SW for Oct -169
CW as 10/21-166.4
1.5 to go, lets hope I didn't gain from bad food on Thursday0 -

Down 5. Got another week left so maybe another one ^^0 -
Ok weigh in for today....
SW 114
CW....111!
3lbs in 4 weeks! I am sooooooooooooooo happy! I am not sure if I will lose the two lbs left for this challenge but I am so happy to have lost the 3 lbs that I did. I can see more definition in my arms and really in my legs (thighs). I feel more motivated to workout because man I feel great! And I am actually considering started the beginner's running program that I did last March but stopped in May. Brought my running shoes and workout clothes to work to maybe do a walk/jog interval workout during lunch.
As an aside....my boyfriend's father offered me chocolate ice cream last night after dinner and I decided to indulge. He gave me two scoops and to my own suprise I only ate one! I never, NEVER used to be able to resist chocolate ice cream, but I just looked at the other scoop and didn't feel that I wanted it. The one scoop for me last night was satisfying enough. Sorry to blab but I thought that was a breakthrough for me!
Everyone who has participated in this challenge looks great! I am so happy to be a part of this group. This really is a great moivation and great support. Wishing the best to everyone to continue on for the next week!0 -

Congratulations! Cake is my weakness, so I totally understand how hard it is to say "no" - but when you don't have to tell yourself no because you just don't want it?! BEST FEELING EVER! Keep up the good work!0 -

3lbs! I don't know if I'll get the last two in before the 31st, but to be honest I never thought I'd get down this much! When I started MFP, my GW was 145, so this challenge helped me get there - finally!0 -

Congrats hun!! Any loss is worth celebrating. Even if you don't reach the 5 for this challenge, you are still victorious!!! :drinker: Congrats on meeting your initial goal weight. New goal now??? Keep up the great work!!0 -
Sooooo.... my weigh in for today is..... 148.4 ---- 0.4 up from last week :ohwell:
Kinda had a feeling this would happen because of how my week started but I'm glad that it's ONLY 0.4. I highly doubt I will be at my goal of 145 by Halloween so I'm going to set a new goal of 147 -- which requires a loss of 1.4. I think I can do that. 3.4 pounds by then is not gonna happen!!

I guess weddings are bad for you
Congratulations on your wedding! What a beautiful thing!! Don't sweat the gain. You will get it back off in no time.
yeah, I find it hard to believe I ate 27000 calories in one week, so I thought it was sodium or something but it's still not down, so I guess I did, or something.
Thanks for the congrats, we had a good time
