SHORTY'S 12 Week Challenge! (Read more!)

Morning Shorties!

I am at 134 today. It's almost a 3 pound gain from the last time I weighed in, but I guess that's what happens when you can't workout for 2 weeks. Also, I ate ice cream twice last weekend... yea, I deserve the gain, but it's so depressing because I was so close to getting out of the 130s.

Okay, back on track.

You are still doing a great job! How tall are you? Maybe you have more muscle mass now from working out. My final goal weight right now is actually 135 and I'm 5'2. I had been in the mid-high 120s in my early 20s, but I don't think my body could sustain that anymore... especially not after a baby. I think I will feel great when I make it back to 135 and maintain it!

I'm 5'0. 134 looks heavy on me. I do know I have some muscle and I'll probably not get to 115, because of it (I'm okay with that). But I need to be at least in the mid-120s. Thanks for the encouragement!

Hi everyone, hope you all had a great week

Well after last weeks gain :mad: I had a much better week this week (no long weekends, birthday parties or general eating out) and managed to lose 3.4 pounds - yay!!

Height: 5'2"
Starting Weight: 169
Current Weight: 149.2
12 Week Goal: 150
Loss this week: 3.4
Total Pounds Lost: 19.8

So this week I have gone under 150 :happy: , reached my goal for this challenge :happy: and have now lost over 60 pounds since starting on MFP :happy: woohoo!!

Ok just wanted to quickly come and update, just got back from the gym and we have an unusually nice winters day here today so I'm going to bundle the boys up and take them out for a walk to the shops while the sun is shining - beats being stuck in the house with 2 3year olds which has been driving me crazy all week because the weather has been too bad to take them out!!

Be back later to see how evreryone is going

Hi all.....I'm at 147 this week, finally stuck in the 140s I hope, really this tim!
Also lost 1.5" from waist and 3" from hips, need more gone from this area and upper arms and inner thighs lol!! I hope I can get to 145 by end of challenge!

I am weighing in this morning at 153.2. Everyone have a great day!!:happy:

Susan, you rock!!! :smokin: You left us behind in the dust with this pace!

Thanks!! Although, I lost more because I had more to lose!! And Amanda stayed right with me!! Good job Amanda!

Morning everyone!! Wow I can't believe its been 12 weeks already. I weigh in this morning at 152.0. Everyone have a great July 4th!!

Hi everyone, how has your week been

Big congrats to everyone who has made it through this challenge, you are all fantastic, whether you reached your goals or not!!

Foxylo22, Yay for making the 160's that is just awesome!! It can be frustrating when you work so hard and it does'nt show on the scales, do you do regular measurements, I'm sure this is where you will really see the difference!! Great work.

Susan, what can I say - you are so consistant and your weight loss this challenge is just amazing, it was a challenge just trying to keep up with you :happy: You are right for all those that started smaller, it is much harder to shift the weight as you get closer to your goal, but you show that if you keep working at it the losses will still happen. Awesome job!

astauff, great job on losing weight this week even with a few bumps along the way and 11.6 pounds, woohoo that is fantastic!!

Keep up the good work everyone, it is so worth it!!

As for me I finished up at 147.7 so I am very happy Thanks again to Kristen for starting this challenge, it has helped me get closer to my goal!!
