I’ve lost over 60lbs. I have about 50 more I’d like to lose. Since I’m a bit late to the game (April...) I think this group may really fit/help me!
Thanks!
You just post your weight each week, I find it easiest to keep my latest post in notepad and just update and copy/paste that each week.1 -
Hi All, its been a while and I really haven't achieved in any challenges on here. I pretty much lose any motivation and come to a stand still.
I currently weigh 77 kg OR 169 lb
and 5'2" so really could do with some positive thoughts and like minded people 
Although I don't feel that I need to lose 52lb's , I think 26 lb would be ideal.
So I hereby declare.....
Challenge Accepted
Good Luck everyone
Hi! I currently weigh 171.8 and am 5ft 2 (actually 5ft 1.5 but shhh, don't tell anyone!) My goal is about 140, so we're pretty similar. Good luck, you can do this!

This week's successes: I disappeared from the challenge for a few weeks as I had eye surgery at the end of March. I am now 9 days post-op and my eye is getting better every day. I'm so glad I got it done!
This week's challenges: Not allowed to exercise for 4 weeks after the surgery.
I'm only allowed to walk for now. 19 days to go! (And counting every damn second!)

This week's challenges: A lot of personal stress this week and I have strayed a bit off diet and not kept to my exercise program. A bit disorganised and lower motivation.
Next week's goal: To pull my head together so I can increase motivation and get better with eating and exercise.2 -

The next 2 weeks we will be traveling and vacationing with kids and grands. Looking forward to taking them in their first cruise. Not sure how often I will be able to squeeze in a run and I always enjoy the great foods.
While doing laundry this week I came across a pair of my old shorts. Just the thing I needed to remind me of how far I've come. Bottom pair is size 14, top pair is my current size 4. Working towards those last few pounds are so worth it.

Victory!!!🏆 I saw the surgeon yesterday for my post-op assessment and he says I CAN exercise! Any kind of exercise is fine, as long as I don't allow any sweat to get in my eye! 😭6 -
