How is everyone doing so far?

Good morning Pink Hurricane. I'm at 230.4 this morning. So the scales are moving down---I've lost 3.6 since the challenge started. Not bad!

Hope everyone is doing well and remembering to post their losses!!

How is everyone doing? I've lost a total of 5.2# on this challenge. Only 3 weeks left so I doubt I'll make the 12# loss I set as goal but I'm going to give it a good old try!!!

I've lost 6.2 lbs. in 6 weeks. Not the weight loss I'd hoped for. I'm working soooo hard! Staying on plan and working out 4-5 days a week. I was hoping for more than 1 lb. a week!!! But I'll take it. Maybe this last week, the scales will love me.

Good luck to everyone else! I'm going to need a new challenge after this one!!

We have one week left in this challenge!!!

Where has the time gone? How is everyone doing? Be sure to post!!

Let's have a strong finish!!!

Good morning sluggerbean! As of today I've lost 2.2 additional pounds this week!!! YAY! It took dropping to 900 cal. per day and working my butt off to achieve it! I was maintaining at 1200 calories and GAINING weight at 1400 calories! Stupid old lady metabolism!!!

If I can maintain this loss until my official weigh-in on monday I'll be HAPPY! My 29th wedding anniversary is saturday though and that might pose a problem as hubby wants to go out and eat!

BTW--- you are an inspiration with your 147# weight loss!!! What an accomplishment!

Well, my 7 week challenge ended today. My total weight loss was 7.6 lb.s ...a little disappointed actually because I worked really, really hard, both on staying on track on diet and working out at gym. But, losing weight at my age is not easy!

I need a new challenge now to keep me motivated!!!

Thank you! My birthday was Saturday and I overate both Saturday & Sunday.

The new challenge is up, so head on over!!
