End of Summer Challenge - August 31, 2005 - Page 7 - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

I just realized that I've only lost 5 lbs since we started in 6/14! Yes, I know it's not "only", but at this rate, I may not hit 30lbs.

I'm getting a little nervous, August is coming quickly!!

Hey Girls,

I'm down 3 LBS this week! YaY!!!
Congrats to all the LoSeRs!!!!

DishyFishy · 07-22-2005, 04:28 PM

Congrats for all those on track.

Encouragement for those who aren't.
I'm a wee bit behind schedule, but I'm okay with that. The numbers are going in the right direction, I'm staying OP, and I feel better by the day. Can't ask for any more than that, can I?

Well, I dropped 2 pounds this week to put me halfway there.

: I'm not pinning my hopes on averaging 2.6 pounds a week for the remaining time to meet the challenge though. Still, what's another couple of weeks in the grand scheme of things?

With only 5 weeks to go, how's everyone else doing?

Doing well here! 15 lbs gone, 5 lbs left to go.

Hello everyone!

I joined late in the game, but I'm still pleased that I've lost some weight and have -11 to look forward to over the next five weeks. Hopefully, I can consistently lose 2lbs/week

(We'll see)

Stay strong and motivated everyone!

Exactly 5 weeks to go! Good to see that so many are having successes!

I wish I could report better news for myself but I'm not completely giving up. Things have been rough around here. Seems like there is always something going on with the husband, work or trying to get the darned house ready to sell. Anyhow I'm just shooting for 10 lbs at this point, 2 lbs a week is reasonable.

WOW! I hit my end of summer goal today. I was a bit conservative with my goal because at the time I made it I was plateaued. I am so hit to see those numbers though!!
Congrats to everyone else who has made it and is well on their way. Good luck everyone!

I've got 9lb to go to get to 199, although my ticker goes on a few weeks longer than the end of summer now.

I'm feeling hopeful, if not amazingly confident...

Congratulations Kimmifier on reaching your goal! Great work

DishyFishy · 07-28-2005, 03:10 PM

Great job, Kim! Congrats on your success!

Rtael · 07-28-2005, 07:39 PM

Well I had two goals and my first is going to be a hard one now.

KIMMIFIER · 07-28-2005, 08:06 PM

what's wrong, Rtael?

BIGGIRL27 · 08-05-2005, 07:45 AM

Hi All, I've just movd house and don't have internet access just yet so I've not been able to update. Everything is still swell. I've lost another pound. 'Only' 10 to go over the next 3.5 weeks

OK, I'll be happy with losing 5 of those... stay strong everyone!

Sheila53 · 08-06-2005, 04:51 PM

Haven't seen some of our challengers around for a while. Hope everyone is having a fun summer, and even if you don't meet your goal, we still want you to stick around and post.

With 25 days left in this challenge, I have to lose 8.5 lbs. (which would put me .5 pounds into VFT--my goal). I've been averaging about 1 lb. a week so I'm skeptical about making it, but glad that I'm plugging along. Can't really think of what else to do to speed up the weight loss so I'll just be happy that I'm losing something every week.
