    I hate to leave you ladies but I must. Because, I am also PREGNANT!!!!!! So, I cannot be "trying" to lose weight now. I will continue to try to stay active during this pregnancy and hopefully I won't gain 55 pounds again! LOL. I will see you ladies again next June when I start losing the baby weight all over again! :blushing:

    Congratulations!

    Me and hubby are going to start trying in New Year (hence why I want to lose as much weight as I can now!) as much as I'd love it to be sooner, I really don't want to be the third one haha! :happy:

    I can't believe it's weigh in tomorrow! Haven't had the best of weeks - exercise has almost completely disappeared and I've been over my calories a few times - but the scale is still telling me I'm going down so I hope it doesn't completely jump up and bit me on the bum tomorrow! :frown:

    Good luck to everyone else! :happy:

    HAPPY THURSDAY EVERYONE!!! :happy:

    I had a :noway: moment this morning..... I got on the scales and they showed me 11st 3.5lbs (157.5lbs)!!!! I had to get off and on again 3 times in different locations around my bathroom before I would believe it! -2lbs from last week and the lowest I've been in 2011! Only 3lbs more until I am in the 'Healthy' BMI limit and no longer consider 'Overweight'! :drinker:

    Hope everyone elses weigh-in's were as successful! :bigsmile:

    Yay, that's great!! Congrats!!

    I'm up half a pound from last week, but considering Thanksgiving was this past weekend, I think that's pretty good!! Good luck to everyone with your weigh-in, maybe we can get everyone to input their weight this week!!

    Congrats Mummyv! And congrats to everyone that lost! And to those that didin't, tomorrow is a new day :smile: I'm the same. This seems to be a game my body is playing with me, I get down a few months and then I'm stuck there for a week or two. And since the weather is super sucky in Chicago my night time walks have been cut out :sad: But that just means time to get inside to the gym! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    I'm here I'm here! Don't worry, you won't ever lose me!

    Sorry for not finishing last week's weigh in results, I just didn't really know what to do. My school work has been out of control lately so I haven't had much extra time to spend re-working our spreadsheet. And to be honest, I just can't put the effort into completely redoing it. It took too long to begin with! I wish there was a simple way of resolving this. Anyone have any ideas? I give you all permission to try to figure out how to use the equations in the spreadsheet so we can still have our competition.

    As for me, I couldn't log this morning because I was away from my normal scale. But I don't expect to lose any. It seems my goals have changed for now. I've been working with my trainer to get stronger and I think I need to focus on one goal at a time. With that said, if I maintain my weight like I have been, I may actually be losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time. I have also been trying to 'make peace with food,' as I have struggled with obsessive feelings and emotions revolving around food and dieting. I've definitely made progress in this area, partly due to not logging my food and calories burned. Overall, I feel like I've had many more non scale victories since we began this challenge. And I'm okay with that! Unfortunately, this doesn't help my team, but I hope you girls understand the importance of making changes in other areas of life before taking care of the physical aspects, otherwise everything falls to pieces!

    I still check in here everyday to see how everyone is doing and the progress you all have made. It's wonderful and so inspiring! I wish we had some way of tracking our non scale victories because I think it would help keep people motivated even more!

    Congrats to everyone who lost this week! I'll input my weight tomorrow morning!

    YAY I WAS STARTING TO WORRY! LOL......... OKAY SO I THINK WE NEED TO MAKE A CONFIRMED LIST OF WHO IS NO LONGER IN THE CHALLENGE AND REPLACE THEM SINCE I HAVE NO IDEA ON HOW TO REFIGURE THEM, SO IF WE REPLACE THEM AND SEND YOU THEIR STATS ROSS CAN YOU INPUT THEM THE WAY YOU HAVE BEEN DOING WITH THE REST!?!? OR....... IF WE HAVE LOST ENOUGH PEOPLE TO MAKE THE TEAMS EVEN AGAIN WE CAN JUST DROP THE GROUPS DOWN A FEW MEMBERS AND SHIFT SOMEONE FROM ONE TEAM TO ANOTHER IF WE HAVE LOST MORE THAN 1 FROM A SPECIFIC GROUP. AND I HEAR YOU ON THE NSV'S ROSS, MAYBE USE THIS AREA TO REPORT NSV'S???

    YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY! Glad you're back Ross and I hope your work isn't toooooooo stressful! :happy:

    I am absolutely rubbish with anything technological/mathmatical etc so I am definitely out of the running for helping with the spreadsheet I'm afraid. :frown:

    This group is an AWESOME place to discuss NSV's :drinker: Unfortunately I don't ahve any to report at the moment! Hee hee :laugh:

    Happy Friday everyone and I hope you all have a good weekend! :flowerforyou:

    First & foremost, I'm glad you're back, Ross! Starting to worry, but YAY!!

    If there's a way to even out the teams, I think that would be the best solution instead of adding more people.. But that's if everyone agrees. If there are ppl who want to join the challenge, then cool! The only thing is, they need to commit. I'm not saying anything about those who have left due to whatever reasons, but it just sucks that we're always looking for more ppl to replace them. Esp since we're pretty much half-way through the challenge.

    Anyway, congrats to everyone who lost!! To those who gained or didn't lose, keep your head up! We're here to keep each other accountable :D

    <3 ya ladies!
