next week by trying to keep my days under 2000 calories.
