No formal membership, all can join to lose and try to lose a pound a week. Check First Page to see format and post your results.
39 weeks are remaining, many people will be very happy to lose 39 pounds!
In 2016 I lost 37, but didn’t quit. Tried again 2017 and lost 47#
Yesterday I reached my WW Goal Weight after trying five years! From 376 to 182 from age 65 to 70.
At my age (70) I know to lose a pound a week is a realistic goal that helped me get there.
Good luck.2 -
Challenge starting weight: 214lb

This week's successes: Couple of excellent workouts, including a sub 30 minute 5km run last weekend! I've been trying to do that for 6 years, I know I pushed a bit too hard as I got shin splints for the next couple of days but man did that feel good.
This week's challenges: The Easter weekend, Thursday was very indulgent as it is every year before the holiday kicks in.
So close to onederland! It's been 3 and a half years since my weight was 100-something, was pretty shocked to see that
