I'm starting this challenge at 196.6. I lost 9 lbs the last challenge and about 10 before that. I was at my heaviest last summer at 215. It's taken me awhile to STAY below 200, but I feel I'm finally heading in the right direction . The plan I'm on right now most days I try to stay around 1000 calories 5-6 days of the week with 1 or 2 days of 'eating up' at maintanance levels, which for me is about 1700. I need to get in more water and work in some exercise.0

After the initial 10lb, I've been losing and gaining the same 5lb ever since, haha. At this point I'm more concerned about non-scale victories, but it's always good to keep track! I also like SheenaBall's idea of setting weekly goals, so I'll go ahead and do the same thing here!

I'm a Tuesday weigher for the challenges. I find it helps me keep at it between here and my Friday MFP weekly weigh-in.
Good luck everyone! Let's do this!0 -
Hi, I will be 57 in July - retiring after 39 years of working and I am really worried about how that will affect my weight loss journey!! I am hoping it will be a positive change in that I will be able to be more active. When working I am very organized - things need to be done because I have to be prepared for the work week..... I hope I don't become complacent.

Hi I'm Bette. I have struggled with my weight for years. I have done well the last few months but need some support and accountability. Am looking forward to the challenge. It is 13 weeks until July 4 as I am joining late, so looking at just under 1.5 pounds per week, which is reasonable for me, and two more weeks past the challenge stop day to make 20 (I do not want to make the goal unreasonable and set myself up for failure. That is a goal I will shoot for, yes.
