My goal was to be down to 199 pounds. I am currently at 205 pounds. So, I have six pounds to go. I think to get to 199 I had to lose a total of 20 pounds. I will have to check and make sure. It's going to be so, so , so close for me. The couple of weeks I have been averaging 2 pounds each time. I won't be able to weigh though until July 5th, because the place I weigh will be closed on the 4th which is a Sunday. I'm really watching it this week to try to get a 3 pounds loss which will help out bunches.
Gretchen, you only have 2 pounds to go!! You are going to make yours early!! Way to go!!
Edit: I checked, it was indeed 20 pounds lost as my goal to get to 199 for the 4th of July challenge.

Mine was to be able to wear my two shrits that I have not been able to wear. I am in them but they are just ever so slightly snug on that last button. I should be fine by July 4 though.

I started at 225 on March 8. (Almost 4 months now) I am totally amazed at my results. I average about a 3.5 lb loss per week. Its become such a habit (what I eat and my exercise routine) that I don't even feel like I am on a weight reduction plan. I almost feel guilty for losing weight and living a normal (or what has become my normal) eating lifestyle and still enjoying my food! Congrats to you Dana on rejoining weightwatchers this week. You will do wonderfully!! Keep a positive attitude!

My goal was to be able to jog a mile. Let's see I haven't worked in it at all. I've chosen swimming as my exercise of choice. I plan on going out tonight though to see how far I can get.

Ah, my goal was 289, but that was before I discovered that my starting weight was higher than I thought... I won't make 289, but maybe I can make 299 and get under 300 for good... Yes, in fact, I will. I'm going to get to 299 by July 4. And I'll never see 300 again.

I'm pretty sure I'm not going to make my goal due to some piddling around I did the past three or four weeks. But I'm okay with that and looking forward to the next challenge.
