    Week 1
    Tuesday Weigh In
    Previous: 151
    Current: 150.4
    I'm amazed at the inches I've lost in the last few weeks though. Definitely NOT represented in the number of pounds lost, but at least the scales are moving down again.

    Fantastic, as you get lower I think you find it is less about the scales. I'm sitting on the cheer squad as I have found over the past month or so I've put on a couple big pounds, but the inches are still coming down, it feels strange, but it reminds us it's about fat loss, not weight loss

    Exactly. I’m really pretty comfortable here. But I’d like to get back down to 145. But, my measurements are smaller now than they were when I was at 145 in the fall. Weird, I know. But I feel pretty good right now.

    Do you think it’s from IF?

    Yes, Jen. I do think it’s from IF. I’m loving IF right now.

    @47Angie Welcome to Slimpossibles, where slim (and healthy) really IS possible! I am so glad you found us, and I know you coming along on this journey with @19shmoo69 is going to be such a joy for him. It's always great to do something like this with someone at home. It just makes everything easier, it seems to me. Good luck to you, and we are so glad you are coming along for the journey. Let us know if there are any questions we can answer for you. Just one thought I have: do you drink as much coffee as your husband? LOL

    Good Morning Everyone...

    After a bit of discussion, the moderators are going to be changing it up a bit for the remaining month of May.

    We are going to be eliminating the Moderators Challenge as it stands now. Instead, we are going to try introducing a Moderators Topic of the Week. This will be spearheaded by Greg and I welcome any feedback about the change.

    The Moderators Topic of the Week will be an informative (and interactive) discussion on things like nutrition, dieting, fitness, etc. and will be designed to provide more "support" to the challengers in the group.

    The weekly "Team Challenge" will continue as it has right along and will continue to rotate to a different team each week. I remind the team captains that the weekly challenges do not need to be elaborate, sometimes basic is just as good if not better.

    Thanks
    Steve

    In. Bit of a slump at the moment. We head into winter here so maybe some low vitamin D levels plus loads of life stress.
    I did manage to do two 20 min runs this week though, better than nothing.
    I will do a weights session tomorrow so I reach my minim target for exercise this week. I try for 3 gym sessions each week .
    So that will be the third and then one day where I walked a fair bit . The other days I’m sedentary due to my study.

    Whatever you do is a step in the right direction; the main part of losing weight is in the kitchen, exercises is only a small part of it, but you are already lapping most people, way to go, and keep it up
