I'm totally in. Weekends = Weakness for me.
And this weekend will be a rough one. We have a family party 2 1/2 hours away so 5 hours in the car round trip. A whole day of bbq'ing on Saturday. And ever since football started this past weekend, on Sundays it's hard to avoid the beer & crap food...

I'll post my weight on 09/18 & then again on 09/21 and pray.

Hello, I am in this challenge too. But if you don't mind, I used to step on the scale always in morning right after I wake up, thus I will post my weight from Saturday morning and Monday morning. Is it OK?

Ok, since I'm a morning weigher also, I'm going to post my starting weight: 220.0

Which sucks since I was down to my lowest on Wed of 218.6 and haven't gone off plan AT ALL this week. But this also gives me a better chance to be at a lower number Monday morning as long as I'm really careful this weekend... Good luck, everyone!

ps - I just noticed we're all around the same weight, too! Isn't that weird?

Hello, so I weighed myself this morning and I am 229,2. I just hope it will be less or at least the same Monday morning.

Yesterday while I was at work, my mom organised visit to my cousin and his wife. It's not like I don't want to go, they are great and very nice and I didn't see them like for month - but they always experiment with recipes (italian cuisine, german cuisine, different cakes, etc.) and cook and bake very good - yeah, I hope, they won't force me to eat too much - you know it too, right: "Come on, this little cake won't kill you!" or "Do you like this pasta? Then take one more portion!"

No, Abby, don't be sad! 1,8 lbs it' not so much. And I'm pretty sure it's water. Did you eat something salty? I was Saturday off plan too, I were on the wisit and I ate pancakes filled spinach and cheese. But luckily, my cousin didn't force me eat too much. And I increased my training during the weekend, instead of 45 minutes I execised one hour. You will see, next weekend will be better!

Thanks Ayu & David. I definitely appreciate the comments. David, I'm still working on getting the 'click'. It was there, and I've since lost it, but at least I'm pretty much maintaining at this point. I'm back down this morning.

And since this weekend I have my first 5k! I'm hoping I'll have actually lost weight by next Sunday.. Good luck everyone.
