in Motivation and Support
This challenge is to give us a target, motivate, encourage and celebrate our achievements on our journey to health. Originally started by tcasmey (who can resume leadership when she returns to MFP), this is an open group to all.

Here's how it works:
1. Sign on that you are participating in the challenge, give your stats, weigh in dates. If you post - you are IN!!
2. Come back on each weigh in date and let us know how you are doing. Even if it is not a positive week, let us know so we can encourage you.
3. If the post fills up, go to the last post and it will have a link to the automatic continuation.
4. Let us know one of the following: What did you learn about yourself, what is your next goal and/or what was your best NSV (non scale victory).

Here's the pattern:
SW (start weight, optional)
CW (current weight)
GW (goal weight for the month of May
UTG: (Ultimate goal weight)

See you in June!

    I'm in again for this month but I am setting my goal to a 3lbs loss for the month as I have recently changed my goal to a .5lbs loss a week. I was starting to feel hungry all the time even when I was eating my exercise calories so I thought it was time to up the calorie intake and aim for a lower weekly loss.

    Weight at start of challenge (6/1): 146
    CW: 146
    GW: 143

    (6/6) :
    (6/13):
    (6/20):

    SW: 172
    CW: 164 (It was 162, but I gained some weight back ><)
    GW: 140
    UTG: 115-120

    I am so in. I don't know why it's been such a struggle getting out of the 160s, especially since I'm too short for the weight (I'm 5'3"). This is just what I need to keep me motivated. Weigh in is on Saturday.
