    Me too! Count me in. I'm 62, been so busy homeschooling my kiddos, now that three of them are in college I think I can make time to do this. I want to lose 30 by June 15, that's my birthday. It would be a very nice present. :smile:

    A little late to the opening party, but count me in.
    6lb lost so far - 24 to go! (For the challenge, I want to lose much more, but this is a great challenge. Health issues prevent excercise - so might be tough!)

    I realized I forgot to post! I weighed this last Thursday

    Challenge SW: 12/29/16: 216.0
    CGW 6/15/17: 186.0
    GW: approx. 158.0 (based on initial goal body fat of 23% - Previous goal was 156. I've put on some muscle. Yay!)
    UGW: 18-20.5% body fat

    Weight loss method: Weighing, measuring and logging all of my food. Ensuring I have enough protein and good fats for satiety. Kettlebell and lifting workouts. My goal is 130g of protein each day and 25g of fiber.

    My averages for the week were 125g of protein and 30g of fiber, so a bit short on the protein side. I think I need to keep cooked chicken breast on hand so I have something to eat end of day if I need more protein.

    This past week I only had 2 workouts - I was feeling pretty fatigued and my right knee is acting up. I focused on staying active (laundry, housework, etc.). I'm going to workout to today and see how everything feels.

    1/5/17: 213.0, -3.0
    1/12/17: 211.2, -1.8
    1/19/17: 209.6, -1.6
    1/26/17: 208.4, -1.2
    2/1/2017 206.8, -1.6
    2/9/2017 205.2, -1.6

    Challenge Loss: -10.8 (More than a third of the way there and 19.2 to go!). I know my rate of losing will slow down soon, but I'm happy with the results so far. I've been super diligent in weighing all of my food and logging consistently, so that helps tremendously.

    Welcome everyone one who is new! Keep up the fantastic work everyone!

    Starting weight: 239 lbs 1/2/17
    Goal weight: 209 lbs by 6/15
    Current weight: 221.0
    weight loss to date: 18.0
    Weight loss method: low fat, low sugar, low calorie, logging everything I eat.... and TRYING to lay off the alcohol.

    I am home after being gone for the last week at a conference for work. I learned a lot, ate a lot, and drank a WHOLE lot! I wasn't expecting to lose anything, so I was really happy to have lost a half a pound! Whoo hoo!

    For next week, I'll be focusing on really watching what I eat, so I can lose those two pounds to get to the 20 pound mark. Let's do this!

    So nice to see so many new faces! Have a great week!

    https://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php?type=3L

    Try the above link. It should get you to the Ticker Factory site. Follow the prompts and create a ticker you like.

    At the end you'll be asked to choose a format. Chose the BB format. Copy the line of gibberish in that box. Then go to our 30 pounds by June forum and paste that line of gibberish in a reply box. I think there is an option to preview a post. When you preview your post you should see the ticker. Then you can go back to edit and finish your post.

    Hope that works for you. I'll be looking for your ticker.

    Happy early Valentine's Day. I'm hoping I don't get any chocolates tomorrow. I have a weakness for them and they will sabotage my efforts. If they are somebody else's gift I can fend off the occasional offer to partake. However, if they are mine I will eventually cave and devour them myself.
    I think my plan will be to offer them to everybody I see before my reptile brain takes over and I start eating everything I see. At least I have a plan. Hope it works?????

    I plan on giving candy to everyone I see tomorrow! The more everyone else eats, the better I look! :smiley:

    Not my weigh-in day but I wanted to tell everyone how chocolate DID NOT sabotage my Valentine's Day. Managed to avoid sweets all day but I did cave on my Paleo (caveman) diet. We had a new restaurant open in town and it was calling my name. So wifey and me had a lunch date that kind of went off the Paleo track.

    Oh well, I'm back on track and hoping there is enough time between now and Friday morning to make a difference. I try not to sneak a peek of the scales between weigh-ins, so we'll see what happens Friday morning. I'll check back in then.

    Today I lost 20 pounds, so I did a progression photo. On the left is before I lost any weight, and on the right is a picture I took today. Not only can I not tell that I lost any weight, I actually look BETTER in the left pic when I'm 20 pounds heavier. I am totally depressed now.
