First week weigh in, 198 lbs, previous 200 lbs, did get the unexpected two lb weight loss. Happy about the 2 lbs after a Friday night out. I guess Saturday and Sunday of healthy eating offset the Friday night out. Good luck to all in the challenge and hope all reach their goal.0

At average 1 pound a day , bouncing back up then back down.. yoyo'ing
not counting the rest of this month, but starting at March 1 I think there is about 87 days to Memorial day. So I need about 36 pounds to reach my goal..
It seems so possible, yet it does not.0 -

I'm in!
I only started MFP on Saturday, so I have a few more days until my first weigh-in. But, my starting weight on Saturday was 172 - here's hoping for a few pounds less on Saturday!
And I would love to get to the gym more often, but my work and kids.... you know. So, here's my alternate plan: cardio 5 times a week, gym 2 days a week for weights. I can do the cardio at home and some strength training at home as well ( I hate push-ups and sit-ups! But they work!)
Good luck everyone!0 -
My Thursday Weigh-In:
Last Weeks Weight: 207
Current weight: 205
Goal weight: 180 (as of Memorial Day anyway)
Goal weight loss per week: Hopefully 2 lbs a week
Pounds lost this week: 2
Pounds lost total: 4 for this challenge (65 total since September 4)
I was only able to get to the gym once this week...but I did go out dancing Saturday night, which we all know is great cardio!
Man, I am so close to being under 200!! When I started my new lifestyle back in September at 270 lbs, it seemed like an impossible goal and now here I am, not only nearing that goal but also feeling confident I can and WILL reach my ultimate goal of 135!0 -
