    9/8 Week 9: 173.1
    9/16 Week 10: 171.7
    9/23 Week 11 171.5 well at least I didn't gain....
    9/30 Week 12 Out of the state
    10/7 Week 13 Out of the state
    10/14 Week 14 Out of the state
    10//21 Week 15 Out of the state
    10/28 Week 16 169.6 Down Lost 1.9 pounds in Texas
    11/4 Week 17 172's (unofficially)

    Down Lost 1.9 pounds in Texas, but thats okay. I was working 14 hour days on my feet and gained a ton of muscle, and I didn't count a single calorie, I'm just happy it went down.

    I've been recovering from surgery this week, and I haven't been counting calories, and have had no exercise, and not a lot of moving in general. So no official weigh in but I'm hovering in the 172's.

    There's a good chance I won't make my goal for Christmas, but I'll be happy as long as I get close. At 172 I have 12 pounds to lose and with my track record of steadily (no matter how much I eat or exercise) losing 1 pound a week, I probably won't be able to lose more then 8 pounds. Starting tomorrow I'm back on the calorie counting horse, however exercise probably won't follow until late November....

    I hope everybody is still losing! The goal isn't the most important thing, it's knowing that you tried your hardest to get there.

    Checking in at 209 flat today (down 1.4 from last time I checked in at 210.4! Finally broke through my stall.

    I hear ya Craft. I was 217.4 on 9/1, down to 215, back up to 217.4 by 10/1; then finally down to 210.4 at some point; back up to 212.6; going up and down for two weeks. ARGH!!! Got my new HRM. Now I know how many calories I burn. Turns out I was WAY overestimating exercise calories. 6 days with new toy AND drinking my water . . . BOOM --> back in the winning game of LOSING!!!! Weighing in today at 209 flat. Yes, I am gonna be sexy for Christmas!

    I also joined a challenge (that is competitive) and it is helping me a lot.

    How do you all plan to attack Thanksgiving? I've been thinking and thinking about it. Since we are going to someone else's house. I think I can do it = stay within my calorie goal. At least we won't have left overs around here. It is a potluck. I'm gonna bring a low fat, low sodium soup. I'm gonna skip dessert and workout before I go. What's your plan?

    Checking in at 207.6 lbs today. There remains hope that I'll be sexy for Christmas, but it is a tight schedule at this point. I joined a rather serious (competitive group challenge) this month, so that is helping.

    As much as I hate it, drinking more water does seem to help with the loss as well as with staying within calories.

    Hope you all are doing well.

    I am down to 214.5 so it would be hard pressed for me to be into the 100's by Christmas but even being close will be amazing

    Congrats Craft!!! Great loss!!!

    Weighing in at 205.6 today = down 2 lbs from last week.

    Had an outstanding week exercise wise.

    I've been getting technical and it is working for me! By technical I mean weighing and measuring my food. Getting my water in. And I bought a HRM and have learned that I'm not burning anywhere near MFP estimates. Now I know why I stalled. I was eating back exercise calories that I hadn't earned. I'm back in the losing game again. Feels great to have lost consistently this month so far. Hoping to keep next week and be under 200 for Christmas!

    Hi all, haven't posted on here for ages or what seems like ages.
    Really suffering a blip in my weight. I gained on a holiday only 4lb but now ti's 5lb and I'm struggling to lose. So... today is a new day and I WILL lose some more by xmas. I won't make my goal and have scrapped it to be honest as don't want to be pissed off by xmas. Overall I'll be a lot smaler at xmas and thats all that matters.

    I'd love to lose 7lb before xmas. So.. that is my goal for now. 172lbs.

    Congrats to you guys who lost 2 or more pounds this week, that is really awesome.

    Last week 169.3
    this week 168.9
    Down .4 pounds
    I'm not super happy about that but at least it didn't go up, and part of me is just really happy to be back in the 160"s. This is about where I was when I graduated high school.

    202.4 lbs today

    204.8 lbs last week

    2.4 loss ! ! !

    I am stoked! I keep changing things up and have managed to have two months of consecutive weekly losses. I'm going to achieve my goal of Onderland for Christmas! For the first time, I feel like I know I can do it!

    I also belong to a competive challenge (a biggest loser type with teams). It is helping me stay focused and to try new things for November and December. Such a great time to be on track. I am sooo looking forward to starting the new year in Onderland!
