You're my stats twin, Mikayla! Right now I'm around 161 and hoping to get down to the 130s. Here's to 155, we can do it

Hi Everyone! My name is Kat, age 27. Healthy eating and excercise are passion to of mine.Looking to loose around 2kg/4.4lbs this month. I have done a body composition test and my total target at the moment is to loose 4-5kg/11lbs - mostly body fat and keep musle mass. October was very slow month as I was very sick for couple weeks with chest infection. Still taking it easy with excercise, because I'm easily out of breath. But I'm tracking all my food. Wish luck to everyone in this challenge and I'm sure we will do great!
P. S @HASWLRS I'm changing my Weight in day to Fridays.2 -

Previous Week's weight: 161.3

What went well this week: Stayed within my goal of 1200 calories. I do have my fitbit synced up to MFP though, so I do eat back those adjustments!
What to improve for next week: I started C25K on Monday, then got some super cold on Wednesday and didn't do it for the rest of the week. I also didn't eat hardly anything Wednesday, so I feel like I might've lost a little extra due to that.

Hi everyone. My name is Kari. I'm 29 years old and live in Kansas City! I've always struggled with being overweight. I am an emotional eater and it's hard to overcome. In December 2017 I was the heaviest at 326. I am currently down to 300! Not a lot of weight loss but it's better than last year!! My goal weight is 200lbs. I am excited to restart this journey. I'm on the Slim for Life program so chicken and veggies mostly.3

The good news, Marion, is that you lost a little weight!! The really good news is that, because your weigh-in day is Saturday, you have a whole week before you have to officially weigh-in. (The Challenge runs Sunday to Saturday). Your first official weigh-in day is Saturday the 10th!! Just think how much more you can lose in a week!!
The Mini Challenge also runs Sunday to Saturday, so today, Sunday the 4th, is the first day of the Mini Challenge!!1 -

Well done, Danielle!! A fantastic loss for you, and a great start to the November Challenge for team The Big Butt Theory!! Don't beat yourself up for coming down with a cold last week. When you are feeling well enough, you will start up your C25K again! It is important to rest when illness dictates. You wouldn't want to injure yourself!!2 -

Hey there! My name is amber & im 27 years old. I am an emotional eater and I just became my heaviest I’ve ever been and I feel so ashamed and disgusted. I’m currently 312.2 & now is the time to change. I’m hoping this challenge will keep me accountable and motivate me to lose !!
Back in 2012 , I started my weight loss journey the first time and within almost 2 years I lost 80 pounds. I was so proud of myself and I accomplished so much! In 2014, I lost my dad and within the 4 years I gained all my weight back and then some. I basically gave up and stopped tracking. My depression became really bad after my dad passed and once again I found comfort in food. Since then I struggled to find the spark I had in 2012-2013. Now that I see my heaviest , I’m hoping that will wake me up enough to put forward the effort to lose!4 -

I’m constantly surprised when I lose weight following a week of inactivity. I know doing CICO is doing its job, but psychologically I feel like I just pulled a fast one.
Who knows, maybe when you workout you have a little more food? Maybe it’s those amazing muscle gains people talk about? Maybe it’s water retention? Maybe maybe maybe. As long as the trend is going in the right direction say thank you for being weird 2 -

Hey there Amber. I’m right there with you. Emotional eater and tried so hard to get motivated. Lost a lot of weight long ago and gained it all back. My mother passed away a year ago and I swore I would change so that didn’t happen to me. I didn’t change. Marriage falling apart, I didn’t change. Kids might grow up without me. I didn’t change. Honestly not sure what flip switched for me, but hopefully your switch has been flipped and you’ll find yourself making those small changes again, staying consistent and watching your life change for the positive.
I’m half way to goal (309 to 265 / goal is 225). I hate the way I look almost daily. Of course, I also love the progress I’ve made almost daily. Constant struggle, but making my food choices a priority I keep trending down. You can do it!

Hi All,
I'm excited about this challenge - I think it will be very motivating!
At 61 years old I'm guessing I'm the oldest one here. I hate to confirm this, but as I get older yes my metabolism has slowed down.
With a desk job my weight as continued to increase and now it's time to stop. I'd be happy to lose 5 lbs in November. I live in Southern Ontario (Canada) and do belong to a gym - it's time to use it!
My goal is to stay below 1300 calories and to improve my fitness!
