    Sept 4- 175.8
    Sept 9 - 170.8 (yes it looks like I already lost 5, but I was up 8.... lol)
    Sept 16 - 176.4
    Sept 23 - 172.8
    Sept 30 -


    Ayyy ay ayyyy. I have been VERY Up and down this month. While I wanted to lose more than the 5 pounds this month because I gained so much, but I am thinking that at this point i'd be lucky to just lose the 5, I have to accept that the weight gain wasnt just a fluke. I have to just keep going and not get upset.

    Good luck you you all! Still have one more week til the final weigh in if you havent made your goals yet! Don't give up!

    Sometimes our bodies just don't get the message that we're trying to lose! stupid bodies! You'll get back on track with the losing in time and be at your goal before you know it :)

    Ugh! My baby turns 3 in December :( It's so sad how fast time flies by, but at least we're doing something worthy while it's flying!

    I still can't get off of this yo-yo! Maybe I'll see something good next week. I'm running a friend the final 6.2 miles of her marathon tomorrow. Last night I started planting 259 flower bulbs & I got the majority of them in the ground. I have about 40 left to plant this morning, so I'm out to do that now before my nephew's soccer game at 9am. :flowerforyou: I can't wait till spring! It will look beautiful!

    Have a wonderful Saturday everyone!

    Holding at 215 lbs (down from 217.4 at the beginning of this month). I have a fancy scale though and I'm pleased that fat % is down and muscle % is up.

    from 187.5 for the past 3 weeks to 184! Thanks to Poseidon for the suggestion to change my exercise program. Also am keeping cals consumed at 1200, without eating back what I exercised. 3.5 lbs lost this week! One more, and I've met this challenge!

    9/01 - 176
    9/08 - 175
    9/16 - 175
    9/25 - 178 - that's not good. What am I doing wrong? I think I need to exercise more. I don't track it most of the time, so I don't know what I am doing. I need to start tracking, so I know what I am doing.

    Man! I'm seeing a pattern in myself. When it's my TOM, I have ZERO ability to control myself on the weekends. I always tell myself how unworth it it is, but I do it all over again... mainly with sweet stuff.

    I'm up seven lbs this morning. I know I have a lot of water weight... the sodium from all the food PLUS just being bloated and crampy, so I'm hoping by the end of the week, I can get that off and pull off a little bit of a loss.

    Friday is my weigh in! 4 days to get it done! Wish me luck!
