    Hi Everyone! Weighing in. How did you do last week? I didn't lose a pound but I didn't gain anything back and I've lost another 1/2 inch in my waist line. Feeling great! Hope you all are, too, and so glad you're here.

    And I will say that we ordered pizza and wings last night. While fun, the calories just aren't worth it unless I've burned 900 calories that day doing exercise.

    Good morning!
    SW May 1: 169
    Sept 11: 151
    Sept 18: 149.5
    Sept 25: 147.5 (4.5 in Sept so far)
    I lost 2 pounds this past week but don't feel well. I don't think I ate enough for all the calories I burned, to be honest. We have to listen to our bodies! Good luck to all! Don't give up!

    Some of that can be water weight. So it's likely not a huge deal.

    Good news, I lost two pounds this week. This weekend, my dear friends whisked me away for a girls trip to celebrate my upcoming birthday. It was a great weekend and I ate pretty well. However, I did not record my drinks- beer, tequila, martinis-EEK. Oh well, you only turn 50 once! I'll get back on track and see what happens to the scale this week.

    I didn't want to post but know I have to be accountable. I'm up 2 pounds. Lots of visiting and eating this past week. I'm finding motivation difficult as my husband often buys junk food.

    I'm in!!! I Lost 70 pounds in 2011-2012 for my big 4-0 (from 211 lbs down to 141 lbs). I have been up and down since then. Right now at 170 and I'm feel horrible!! Trying to hit 140 lbs by February. The 9 pounds in 9 weeks sounds like an awesome start! Let's do this!

    As of Saturday, down to 166.8!

    Seems like you're doing well and realistic progress. between the 12-18th that was 7 days and one pound, between the 18-23rd that was 6 days and you never know what tomorrow the 7th day will be! It could be the next pound! :)

    9/14--166
    9/17--165
    9/23--164

    Ha ha thanks lovely- I think no loss is due to the bottle of wine and quality street (sssss) I had at weekend! So feel lucky! Appreciate your support!!

    Hey 50shades... We all have weeks like that but I'm wondering if you're up for consequences / challenge - you said you need a bit of motivation! How about 50 star jumps... Every day until next weigh in?? Happy for you to challenge me - I didn't lose any this week either!

    9/11: 171.2
    9/17: 168.7
    9/18: 171.8

    I am hoping this is just water weight. I have been faithfully working out and staying within my calorie range for three weeks now! I'll blame it on my week-long business trip to NYC. And the flight home yesterday. And the beer I had for dinner last night. And TOM (i.e. time of month). Even if it sticks, the exercise has really helped my mood and I feel stronger!

    I accept your challenge. You're on! I challenge you to single leg dead lift with a fly, 30 seconds each side. Thanks for the motivation
