I would like to join in and also looking to drop 50 lbs in 2015. I just keep gaining and need to put the brakes on. I'm 48 and 49 is just around the corner. It's true, the older you get, the harder it is to drop weight. But gaining it is a breeze! ;)

Count me in!! I have started this weight loss journey more times than I can remember--trying to drop 50 lbs. I know what to do to make this happen, I just have to follow through. No one is going to lose this weight for me. I turn 48 on Wednesday and was so hopeful I would have the weight off by now. I didn't put in the…

I'm happy to report that last week I lost 4.4 lbs. It was a complete surprise too. I came down with a cough so was drinking alot of water to keep my throat from getting so dry. Plus I started taking a quick walk during my lunch breaks. Now to just keep up my water intake. This week I'm going to make a real effort to log my…

Hello, I would like to join this group. Overall I have 55 lbs to lose, but just plan to set weight loss goals a few lbs at a time. I need to do this to improve my health as I have high blood pressure and borderline high cholesterol. Here are my stats: CW: 214 GW: 160 HT: 5'7" 47 yrs old We also have some fun events this…

I'm in the same boat with having around 50 lbs to lose and I'm a night-time snacker. This bad habit helped me in gaining 10 lbs every year for about the last 5 years! Recently I've had a few health issues 'creep' up and all are due to my extra weight. My goal is to drop these 50 lbs in a year...quicker would be even…

You look great! Thank you for sharing your pictures, :happy:

Last Monday: 203 Today's weight: 208 :sad: I was not focused at all last week and had a really bad weekend, eating wise. I indulged too much on chips, salsa, and beer. As a result, I had a 5 lb weight gain from last Monday. 5 pounds!!! My ultimate goal is to drop 30 lbs by the end of Summer. I really need to buckle down or…

I didn't get a chance to check in yesterday, but my Monday's weight was 204! Heading in the right direction!! :happy:

Congratulations! You have to be so proud of yourself. :happy:

Count me in too! Losing 10 lbs will be the jump start I need to get to my goal. SW: 206

Great idea! I may have to do this myself. Thanks for sharing!! Good luck on your weight loss journey.

Count me in too! This is my biggest problem, especially at night, after dinner.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to post my weight yesterday. No change :sad: , but I'm not giving up. I just have to focus and start exercising. I just can't seem to get this through my thick head. My sciatic nerve is acting up, my oh my, that sure can hurt some days. I'm hoping when I get on my treadmill tonight that it will…

No change in weight for me either. I'm happy that I didn't gain. Last year at this time I was 20 lbs lighter and my husband and I were going to the gym about 3-4 times a week. I didn't do alot when I was there, some treadmill and a few weights. It didn't seem like alot at the time, but boy, I can sure tell a difference…

Hi, This will be quick, not much time to post. Today's weight is 201, down a few, but still up from my initial weigh-in. This weeks goal is to drink more water than Diet Pepsi! Have a good week everyone!

Hello everyone, My first week didn't go so well. So to get the bad news out of the way, I gained 4 lbs!!!! 204 today. :sad: My goal for this week is to not snack after dinner. I have such a time sticking with my calories, especially at night. Last night I was so upset with myself. I want to lose weight so bad, and I just…

Hello All, I just found this challenge on Thursday so this is my first week of the challenge. I'm hoping for a week of staying on track and getting in a little exercise. I know that's an important key, but taking baby steps right now. SW: 200 (8/29) GW: 180 by 12/25/11 Nutrition goal this week is to stay within my alloted…

Hello, I just stumbled upon this topic and wondering if it's too late to join this group? If not, here's some info about me. I'm 45, will be married 22 years on 11-11-11 (I'm excited about that!) and have 2 children. Last year I managed to lose 25 lbs only to gain every little ounce back. Every day I 'start over' and every…
