I had my first comment on how small my bottom has got

Karen- great job! I know you really wanted to get into the 240's and you made it!

Gabe- great loss this week!!! You are just dropping pounds like crazy since this challenge started- so awesome! You are SOOO close to the 200s, too- keep on keeping on!

Margie- what a great week! Congrats on meeting your goal! I love seeing your little turtle on here- you are always so sweet and encouraging.

Buxbert- Woohoo for compliments! And great job this week!

Barney- Holy smokes you're doing awesome!

Mayve- You inspire me! Thanks again for doing this challenge.

Stewart- the 200's!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!! What a great accomplishment and I know just how good it feels to see a 2 in front instead of a 3. Keep it up!

I think that's everyone who's checked in so far this week- if not, my apologies (and great job- you rock! ) I love this group and have found it instrumental in my successes lately!

For all the new faces- welcome!!! Keep coming back, check in, tell us who you are, how you're doing. Give progress updates, talk about your struggles, talk about your victories! We are all in this together and accountability and support are key components to long term success. I've requested a couple new people- but if I didn't get to you- feel free to request me! I keep an open food diary and am pretty vocal.

Everyone have a superb weekend!

Wow, I'm really impressed with how well all the challengers are doing with weight loss and good mental strengthening! That mental part is so crucial to weight loss. That is the part that I am learning about now. The not giving up, not panicking when you have a bad day, week, or month...s like me! Stay the course, do your best and keep in mind that it's a journey, not a trip and nothing can really derail you if you just keep on making the effort! I'm down 5.2 pounds so far this week. I've added carbs like pasta and oatmeal this time so that I don't have the starved idea in my head and my blood sugar is more stable. I've even had ice cream and my addiction (Crunchy Cheetos) and just tried to stay in the calorie goal for the day. I haven't started back walking on a daily basis but I have upped my steps, and increased my water, so I'm happy! The weekend is upon and it's sunny here, so I plan to be out and doing things and that will surely help!
@Yennyboops - Hey girl, you'll love this group, it's so encouraging and inspiring!

Mar 09: 271.0 I will be out of town for the next two weeks, but I will eat to plan. I won’t have access to a scale at a predictable time or date, but I am still working my plan and in on this challenge.
Mar 16: 267.0 I am using a borrowed scale and I don’t completely trust it.
Mar 23: 268.0 Still out of town, and spending a lot of time in a hospital. Food and water have been issues, as well as the borrowed scale which reads a different number every time I step on it.
Mar 30: 268.0 My mother is dying. I can’t preplan and prepackage meals now. I’m hoping to just maintain for now.
Apr 06: 265.2 I am writing this on Sunday the 8th. My mother passed yesterday. I did still weigh every day.
Apr 13: 264.0 I am doing my best to log but don’t have internet access where I’m staying. I log in from my dad’s or my brother’s house as I can do so. Hate that my daily login streak broke, but what can I do. Service is tomorrow, and I’ll be here another week after that.
Apr 20: 262.2 I will be home on Sunday. I’m surprised given the circumstances.

Hello All, I'm Raven and I really need some help staying on track. My husband and I are wanting to take our kids on a Disney vacation next year. The problem is that I can't fit on some of the rides at my current weight which is 316.6lbs. I would very much like to get down into the 240's by June 2019. I chose this weight because I went to Disney with my husband for our anniversary many years ago at about that weight and had no issues with the rides. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. I want to be able to take my kids and be able to ride the rides with them. I have tried weight loss previously and haven't been able to keep with it. Additionally, I feel that if I can reach this goal then my ultimate weight goals will be possible. I really want this for myself and for my kids.

I worry about Disney in France too. I rejoined again. I have OVER 100 lbs to loose.

I would like to go on hol next year may 2019 ( last week )and be 200 lbs so would like to loose 112 lbs in 13 months. So my goal is to loose 8 lbs a month-

I've upped my step's - to 6000. I don't exercise other than walk as I have ME/CFS

Xxx

Lots of new faces here.....welcome! Having goals is a big motivator. Just keep your eye on the prize and you'll succeed. We all have a long road, sometimes it's a bumpy one, sometimes it's smooth sailing, but we are all on the same journey and it's great to have others to share it with on this thread. Once again, welcome!
