Weight loss goal for September: 8 pounds Net weight loss from September 3rd: weight 185.8 today 180.6 -5.2 pounds loss Favorite motivators: Coming back from a few weeks of falling of the diet wagon and lost my way for a while. MY only motivator is to be at my first goal of a 100 pounds loss. Started at 270.4 pounds June…

Thanks for starting this thread, great idea. Today i am having a very relaxing day, no picnics, had 2 already this weekend. Just spending time relaxing poolside. Staying on track for staying under my calorie goal for today

Sorry June 2014 not 2015 that i started losing weight

our weigh not over. sorry

Started this journey weighing at 270.4 pounds June 2015 as of today i am at 182.2. Still have a few pounds to go to re hit my all time low of 176 pounds. I found that taking my goal and turning it into small one 10 pound mini goals its not as overwhelming. In my head losing 10 pounds sounds easier that 100 pounds. This has…

I didn't have a loss for the last challenge. I am all in for this one. I did lose over 93 pounds since June 2014. I had a few bad weeks with a lot of family stuff and put on about 7 pounds. Its all better now so back on focusing on me. I can do this. I will do this.

Staying busy is my biggest problem. when i am not working i don't move. I did get a fitbit and it helps. At times i can't believe how still i was, It makes me move so my steps can add up.

Awesome

Just did, thanks for starting a new group. Come one everyone, join us

SW: 270.4 June 2014 CW: 183.2 September 4 GW: 163.2 Cattail when are we posting over weights???

Hey everyone, i was in the last group with CatAlii. Very excited that she started a new group. I am a Mom of three grown boys, well almost grown, 19, 23, 25. I have been married for 27 years. I work in Retail and i am starting a new job soon which will give me access to a Gym whenever i wait. So no more excuses. I started…

IN

Yes i'm in. I need to get back and keep going. I have slipped up the past few weeks and need to restart. I think 5 pounds a month until December 31st. That should keep us motivated through the holidays up to the new year.

Lets do this Stefie, yes a new challenge would be awesome. I hope we can keep this group going. FYI I am in a group challenge that ends on the 19th of September. they are calling it the 50 days of 2015: The Warm Up. Its the third challenge that this group started. I believe they will start a new one after the 19th. I will…

Looks like we have stopped weigh in, i know that i have been MIA are we still going with weekly check ins or just a chat group? I hope we keep going.

Stefie Your on. Even though i didn't lose my streak i feel like i have started over 2 days down and i kept on track. Here is to day 3. I don't drink or do drugs but i feel like i am a recovering addict. I guess i am addicted to food, LOL. Anytime you need to talk i am here. Just want to thank you again for having my back…

Well six days have gone by and i failed. On August 12th i promised myself to get back on track, i didn't. Yesterday August 17 i finally did it. I went the entire day and made all the right choices. Here is to day 2, i have to keep focused. Stepped on the scale this morning and i knew the number would go up and it had, up 5…

So sorry i have been MIA the last few weeks. Just can't seem to get out of this funk that i am in. I have put back on some weight and i have not been working out. It's been 1 week since i weighed myself. So afraid to get on and see what damage i caused. Just can't seem to pull myself together. I hate that i am using the…

I woke up today saying that i need to get back on the right path. Each day i say that same thing then don't. I hope that today i can. Going to start with a protein shake for breakfast and then a lunch around 1, before i need to leave for work. Hoping for a good day :(

Stacey, Thank you so much. Weird thing with all of this mess is that i am not an emotional eater so i don't understand why i turned to the food. I am a bored eater. I guess it really doesn't matter i still turned to food. Moving forward is all i can do. Sending hugs your way. Thanks Friend <3

Stacey i am having the same feelings. I haven't been into my journey this past few weeks. Just as i was getting better we had gotten bad news that my Son fiancé has decided to cancel the wedding with only 3 months left before their big day. He has been so upset that i too am feeling his pain. I have been emotional eating…
