    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' :s 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 motivation :)

    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!!!

    I hope your May goal is 265. A little more reasonable, lol. You've done really well. Don't let TOM get you down.
