This will be my first ever MFP challenge!
My overall GW is 120 - I've lost 16lbs in total (over 9 weeks), i'm so close!!
No change this week - but it's that 'TOTM'
so that could be why (it's happened before)...
I'm just gonna keep doing what i'm doing and hope for a strong comeback next week!
Well done again everyone, this is great motivation2 -

Hi everyone,
This is a great idea.
CW: 147.5
GW for May: 142.5
I weigh in on Thursdays.
04th May: 145.5 (2lb loss)
11th May: 142 (3.5lb loss)
18th May: 140.5 (1.5lb loss)
25th May:
Total for May:
Interim GW: 133 although may drop this to 126 depending on how I look/feel when I get there.
Edited to add my first weigh in results from last night, 2lb loss, not a bad start I suppose!!
Weighed in last night and super happy with my results, another 3.5lbs off, so that's over the 5lbs for the month already. Hopefully I can drop say another 3lbs before the end of May.
Lost another 1.5lbs last night, super delighted!!!4 -
