    Hey everybody I have been thinking about it for quite a few months now and I can see that quite a few people want it so from next month I am going to be making this into a group I just got to iron out a few details and then I will get the group up and running by the start of October so my details to follow and when I do have the group ready I will post the link in this thread. I can't believe how well these thread have been going I started doing these from January 2015 after the person who done it before stop doing it so check back in the next few days where I should have all the details.

    Cool! Maybe some would like to share things and on here feel it is mostly supposed to just be weight posting. But would that muck up seeing just the weights? Maybe not if Saturday was just weight posting. We will have to come up with names...Yeah! You won't have to restart it every month then. You are awesome and motivating!

    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!

    Didn't make the 6.2 lbs that would've taken me out of the 200's. I have to do better - need to stop the cycle of gaining and losing the same lbs.

    09/16Fri: 115.4
    09/23F: 115.8
    End of the month (09/30 Friday): 114.8

    Total weight lost: 7.4#

    Day 27 of diet, and I love the lack of cravings for carbs.

    I didn't even think I could lose 5# when I joined this Group, so I'm extremely happy with the weight loss, even though I didn't meet my updated monthly goal.

    I am:
    - 1# from my lowest weight ever
    - 6# from my 1st goal
    - 20# from my ultimate vanity goal weight (which will change depending on the lean muscles that I'll see in the mirror)


    Great job everyone!!!
    Off to a girls' weekend = my Challenge to keep the weight from going up.
