  • I am a little late to the game but this sounds like a good one. I am just surfacing after losing my Dear Husband Mark last summer. I need something to hang onto as I face the one year aniversary.

    Start May 9 195.8 k
  • Welcome to the thread, activeadventurer. And, I just want to say how sorry I am for what you have been through; I can't even imagine. I hope you're able to weather this summer with strength and a peaceful heart. Mine goes out to you!
  • Thank you D
  • Another week and more movement towards goal.

    I don't think I'll make the goal I set for myself, but I'm going to see how close i can get!
  • Welcome, ActiveAdventurer! If you'd like to join another challenge to help you push through, here it is- 4th of July Challenge! Very active thread and people there are supportive! Everyone else is welcome to join, BTW!

    Everyone seems to be doing great! Yay! Keep up the good work!

    Still moving down on the scale slowly. I doubt I will make goal which is fine with me as long as I am closer than when I started!
  • I didn't do so great over the weekend- partied too heartily until 5am, lol. I'm up in weight right now and expect to either gain or maintain when weigh-in comes up on Thursday.

    I'm back on track though since Sunday! Hope everyone else is doing great!

  • I just realized that I did not post here last week...oops! So, I will catch up today. Then again, I have only lost 3 pounds since I last posted here two weeks ago, so my progress has been leaving much to be desired -- especially this last week. I've been yoyo-ing up and down, much to my frustration. Hoping for a better week this week...I need it! Ha.

  • A much better week this week, yay! I thought I was going to go crazy if I didn't see some progress this time around, lol. Weigh-in for the week is 236.2, which makes 4 lbs down exactly this week.

    Anyways, so how's everyone doing? I know that, being a weekly only thread, it's a slower one to begin with...just making sure who all is still here! Any of the lurkers who just update their original post want to say hi? Haha. Hoping that the regulars post again over the next couple days too and that everyone's having a good week...only three more weigh-ins until our challenge is over!

  • OpheliaPhx- Yay, WTG!!! Your progress from the start of this thread to now is amazing- so close to goal too!!! Keep up the great work!

    Thnknthin1- 1lb away from the challenge goal (although you are practically there now!) How freaking awesome!! So happy for you!

    I have not been doing great at all, totally off-plan since last Friday, or was it Thursday? Stopped working out too. I have been and am very stressed and anxious currently. About 6 weeks ago, I had an ultrasound that revealed a small cyst on my ovary and the doc initially said it usually passes but to be sure, she wanted more ultrasounds at approx. 6 weeks. Tomorrow morning, I get the post 6 week check up results. Hopefully after all that, I will be back on track like usual though today I did well, I stayed within my points!

    Have a great evening, all!

  • amandie: I hope that your appointment goes well and that you're able to regain your peace of mind! Extra stress is a major trigger for giving up, but I hope you're able to find your way back after everything is sorted out...you got this!

    thnkthin1: Yay...that is amazing!!!
  • Thanks Ophelia and Amandie!

    Ophelia you're doing awesome! You go girl!

    Amandie glad to read in another thread everything is good with you.
  • CONRATS!! you are doing great!!! keep up the good work
  • Ugh, this was my worst week for weight loss since restarting this journey in general, much less since starting this challenge. I went out of town for the weekend, and while I made the best choices for what was available to me, I still gained then maintained for a few days, so my weigh-in for the week ended up being 235.4 -- which means I didn't even lose a whole pound all week, overall. I know any loss is better than a gain, though, so I'm just going to stay positive, move on and try to do better this week!
