    Thanks for getting us started this week Maggie - and never a problem for anyone on the team to start the weekly weigh-in topic! I appreciate the participation!! And I love the format you used listing out all the weeks - going to do that myself to keep a monitor of how I did over the 16 weeks - great idea!

    That said - I am in a bit of a predicament today. As of yesterday I was up a lb from last week. Today my scale gave me 3 different weights on three different step-ups. So I'm guessing either my scale ot it's battery is shot. I'm posting the weight from yesterday, but once I get my scale fixed will try again and see what happens!

    Initial Weight 6/07: 307.8 lbs

    End Weigh In: 4 Oct:

    Pretty pleased with that as had a heavy weekend so can't complain. Have found myself eating up the exercise calories given to me by my Fitbit adjustment and have noticed a creep up in the calories I'm averaging, I suspect a little too high for me. Am changing my settings to lightly active from sedentary as apparently the adjustment will be lower so this wont give me so many extra cals - I'm sure I don't really need them but I eat them if they're there!

    Best of luck all - here's to having a healthy week ahead :smile:

    Everyone is doing so great! If you aren't seeing loss on the scale - make sure you are tracking your measurements at least once a month. I have been seeing great loss in inches, even though the scale isn't budging. Seeing the loss somewhere - and yes - feeling better in general - makes up for the lack of scale movement!

    Have a great week 3!
