    I think you can do it! Will you be walking around much? Just don't go Nutso with food and I think you can hit that 205 goal! Don't think you can't but try and if you don't hit it at least you tried!!

    Where are you going for your trip?

    Thanks. I am definitely still going to try and lose weight because I am HIGHLY motivated to win that Wii!!

    I am going to Phoenix for a week.

    HI all

    I'm still here - :wink: stands on a box and waves across the atlantic :wink: - but I've been busy this week and reading rather than posting.

    I've kept to my calories every day but lost :grumble: zero:grumble:

    Never mind I shan't give up

    Good weekend everyone
    Love from Flois

    Hey SB, why are your calories down by 99? Do you manually change your goal once you lose a certain amount ? I thought it must take account of that as it has my weight when I enter it in check-in? I'm still learning.

    Proudmama - you can do it. Wii's are fun :-) How are you going to win one?

    Well i didn't lose any this week:grumble: and I gained 1/2 a lb last week so Friday I totally went off on a tail spin:noway: Had horrible calories (actually scared to go log it in):laugh:

    I am back today to hopefully lose more this coming week.

    I got a new pedometer which I :heart: ! It was recommended by Jillian and now I can challenge myself to do 10000 steps a day (which I did do Friday so maybe the day wasn't as horrible as I think it was!). I also got some new work out tapes so I am excited to change up my routine.

    Amann, I believe my original goal was to lose 8 lbs by our 4 week mark. Do you have my start weight with the over 200 club? I am not sure what that was, but I can go back and look if you need me to. Don't think I will make it, but that's ok. I am going to keep at it!

    WTG Everyone!:flowerforyou: Keep up the great work!:drinker:

    Just weighing in for yesterday. I lost about .6 lbs for week 3, so my current weight is now 200.4. Slowly, but surely we're making progress!

    I did great all last week. I was so proud of myself. Then this weekend all I did was lounge on the couch and watch movies with my son who was sick. I'd have to admit it was a really nice break:wink: I am ready to get back on the horse and get my cardio in again. Hopefully the little one will be feeling better this week. So anyways. My current weight was 223 my goal for week 4 is to lose 2 lbs and be 221. Good luck to everyone this week.

    My starting weight on 1/5/09 was 232.5. I have not been able to keep up with postings here for about a week and it shows with my not being as motivated to stay on track. Weigh in on Friday was 227.5. I am getting back on track today. :happy:

    I don't know what goal to shoot for other than getting back on track...eating right, watching what I eat - by making good choices and exercising like I did back in January where I saw the pounds coming off each week, even if little by litte.

    So, are we going to another area to continue? Not sure what you call these things exactly.

    :blushing:

    Hope you had a great time in SF.:smile:

    Hi everyone, I am new to this group ( I hope you don't mind me joining)! I know I was 299 in mid January, but I didn't really start to attack this weight problem till February 1st, I weighed in at 293. I am now sitting at 275 and am gung ho to get the rest of it off. My ultimate goal is 162 which for my height and frame will be a good weight ( I think...never been that small). It looks like weigh in here is Friday? I have been doing Sunday...but will do Friday as well. So, my weight Friday was 276, now as for the exercise...I've done 3.3 miles (60 min on the treadmill) Sunday and 3.42 miles (60 min on the treadmill) Monday. Looks like you report your calories in and stuff too...do you just do that Friday? I am happy to find a group of motivated people to share this with. Support is key through this battle of the bulge.

    Nice to meet you all...
    Bobbi
