I think it might just be the four of us, but loved having the support even on weeks that I barely lost!
Tomorrow is my second to last weigh in and I’m not going to make my original goal, but still proud to finish a challenge and be accountable1 -

Hi my name is Jenn and I am back for another round. The last 10 pounds has been rough to get off. I have bounced around all winter in the low 150's or high 140's. It's time to get into the low 140's and stay!
Highest weight: 178
MFP starting weight: 178 July of 2018
Starting weight for challenge: 150.9
March 21: 150.9
March 23: 151.8 no reason for the uptick. Allergy meds may be making me retain some water and just not feeling 100%. Hopefully next week I will hit the 140’s again!
March 30: 151.9 I was way lower yesterday, but I’m guessing it was my dinner from last night. Gotta love that sodium!
April 6: 148.8 great finish to a strong week. Hopefully next week I finish even stronger!
April 13: 149.4 starting our vacation today or last night, lol!
April 20: 151.0 got back from vacation on Thursday. Had a blast and didn’t do to much damage!
April 27: 147.6 did good all week and lost all my vacation water weight.
May 4: 148.2 was lower yesterday but had a couple of beers with dinner and ate crazy late. So trying to do good today
May 11: 146.5 finally had a decent drop this week! So close to 145 which is the top of my maintenance weight. Maybe? Lol
May 18: 147.0
May 25: DNW- was on baca for a week
June 1: 148.7 I’m still trying to get rid of my vacation weight gain. Moving in the right direction though, so I’ll take it.
June 8: 147.1 this decade is a rough one. I’m still struggling to get under 145. 2 more weeks to get there!
June 15: 146.7 still going down! So pleased with this today.

Loss so far in challenge: 9.4 lbs

Although I really wanted to get to 142 for this challenge, pretty happy that I was less than 5 lbs from goal, with a 10 day trip to Italy and a 4 day trip to Nashville this season.
This is my first completed challenge (outside of 10 day challenge) so going to be more realistic with weight goals going forward and shoot for manageable instead of reach weights.2 -

You did an amazing job. It can become easy to minimize our accomplishments when we don't reach out goals, but I think you did amazing. You set a realistic goal, loved your life to the fullest, and though you fell short, you still made amazing strides. Continue to reach! I'm so proud for you that you were able to complete a challenge1 -

Goal for challenge: 11 pounds
Loss so far in challenge: 4.9 pounds
Loss overall: 321 -
Original starting weight (March 2013) - 175.4
Original MFP starting weight (January 2018) - 168.2
March 21, 2019 starting weight - 142.6 (ten-day rolling average 141.6)
Ultimate goal - Maintain around 143 (range between 142 - 148)
I achieved my goal during the Winter challenge, and I've started the difficult job of keeping it off. I'm going to participate in the Spring challenge if y'all don't mind. My new pair of challenges are not gaining back and also not losing much more.
March:
March 28: 141.8 (10-day average 143.2)
March 31: 142.8 (10-day average 143.2)
April:
April 4: 142.6 (10-day average 143.0)
April 28: 144 (10-day average 142.0)
May:
May 5: Should be May 2; I was away from scale since April 28. 144.0 (10-day average 142.1).
May 30: 144.0 (10-day average 144.8)
June:
June 6: 145.4 (10-day average 146.0)
June 11: 144.0 (10-day average 145.4)
June 20: On the river!
June 21: On the way home from the river! Scale weight June 22 was 143.2.
Weight lost this week: I think I finally hit a stopping point and am losing again back towards my goal! Down 1.4 pounds by scale and a half pound by ten-day average.
June Goal: Keep my ten-day average to weigh at or below 143 (starting March 1 at 144.9)
June Actual: I started to creep up and got to the top of my maintenance range, but I think that's stopped. I can't believe I lost weight on the river trip.
Challenge Weight loss goal: Maintain between 142 - 148 from March 21 through June 20
Actual Weight loss for the challenge: Scale weight is 0.6 pounds above the start of the challenge. I interpolated weights during my 12 days away, and based on that, my 10-day average is near the bottom of my maintenance range.
Spring ended at 08:54 Pacific Daylight Time on June 21. I have reached my weight loss goal and am maintaining.
