    Opps, I posted on the old post for my weigh in. Okay, my weight on Thursday was 204. I'll weigh again Thursday morning.

    Good luck everyone :)

    Would love to join your challenge. If I could lose 20lbs by Thanksgiving I would be one happy cat! My starting weight is 186.5. I have never told anyone that because I'm so ashamed of it. Just seeing that makes me just wanna cry.

    Don't cry--we all start somewhere and I started (and still am) higher than you :)

    I did okay last week, 2 lbs lost which brings me to 15 total since I started 9/19. Hanging in there, adding cardio to my plan this week. Thinking of doing couch to 5k . . .

    how is everyone else doing?

    I'm down 2.9 since we started. Yay! I suspect that number might be a little off due to water weight. We'll see next week. :)

    191lbs.. 2.6lbs since last week.. 3.6 total so far! Sorry for the late post. Thursday was a hellish day and then for some reason on Friday and Saturday I thought I'd already posted. Anyways, hope it's going well for everyone!!!

    I was out of town at a conference so I am just getting around to my post for last week...it looks like everyone is hanging tough!! I had a bad week for food (traveling out of state) and it shows. I am really puffy though so I think it is a lot of water retention. It is also that TOM thing so maybe next week will be better!

    9/29: 201.4
    10/6: 201.8
    10/13: 203.2 ;-(

    Cheers!

    Wll my weigh in is: 164. It went in the wrong direction. But at least Im not sitting on the sofa. I think I need to drink more water and get to the gym more. Its been hard since my son got hurt in a football game. Lots of Dr. appoinments, But I have been up to the gym 2 times a week. My goal is to get there more like 4 times a week.. I know theres no ecuses. But its hard when theres so much going on.

    Hello everyone,

    I am new to this site and I am trying to find a group to join to loose some weight. I did a 60 day challenge on another site and it was very good, but the members weren't too active.
    Would it be possible to join your group?

    No real change this week...but I am now home for a while, so I hope to get back into a routine. Traveling is sooooo hard on a diet! I have only spent 4 of the last 14 nights in my own bed!! Hope everyone else is keeping at it!!!

    I lost a pound last week too. had a rough weekend though, with family in from out of town, didn't eat as well as I should have. Back on the wagon and hoping for better this week :)

    good luck all!

    Blah. Somehow the scale thinks I gained 4 lbs. I think it had something to do with the mei fun comfort Chinese food that I had last night for dinner and the fact that I hadn't been drinking enough water this week. I also hadn't hit the gym.

    Down 6 lbs, including the 4 lbs that somehow crept back in there last week. Took off from the gym last week. Am planning on going back this week. Let's see where that lands me. :)
