Week 5: So, how did everyone do this week? Did you complete the challenge?

Also, everyone needs to either post their weight to this thread TODAY, or send it to me in a message. Even if you weighed in earlier this week, post the number again to this thread. I need to know who our active participants are, and who we've lost along the way.

The Challenge for Week 5 is to exercise at least 3 days this week, AND stay within your calorie goal each day!

There are only 2 weeks left until Labor Day...let's make it happen! :bigsmile:

    This was my first week back on Weight Watchers and I had a great week: lost 4.8 lbs, did cardio 6 days, and lifted weights twice. It's nice to be moving in the right direction again!

    I can still reach my goal for the challenge, but I'm really going to have to work for it!

    Woohoo...back in the loop for the week. I have no earthly idea how I could miss a whole week of posts when I'm on this site EVERY day.

    Anyway, I got some kind of exercise everyday, except Tuesday, although I haven't been to the gym in 3 days...will remedy that today! I was also under calories everyday...so, without knowing what it was, I completed the challenge :-)

    This morning's weight was 322.4, which is down 2.6lbs since last Monday...continuously in the right direction!:drinker:

    Oh yeah, did I mention that I will hit goal in less than 3lbs, which means HOPEFULLY in less than a week...super-excited!

    No change in weight from last week, but considering I ate everything in sight, I consider this a victory.

    Great news. I am hoping that we ALL can reach our challenge goals in the next 2 weeks.

    Hey! I completed the exercise challenge! :)

    And a weight loss of 1.2 pounds. Not suprising though since all the eating out I did with my family. Lots of sodium!

    Starting my new workouts today since I just got back to school last night, first day of class here I come! :)

    Good luck on your first class day. My first computer clas went well with 23 students bright and early on a Monday morning. We will see what happens bright and early on Wednesday.

    No change in weight for me this week...but then again, I ate probably way too many things that I shouldn't have.

    I went up 2 lbs., but I'm pretty sure it is water weight. I know I can lose it this week!

    I completely forgot to weigh in this morning, too much going on with first day of school. Hopefully I didn't gain over the weekend. I didn't track to well at all! Back at it today.

    Here are the results this week:

    PianoRaven...........2.71%
    scooterboy2003.....1.10%
    k2quiere.................0.8%
    Szczepj...................0.65%
    martinah4................0%
    imarunner8908........0%
    Julijulz.....................0%
    Tjandjmkahrs.........+1.07%


    Hmm...we seem to be dropping off a little. It's ok (accepted, expected) to have weeks where we stay the same or even gain some, but we had NINE members who didn't even check-in! Remember, we can't encourage and support you if you don't talk to us.

    We lost a total of 11 lbs this week. Remember, we only have 2 weeks left! Make them count!

    These are the members who didn't weigh in. I've tried to contact them with no response. Maybe someone else can drop them a note of encouragement?

    DoctorWhoFan and arkenny haven't weighed in for two weeks in a row, so I can only assume that they have quit. :frown:

    Oops!!! Sorry!!! Yes, jagrib0112 is my former name! I'm like Prince or PDiddy or one of those other fools that changed their names just to confuse us all. :-)

    Thanks, Bobbie!
