    My regular weigh-in day is tomorrow, but I weighed in today to register on the last day of the month - and I had a loss! So happy! It's been a very slow month.

    SW - 234.5
    CW - 232.5
    GW - 230.0
    UTG - 130!!!

    5/01 - 234.5
    5/07 - 233.8
    5/14 - 233.8
    5/21 - 233.3
    5/28 - 233.3
    5/31 - 232.5 - lost 2 pounds this month

    Although I didn't hit my mini-goal, I at least moved the scale down a little!

    CW: 158 lbs
    GW : 153 lbs
    UTG: 145 lbs

    5/1: 158
    5/4: 157.8 (-0.2)
    5/11: 158.8 (+0.8)
    5/18: 156.8 (-1.2)
    5/25: 155.8 (-2.2)
    5/31: 155.4 (-2.6)

    At least I didn't gain this month. That's my NSV.
  • Here's my stats! Lets get 'er done!


    SW: 318.5 (3/2/12)
    CW: 299.6 (5/3/12)
    GW: 292.0 by last day of May
    UGW: 180


    Well my favorite scale broke so I have to use my scale that only measures in .5 incriments and gives about a 2-3 pound bigger numbers. All well, more incentive to work harder! My last weigh in on the broken scale was on 5/27 at 291.6 pounds.

    This morning the other scale said 294.5. Since I have to use this scale now thats the number I'm going to use, I guess! See some of you in the June challenge.

    SW: 160lbs
    CW: 153lbs (however it might be a lot of water weight from bad food choices/alcohol on the weekend, before hand was flucuating around 150lbs)
    GW: 145 lbs
    UTG: 133lbs

    I didn't get to 145 but weighed in at 147 the other day, so six pounds is still awesome!

    Update:

    SW 216.5
    CW 186.2
    GW 181
    UGW ??? Originally was 172, but I'm re-evaluating this

    5/1/2012: 186.2
    5/8/2012: 185.5
    5/15/2012: 187.5
    5/22/2012: 185.0 (last week must have been water)
    6/1/2012: 183.0

    Didn't quite make the 5 pounds, but I'll take 3.2 - especially with the gain in the middle of the month.

    Thanks for the challenge!

    1st May = 177.6
    5th May = 178.8 (+1.2)
    12th May = 177.6 (-1.2)
    24th May = 176.0 (-1.6)
    31st May = 175.0 (-1.0)

    So total loss of 2.6 lbs, not ground breaking but all moving in the right direction. Let's see what June brings :-)

    This is a little late but we've been out of town so much lately...

    May 4 - 134.2 - off to a good start, lets hope I keep going... .8 down
    May 11 - 133 - continuing at a good clip. down. 2 total
    May 18 - 131.6 - Wow, heading in the right direction still, just 1.4 pounds away from pre-vacation goal. - 3.4 total
    May 20 - 129.4 - Last day to weigh in before vacation starts. I did it! 5.6 total lost at this point!
    May 25 - 128 - And this is what I assume I was at on this day, we were in Disney and there was no way to weigh myself effectively. This is what I weighed when I got home. That is a loss of 6.2 pounds in May. LOVE IT!
