Probably close to 12lb difference.. I am losing slow, but I continue to exercise and eat right most of the time and the weight doesn't always drop as much as I would like but the inches keep coming off.. My goal is if I lose it slow then I will be more likely to keep it off. We'll see. :smile:

I can see a big difference in your face.! Keep it up! Your weight is very similar to mine.. If you don't mind me asking. How tall are you?

Thanks - Looking younger is always a plus too!

Congrats! Great job, keep it up!! This is very encouraging to me... . It is nice to see someone else with a slow and steady weight loss...because this is my goal. Slow and steady!!

Go back to the basics... Body squats, jumping jacks, sit ups, crunches, push-ups, lunges, dips, pull-ups... However, purchasing some hand weights is not going to be a bad investment... Adding weight doing the basics is only going to help you tone up a little quicker. Hope this helps!

Weighing In... SW - 211 CW -208 8 More to go... Would love to be out of the 2s by Christmas. :smile: Good luck everyone!

I wasn't down 20 by Halloween but my net loss was down... Moving in the right direction! Good job everyone, and thank you Caripta85 for putting this together... It definately was accountabilty. Now on to a new challenge!

I would like to join too.. SInce the holiday season is the hardest for me to maintain this is a great opportunity to keep me motivated. My goal is to lose 12lbs by Christmas Eve. I'll be weighing in on Monday mornings!

Thanks for all the suggestions!

MFP - Needs a like button. :smile: Great Job!... This is so inspiring.

Down 1.3lbs this week.... :bigsmile: I have to weigh every week to keep myself in check! Yeah for this challenge. I won't be down 20 by halloween but if I am down 8lbs that is an average a pound a week, and for me that is acceptable. Going to set some new mini goals after this challenge is over. Any suggestions. Great job…

Down 0.4 not great but moving in the right direction. I think I am a down a total of 3lbs since I joined this challenge. Plus where has the rest of the team been? We have 4 weeks left of this challenge we might as well make the most of it :)

I was down 0.4lbs not great but it's still in the right direction. I'll keep moving along... Sometimes it just really sucks! :)

I was so dreading the weigh in this morning because I have not been making the best choices this weekend...but I had lost 1.4lbs plus the 0.9 I had gained! :bigsmile: Good luck hope everybody is a loser this week, not literally!! :smile:

Weigh in week 2 (for me) is not exactly what I wanted... I gained 0.9lbs... But I did have a NSV this week and lost 3.5 inches. This week is a new week, and I am trying to stay focused. I didn't gain this weight in a day or even weeks time so, I am not going to lose it either in this time frame... Slow and steady wins the…

I am down a 0.4lbs not a great lost... but I am still losing! :happy: Great job everyone.

Hi am Dominique... Is it to late to join this group? I hope not. I live in Kentucky and have a 2yr old daughter and a 12 yr old son, and I work full time as a software developer. So, busy busy busy... My husband works evenings and so I am a single mom M-F for the most part. Well that's what it feels like. :) I love MFP and…

Thanks for all the advice... I had a dr appt today and the doc said get rid of them... So.. since I am more likely to stick with something if I gradually cut it out of my diet.. I am going to gradually cut back and still have one on special occasions.

BTW - Thanks for all the feed from everybody... This is my very first post to MFP!:smile:

I can definately tell the sodium effects my body and I tend to retain fluid...

The older I get the more I like coffee... But it's usually not my first choice. I have picked up more crystal light, but probably still not enough of just plain o water.
