Down another pound, which means that I've reached my goal... In 2 months I've lost a total of 16 pounds!!! I'll finish posting later; I have to take my girls to a doctor's appointment...0

Down 3 lbs from 192 to189! I am so excited. I am not longer a 190. Glad everyone is having a good week so far!0

Okay... I'm baaaa-aaack!!! Both my kids are sick, so it's been kinda crazy... I managed to get a weight-lifting workout in this morning before everyone was awake, though. And last night at volleyball I burned 1142 calories!!!
I updated some photos, as promised. The light blue shirt photo is at three weeks, the dark blue shirt is at 8 weeks. Hopefully you all can see a difference!!!0 -

OMG meeee tooo! I was like did we get a new member?! :laugh: Resa - You look BEATUIFUL!
Christine - you are AMAZING :flowerforyou: I can't wait til I lose that much!0 -
Thanks, guys!!! I think you all are amazing, and I appreciate all the nice comments. When I looked back at the pics, I was really surprised! I hate pictures, and have hidden from them forever. I think now that I've had some progress, I'll start doing it more often!!!
Christine, you are awesome!!! I knew you'd kick butt this week!!! Your hubby is going to be blown away!!!
Everyone's doing such a great job, and I'm so proud of our group!!! I've seen other groups start to peter out after a couple of weeks, but we have been going strong for 2 whole months!!! I would really love to add up all of our weight loss, and see how much we've lost together in the last 8 weeks... The numbers would be HUGE!!!0 -
down a pound sorry it took so long to report it. wishing for bigger bumbers i know i shouldnt but i thought i would be a little further in with the weight loss now that i am finishing my second month but slow and steady (just hope i make my june 1 goal we shall see) where is everyone?0

Awww... Thanks, Dave!!!:blushing:0

Ok so I saw Resa's post and did some investigating and the grand total so far is..................................
123 pounds in 2 months from everybody. You do of course realize that's a person. We just lost my other sister (petite little thing you just wanna punch her:laugh: ).
I agree your new pics are great!
BTW -- In times gone by the comments have been made that we were dwindling down and only a few people were posting. Well after going back to get everyone's weights, it's been that way for quite some time now and I think we'll be fine:bigsmile: . Since like week 2, I think we'll still be here for the long haul.:laugh:0 -
I maintained this week.0

Kacee-Oh fearless leader, what would we do without you?! We need to send you a cape, because after taking care of kids, hubby, cows, calves, and everything in-between, I can't BELIEVE you found the time to figure out our weight-loss!!! When do you sleep?!!:drinker:
123 pounds is a HUGE number!!! I wonder if that's including Livi's weight loss, too? Where's our Mister Sister?!!! I want to know how he's been with his contest at work.
I have volleyball tonight, and am doing a weight lifting workout for P90X. I have been hemming and hawing about doing couch to 5K, and my Beach Body coach has helped me work out a schedule so I can do it... I've even bought an expensive, nice pair of running shoes so there's no backing out now!!!0 -
are you serious 123 pounds? :noway: how many people did you add up? and how many are still part of our group (my mother is she just comes on once a week to post cause lifes gotten a bit busy) but i seem to see a few consistent posters so curious how many of us our left.
123 thats insane and incredible :flowerforyou: go us
slow and steady remember0 -
I am proud of my daughter :smooched: :bigsmile: and I want to thank all of you for being there :flowerforyou: .
I lost nothing this week.
I know I should be happy that I haven't gained but it's not easy for me to see that dial on the scale not budging at all. :grumble: I'm really being good, none of my bad habits have resurfaced yet, no bad food snacking, eating good protein, little if any cheese, except for cottage cheese.
I have been eating three healthy meals a day and excercising too, cardio and weight training. The :devil: in me is whispering to cut back on the carbs, even though they are all whole grain. I've been drinking lots too. I'm wondering if I just can't handle 1,200 calories. I'm wondering what the heck is going on here?:sad:
Ri, this takes slow and steady to a whole 'nother dimension..LOL
As for all...123 lbs is huge..I'm glad everyone is doing so well, and at least I haven't gained anything..I hope next week things are different for me. Thanks y'all0 -
AHEM. ATTENTION PLEASE. THE PLATEAU IS OVER!!!!!!!!!
Two pounds gone!!!!! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
omg it feels so good to see a different number on that scale.
it took a month but I broke that $%^&* plateau!!!!0 -
Congrats! Plateau's can be very hard to get through. Lots of people give up but you stayed strong and made it.AHEM. ATTENTION PLEASE. THE PLATEAU IS OVER!!!!!!!!!

I can't weigh in yet this week. Our friendly competition at work is over and so there is no more scale here - I need to go buy a new one! But... I can say that my jeans fit better (put them on yesterday and was pleasantly surprised!). I'll post my weight loss (how's that for optimism) as soon as I go out and buy a scale!
Congrats on everyone's weight loss and maintaining!

Don't lose heart!!! I know that we will continue to do well, and that includes you!!! Maybe you're not eating enough calories... Try adding in a snack or two, and see if that helps...0 -
Lucky-You're doing great!!! I'm glad the weight loss has started again for you, and I hope your stress level has gotten better, too!!!0

Oopps, double post...0

Great job everyone this wk!
123 lbs is a huge accomplishment in only a few months :drinker:
I can only imagine what those number will be like in a few more :happy: Keep up the good work! :flowerforyou:0 -
So now with Lucky's the total is 125!!!!
To answer the question, I just took all the posts and added them together. Some people started the site before the group, so I just began counting when the group started.
Resa -- when you said I juggle kids, house, hubby and animals, let's just clarify that. I'm not nearly the super-woman you make it sound. Kids is only one, and she takes good naps.:laugh: So we get quite a bit of work done during those times, and if necessary the neighbor sits for a while. Sometimes she comes with us to check cows, she likes car rides anyway. House? Well I'll admit, I haven't been up on things like I was, the dishes might have to sit for a day or 2 (no dishwasher), but we're using mostly paper plates anyway. The laundry is a grab and go kind of thing. I have a few baskets that need to be folded, but let's face it, I've always hated that. :laugh: Hubby? whatever. :laugh: :laugh: And well, we know the story on the animals.
The next few days will be busy. We haven't been able to tag calves in a few days (can't in cold weather cuz it messes up their ears, hurts, and doesn't heal right) so now we have something like 30 to do all at once!:noway:
I haven't been able to make myself make time to exercise, so I try to get all the physical activity I can in throughout the day. Today I helped wrestle a 500+ lbs. tractor tire back on:grumble: . Then I loaded 50 lbs. mineral onto the truck and helped unload 250 lbs. feeder tubs. I try to make an effort and jog to gates instead of walk , or jog to the barn instead of taking the 4 wheeler. I feel like it's enough to at least maintain, so far it's worked, I guess we'll see.
Jen -- the friendly competition at work, how did you do in it?0 -
I am 147.5 this week.. that is down 1.5 from last..0

Mister Sister was looking for us!!! We need to keep on bumping this thread up so he can find us!!!0
