    Down 2lbs. this week! Hope I can hang onto it, I'm afraid some of it had to do with the stomach bug I had earlier this week.
    @SuzMac1981 - Over 10lbs. already, that's awesome!

    Thank you! I joined that "Kickin' the cr@p out of August" challenge and every day is more challenging than the next! I think it's really helped in my weight loss... I am down another 1.2 pounds this morning! But I am going to save it for my "weigh in" for this challenge next week. :happy:
    I hope you're feeling better! To hang on to that weight loss... slowly ease back into eating and start lightly. Good luck!

    Don't worry about it - you were away! You'll lose it this week - just keep pushing and don't give up!

    Also... where are those couple of people who signed on for the challenge but haven't weighed in in a few weeks?! Come on back!!! We miss you!!!!

    Agree - come back!! If I don't hear from them in the next week or so, I'll take them off so we are working towards a "team" goal loss that is just for those participating...

    Hey ladies! Just wanted to check in to see how everyone is doing. Also I wanted to let you know that my goal for this challenge has changed, as I recently found out that I'm expecting! It is still early--just over 6 weeks--so keep your fingers crossed that all goes well! My goal is to basically maintain, or at most gain about a pound between now and the challenge end. I don't want my lack of weight loss to negatively impact the group total loss, so if it is okay I will continue to post, but maybe you can just not keep tally of my weight in the group goals. Let me know what you think!

    149.4 for me today....ugh. Way too much sodium these past few days, and these hormones are definitely taking a negative toll on my system--I feel so bloated. Hopefully that number will not be any higher next week. I've been staying at or under my maintenance calories, so I don't believe that all of it is true weight gain.

    Happy Saturday everyone!!!

    :embarassed: Sorry I've been MIA but I've been in a major funk lately and am trying not to give up. I hope I can get back into the swing of things and reach my goal. I'm currently up to 160 lbs. I will weigh in Sat. morning and give my official weight for the week, hopefully it will be lower.

    HANG IN THERE!! I've been up to, but just keep on logging and don't quit. Take a break from trying so hard, but don't quit! Sometimes we need a break from the pressure we put on ourselves. If you don't stay with it, you could be back up 10 pounds in no time and then you will be SUPER mad at yourself for stopping... Trust me, I've done it 10 billion times before! I've only been losing 1/2 pound a MONTH lately - BUT, if I 'quit', I guarantee you I will start gaining instantly. You can do it!!
