welcome Aletheia and GreatPerhaps!!

There are 10 more weeks to the end of this challenge and I think that is the perfect time frame. Aside from setting weight loss goals for myself, I am also making 10 weeks committments to stay on plan. It's too scary to try to tell myself to do that for approx. a year, but 10 weeks? That I can do!

Good luck!!

Down 2.2 for the week. I wanted to lose 30 in this challenge, so I'm down 16.6 with 13.4 to go. I'll check back later to see how everyone else is doing - running late today.

School has me running ragged! I haven't been on since WI LAST week. Sorry to have dropped the ball on cheering for you all. I am. And this challenge still lends me accountability and support. Eric leaves next week for Portland, so it's going to be busier, still. It is my goal to figure out a time where I can log in, even once a week, and play catch up on posts. I believe in being a supporter, not just someone who gets support.

Thanks for the Love,

-Kiki

PS the physical work of school (I work in the Gallery and am walking EVERYWHERE and lifting and hanging art etc) and the running is paying off! I seem to be weighing in on Wed instead of Thursday because of timing, but I'm -5 lbs this week!

Kiki - you always do support everyone. Personals aren't necessary, you know, as nice as it is to get a personal shout out from other 3fc members. I'd rather see your smiling photo once in a while and know you're lurking and posting what you can than have you disappear because of time constraints.

Keep up the great work - I've never had a 5 pound loss in 1 week. You have to feel great about that! You're doing such a great job.

great WI, Lin!!!

Welcome Hillary!

Kiki - don't worry about personals, when you have time, it's nice but you have to do what works for you, and if that's keeping you from checking in here, that's definitely not worth it!! When you have more time, you can be more of a cheering section for others.

Good week...I'm still in the early stage of the new program. I expect the weight loss to slow down to a more sustainable pace this week.

Chall Start: 244.8
9/16: 235.6

I won't update my ticker yet, but did my mid week sneak peak and I'm on track for another good week that should leave me with under 16 lbs to go for this challenge!

I'm down 1 pound even this week. 6.2 to go for before T-day. I got this! I love seeing that everyone is doing pretty well this week.

Sarabrooke - I bounce around sometimes even when I am 100% on plan. As long as the general trend is downward then you are a success! Congrats on an awesome loss this week.

A terrible week, I gained 15 pounds in three days this week. I spent three days in the hospital with symptoms of a heart attack. I did not have one but a coronary artery bypass that was done this April has narrowed by 40%. The good news is it is treatable with medication. While in the hospital I recieved sodium loaded saline solution via IV as they were trying to raise my blood pressure. Now all that sodium is causing fluid retention.

Thanksgiving goal weight is 184 pounds

July 07 ~ 226
July 14 ~ 224
July 21 ~ 222
July 28 ~ 220
Aug 04 ~ 225
Aug 11 ~ 217 ** 100 pounds lost since 1/6//11 **
Aug 18 ~ 215
Aug 25 ~ 215 ** I have been on a plateau for 12 days now as of today 8/27
Sept 01 ~ 213
Sept 08 ~ 210
Sept 15 ~ 225
