    Week 4 results:

    Last week's weight: 187.8
    Current weight: 185.8
    Goal weight by Memorial Day: 175
    Goal weight loss a week: 1.5 lbs
    Pounds lost this week: 2.0
    Pounds lost since beginning of challenge: 7.4

    I won't be weighing myself for a few weeks because I am going on vacation! If I come back roughly the same weight that I left, I will be happy. If I lose, even better!

    I only count 10 more weeks until Memorial Day, though - am I missing something?

    Good job, everyone! :happy:

    Just wanted to bump this topic ..... :tongue:

    How's everyone doing with this challenge?? Don't give up!! There's still 9 weeks left (and a couple days)!! A lot can happen in 9 weeks ...... Spring is here so it should be warmer to be able to get outside and take a walk, burn some calories playing with the kids outside, go for a bike ride, etc. etc.

    Keep going ..... and going ..... and going ...... and going ...... :smile:

    Don't give up ..... we're all in this together!! :wink:

    :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Have a blessed Easter!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Starting weight on 2/23 172 pounds
    Current weight 165
    Total weight loss is 7 pounds

    I lost 4 pounds the first week, 4 pounds the second week and I've gained a pound and have stayed there for two weeks now.
    My goal is 150 by Memorial Day and 140 by July.
    What I'm really motivated by is the inch and a half I lost around the middle (jeans feel so much better!)
    Now that Easter is over and the candy has been carefully hidden away I think I can get back into my routine (until the next food filled holiday :noway: )
    Good luck all!

    I was sick this weekend lost a lot of weight (8 pounds) 8 pounds of water weight!?

    I will probably weigh myself tomorrow morning after a day of feeling better. Hopefully it did not all come back, but sources tell me that it will. :sad:

    I can take advantage and just eat well and hopefully it will not come all back.

    But I am still working on my goal. if I can loose 12 pounds in 6 weeks, I'll be so freakin happy. I'm going to try to get the weight off the first of May so I can prepare and buy clothing for Memorial Day!

    Wrong way.:blushing:
    Todays weight 184
    Last weigh in 179
    Challenge start weight 182 (Jan 1st weight 186)
    Goal weight by Memorial 172 (Goal weight by my birthday in October 150!)

    Pounds lost this week: pounds gained :sad:
    Pounds lost since starting challenge: 3, but then I put them all back on, and then some.


    I was on vacation for 9 days, and as if it's not hard enough to stay on track while away from home, I was so sick with a miserable cough/cold that wiped away all of my energy! Instead of my usual 60-90 minutes of tough cardio everyday, I only did 30 minutes walks each day. And ate a less than ideal diet.
    I know I didn't try hard enough to eat good food, and now I'm going to pay for it. But I'm back on track and going to keep trying to reach my goal weight, even it it takes me a year!
