Oooh, late to the game, but I'm all in for humor, snark, and a bit of weight loss and fitness along the way!

Much easier to find, thanks! I had been down as much as 2.5 lbs from SW, but now am up 2 thanks to a very lazy, very relaxing, vacation.

*Waving to the group* Just heard about this today from Gona's wall post. I'm in. Putting my SW as of Monday as I see that was the "official start. Just a suggestion: can we "unsticky" some of the really old posts up top from prior challenges? It's a lot of scrolling to get down to the active threads. Claire8614: SW 147lbs…

I'm in! Great timing.

No exercise and less healthy than usual diet - the only way a loss happened this week was sheer stress, but I'm going to take it and run...

New to the group, but lured in by my dessert-loving friends. In!

I'm not sure how I had a loss this week. I suspect it's muscle mass, with almost no workouts in two weeks, but the number looks pretty for now. :p Good going to KA & Spidey - most impressive!

Work has been all-consuming the last two weeks, and I suspect the coming one will be no better, so my exercise has gone totally out the window. I haven't been horrible with my eating, but haven't been all that great either, which makes me suspect this week's loss is diminishing muscle mass. :\ Some nice losses his week,…

Oops, guess I missed last week, but it was a break event, so no drama missed. Work stress has killed my workout routine his past week plus. Going to try to force myself back on track this coming week. Yay Spidey & Claire! This Week's Weigh-Ins ========================================= samsamsam420 SW 208/ GW 185 / CW…

I'm here, I'm here. Saturday is my normal weigh-in day. My loss this week puts me at my pre-Christmas weight. (You can do it, Spidey!!) Anything after this is what I'd consider "real" loss. Congrats to all the negatives I see. Claire and Samsam - next week will be yours. (Although FB may have to confiscate the beer... ;) )…

Gonabfit had asked for one thing we were proud of. I figured I'd post here and see if we couldn't get a little conversation going. I'm proud that, for the last three weeks, I've worked out more days than not. Getting over 50% is pretty rare for me, so I'm hoping this is on its way to being an improved habit for me.

Happy with this week's results, given a really annoying midweek spike. Great job Claire & Joylaine! Spidey - less than a pound for a loaf of golden deliciousness? I think I'd take that trade (once in a while). This Week's Weigh-Ins ========================================= Joylaine: SW 196 / GW 182 / CW 195.5 / -0.5 lbs…

Goal for tomorrow: enjoy a little Super Bowl snacking, but keep it moderate.

Squeaked in with a little loss - I was worried for a bit, but came out okay at the end. :) This Week's Weigh-Ins ========================================= Fitterbody: SW 170 / GW 158 / CW 165.3 / -4.7 lbs this week.

Yay! JoyLaine's back! *waving*. LOL @ Fitter - this is an unusual streak for me, but who knows, could stick.

Arrrg! So frustrating when I'm doing solid workouts every day, and staying well under calorie goal, and yet the scale goes up. However, I know for me, DOMS = water retention, so I'm going to take that as a sign that my workouts are being effective and power on.

Way to go, KA & J! Fitter, I know you'll come roaring back next week. This Week's Weigh-Ins ================== Fitterbody: SW 170 / GW 158 / CW 170 / -0.0 lbs this week.

@ Mrs. D - no, not dumb at all, just new to the party. Welcome aboard!

See you there, Fitter! (Ok, not really 'cuz you're on the other side of the planet, but with you in spirit and will catch up when morning dawns over here.) :)

Way to go, KA! I got in a workout, too. A short walk, but 20 minutes at a good clip still beats 20 minutes on the couch.

I'm hoping we get some chat and such going this challenge...the lure of new posts helps me to remember to log and post my weigh-ins. Figured I'd kick this off with my personal goal for today: get a damn workout in! Normally, I have to exercise first thing out of bed to make it happen, but that wasn't going to work today.…

I'm back! My time AWOL over the holidays was fun, but ready to get back to a better me!

I've learned that I have to work out first thing in the morning. If it doesn't happen before breakfast, it's not going to. I do much better with food and exercise when I have a solid routine going. (Ok, some would call it a rut, but it works for me.) When I'm not traveling during the week, it's actually much harder for me…

I'm in! :bigsmile:

It's ok Kikalique, I'm even later than you. Lots of great results across the board! This has been a great, supportive, positive group, and it's been so much fun to watch everyone's progress! This last week I had a slight uptick (ok, not counting the "lost weekend" but I knew I wasn't going to include that), so I ended…

60 day I think works really well - that gets us to the start of "real" summer for us Northern Hemisphere folks, when kids get out of school and everybody starts taking their summer vacations. I'd love to have little formal mini-challenges week by week: 8 cups of water every day, or cardio 4 days in the week, just a little…

Sharebear - no gain on a long trip is an absolute victory. For me, since I travel every week, it's the reverse - I do better on the road. It's all about what your routine is, and anything that disrupts that is a challenge. GBrady - it's not just the gut that's going; your face has thinned out noticeably as well. Keep up…

Finally had a week with some actual progress! SW: 162.5 LW: 153 CW: 150 (although the first of the 3 lbs was just undoing damage from the previous weekend's road trip) CGW/UGW: 145 This would have been hitting my original challenge goal weight, so I'm happy about that, and happy that I finally kicked myself out of my…

Congrats to GBrady & Kikalique on making goal!! CoolChick - way to go hanging in there when all is conspiring to derail you! Skittles - congrats on the loss. Morzolas - steady state is still a moral victory in my book, so way to go to you too. I had a slight gain this week, not a surprise after not tracking my food on a…
