It's "funny" how many people are not here anymore. Hope they are doing well in whatever they are doing. :)

That is awesome! Congrats!

congrats!! nice job!

You are doing fantastic!! A 2 pound loss in a week = you're doing something right!!

SW = 212.4 April 17 = 211 April 24 = 211 May 1 = 208.4 May 8 = 207.5 GW = 207.4 Seriously??? 1/10 of a pound? Oh well - I am definitely NOT complaining!! :) Hope everyone is doing good!! Keep on keeping on!

Water! Drink lots of water today and check it again tomorrow. See what happens..

Hey! Thanks for starting the post but it's May 1 not March 1. :) LOL Nice job on the weight loss by the way! SW = 212.4 April 17 = 211 April 24 = 211 May 1 = 208.4 May 8 = GW = 207.4 I have no idea if that's my actual weight or not. I have two scales in the house - one is brand new and says I am 2 pounds heavier. But the…

Hi! My goal weight for 05/08 is 206. Thanks!!

So today is my official WI day and today I lost 1.5 pounds. Can I still count it towards the challenge?? LOL

My first 5K I had never ran more than 2 miles. I didn't think I could ran farther than that. What I found out was that was a bunch of hooey. I ran the majority of my first 5K and finished with a very good time (just under a 14 minute mile). My biggest advice is to not let your mind get in the way of you achieving the…

SW = 212.4 April 17 = 211 April 24 = 211 May 1 = May 8 = GW = 207.4 No change but yesterday was a bugger of a day. Pizza buffet for lunch with a client and pizza for supper for an event I was facilitating. I was pretty impressed though - I know I kept it under 1800-1900 calories which is only about 600 over for me. Wasn't…

I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. My dad passed away 3 years ago May 29 - three years ago I was sitting vigil in a hospital while we waited. In the midst of all the sadness huge NSV for you. Prayers and hugs!!

SW - this challenge 212.4 April 17 weight - 211 However, I have a disclaimer. The starting weight is on a different scale. The one I was using I discovered isn't consistent so I am not sure where I am at. But - the 211 weight was on a different scale which gave me the same number three times. So I"m going with that today.…

It always counts - could be water weight etc. Next week you'll probably be back down again! Congrats!!

But you still lost 6 pounds in 4 weeks!! That is awesome! Congratulations!

I'm in! SW - 212.4 GW - 207 5 pounds gone Plus a goal of 3 -4 days a week of 60 minutes or more exercise (That's a big commitment with my schedule but it needs to be done!!) :happy: So on weigh-in Wednesday I will be reporting pounds lost and minutes exercised. Good luck!!

You guys are all awesome!!! :flowerforyou: My stats: SW - 217 Wk 1 - 215.2 Wk 2 - 213.6 Wk 3 - 215.6 Wk 4 - 212.4 GW - 212 Goal 5 pounds gone Actual 4.6 pounds gone I missed it by 4/10 of a pound!!!!!! LOL But still thrilled with the results. Keep it up everybody!!!

We definitely could...and maybe add something to it. Say eating 5 F/V a day or whatever seems to be the weakest "strength" for someone. Maybe it's increasing water or decreasing sugar or what have you. Just a thought! :)

I'm here...plugging along. Making some changes and feeling pretty good actually. :)

CW - 215.6 I gained. Not as bad as I thought honestly but still close to a 2 pound gain. I'm struggling finding my groove because I am finding if I don't limit my calories to 1200 I don't lose any weight. But - I am doing the C25K and I bought the 30 Day Shred last night. I figure the 30 Day should shake up my system and…

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! How exciting! ;)

I started the C25K on Monday and ran Monday and Wednesday. Walked on Tuesday - so that's my game plan to either do a workout from C25K or take the dog for a walk. Right now the weather is cooperating - a cool 40 degrees or so - but that is fantastic weather for running! If the weather doesn't cooperate - well, I haven't…

Joyful...pay more attention to what your weekly weight is versus daily. My "official" weigh-in day is Thursday and that is what I really look at for tracking my weight loss. I'm lucky that this challenge fell on the day before so it's close. Keep drinking lots of water (if you're not already - you may be!!), and pick one…

SW - 217 Wk 1 - 215.2 Wk 2 - 213.6 Goal weight loss 5 lbs. Total weight loss to date 3.4 lbs. :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy:

Sometimes I think we get so focused on the scale or our weight that we forget to acknowledge all the other little steps that we are doing to become healthier. Good luck on your martial arts!! I tried that Tae Kwon Do for three months but 1.5 years later I still have bruises on my legs. I don't do well with contact!! :) LOL

Awesome job! Thank you! Did you get my starting weight for last week? My weight when I started MFP was 220 (3-11-13) My WI last week (3-17) was 217 Maybe it doesn't matter. :)

My plan is the same but different. LOL No, I want to continue documenting the food I'm eating to track calories. Eventually I want to add walking/running in to my schedule but several reasons are holding me back. The fact that it is -15 degrees out when we are waking up and well the weather. :) I will start exercising.…

SW - 217 Today's weight - 215.2 SOOO close to 2 pounds but I'll take 1.8!!!! :) Congrats to everybody who has checked in so far!! Looking good!!!!

I know first hand how frustrating this is, but try to focus on the positive. You've maintained. That in itself is an incredible feat and you should be proud of yourself for that. Change things up a little, less carbs, more protein or something like that and see if your body just needs a jump start. Just don't forget to pat…

That is awesome!! I cant wait until it starts warming up a little bit so I can start running again.
