Yes, it's early for the start of our final week. I'm putting this in because I will be gone until Tuesday night. Heading out on a road trip to visit a terminally ill relative.
Week 6:
Challenge SW: 282#
CW: 267#
7 Day Change: -1#
Challenge Goal: 264#
My actual weight change is either more or less than what I've got here, depending on how you look at it. Last week I switched from weighing fully clothed, minus shoes, but including keys wallet, phone, etc. to weighing in shorts only. That gave me a minus two that would have been a plus one without the change in method. I let it go because I do monitor my weight through the week and I knew that little uptick was just a day to day flux from eating some junkier food. This week I'm balancing out. I weighed both fully and minimally dressed and put in the average. After this week I will be strictly to minimal dress for my checkins. Given the road trip I'm about to undertake, where I will be away from my computer and not logging in or tracking, I have doubts about meeting my 6 week goal for the final group weigh in, but we'll just have to see.

Week 4: 235

Week 6: 235
Ok, now I'm getting a bit frustrated. I mean I have had ice cream and pizza in front of me and not had any of it. There was two times when we went through the McDonald's drive-thru and I had salad with low fat vinaigrette. Still, this is the third week at 235. Well, it's not a gain. Maybe if I wouldn't have been so "good" I would have gained. And I am 5 lbs less than I was in Week 1. It's just really frustrating because any time I ever got serious about losing, it came off at about 2 lbs a week for a good while before a plateau. I haven't been losing long enough this time to hit a plateau. I guess I was a lot younger the last time I lost a lot. I'm not really complaining. I'm just talking to myself and trying to lift my own spirits. LOL
I hope you all keep moving forward. We can have little victories that don't involve the scale. I know I ate really healthy during the three weeks I stayed the same weight. That is great for my overall health. Thanks everyone and God bless.1 -

Keep it up. Change it up a bit, though. Increase calories or decrease. Put in some more exercise. Sometimes our bodies need to be shaken out of the plateau.1 -

I seem to be going in the wrong direction. I'm hoping that I can get my *kitten* in gear over the next several months, as I got my bridesmaid dress ordered for my brothers wedding and I really was shocked when I found out what size I needed to order. Now I need to get moving and really see what I'm eating.0 -

I'm just super happy that I finally got past my five month plateau! I've also stopped weighing myself everyday, now only weigh once a week first thing in the morning. My weight fluctuates too much day to day, so weighing myself daily is pointless.1 -

Thank you. I'm going to just have to start doing some things in my chair. I have mobility issues from arthritis. I do what I can but I can't do a lot of the housework anymore. My knees don't bend at all. I can't drive anymore and I can only get into a very few vehicles.
Anyway, today I got on the scale and it showed 233. I'm just hoping it's the same or lower on Friday then I will really believe it's fat loss and not my weight fluctuating again. Thanks so much for your encouragement. I will talk to my dietitian to see what he thinks about changing my calories. He's the one who set up the plan to fit my activity level and my lifestyle.

[/ most dieticians say weigh yourself once a week...same day, same time...usually with no clothes on...cuz those weigh different too. ]1
