I can't believe we're already at Week 4. Seems like time is flying in this challenge! I'm back at work this week so am hoping that brings some normality back into my life. I'm heading out to a restaurant tonight where they have this amazing Brazilian Churrascaria. I haven't been there in a few months so I just have to make sure I don't go overboard as it's all you can eat. I hope everyone is having a good start to the week!

I'm here, after my crappy sunday weigh in of +.5 or 162, I weighed yesterday and today 159!! I'm finally out of the 160's!!

Thanks, Kim! Great job this week, ladies!! Team Athena was the biggest losers for the week! :carrot::D

im feeling alot better now kim thank you :) me and my daughter have finaly got rid of the illness an she is back to school. im back at my exercise (slowly) and walking the dogs :D

So I'd like to think that I was successful at the restaurant. I'm fully expecting a slight gain from the extra sodium but overall I'm happy with my choices.

KimL1214 - Is the cold in full force yet? Hopefully you've had a bit of rest & feel a little better today.

we'll I've had more stress this past week with work and now my dad is in the hospital for blood clots.. he's fine, he just has to be on blood thinners for like a year! I don't know the last time I was at the gym so I'm going today on my day off!
Luckily I weighed in at 194.4 which is almost my 2lb loss goal for the week!! maybe I should shoot for 3!

hope you all keep truckin along..

oh oh!! I just have to tell you all. but I went to Old Navy for new work pants and I fit into a 14! They were tight, but i still got them buttoned! a 16 fits better, but I could button the 14! I'm excited to keep losing weight and maybe those 14s will fit perfect next time

Hey Ladies!

WTG on everyone who had losses this week!!

I'm down another pound, and I so hope this keeps up! so I'll be down 4lbs when we weigh in!! My goal for is to be 155 by Oct. 1, it looks like it may happen or atleast be really close.

I've got orientation for school tomorrow, and I'm trying to decide what to wear, maybe I'll try on some of my too small clothes.

Kim, I was 3 lbs down this morning. Hopefully that # sticks or continues to drop. I was really worried that after a 6 lb loss last week I would have no loss or a very insignificant loss this week. I will gladly take these 3 lbs :) This week I have been pretty tired so I am keeping my activity level to a minimum. I need to step that up a lot.

so glad our team was number 1 this week!! Way to go every1! I'm hoping I'll lose a few this week, don't know because I lost so much this week. I get my official weight and measurements tomorrow at my gym, I'm super nervous cause it's been four weeks and I know I lost weight but still-I'm always dissapointed afterwards thinking-knowing I could have done better. So wish me luck tomorrow on my inches and bmi measurments!!
I hope every 1 is having a great week, I haven't been on having a lot of drama w/ my toddlers :) but wanted to get on and show I'm excited for our team!!

Nessa, good luck! And Congrats on being this weeks biggest loser for our team!!!:hug:

Kim, I don't have a plan on how I should step it up as of now. I definitely need to come up with one. That will be my weeks goal - to come up with an activity plan. :D have fun at the gym today!

I woke up this morning to another 4 lb loss... what?!?!:D I am not going to count it yet though because sometimes when I whoosh down like that, I yoyo back up a lb or a few for a couple of days. If I see it again this week or see a lower # on my scale I will count it. I always wait until I see a number at least twice to count it because of water weight and scale discrepancies.

If that is correct, it would bring my loss this week to 7 lbs. Since I had a 6 lb loss last week I wasn't expecting it to be anywhere near that but I will definitely take it... haha! When I started my weight loss journey a few months ago, I was averaging 6 or 7 lbs every week. However, as time has passed, I have creeped down to a 5, 4 or 3 lb loss per week. I hope this keeps up for a little while :) I am loving these big #s!!

Good luck everyone! Hope you are all having a great week!

aww i love huskies!. ive got a german shephard and a staff bull terria.the grinning dog in my pic is lady the g.s she is so funny!, when i have a few mins ill post up a link to some pics of the dogs :D.. i got lady weighed the other day an she weighs around 57lb but is really good walking my moms dog use to take me for a walk like your parents husky! sadly he past away 4yrs ago. mia the staff she weighs 17pounds but still can take me for a walk lol she has alot of power behind her but im still training her :)

Good job at the victory guys. I can't take credit AT ALL because I missed the weigh in .. oops. I was baby sitting over night at my sisters and forgot all about it.

I haven't been very on track the last week or so either ... I need a kick in the rear!
