So I was doing great for a while with steady weight loss but for some reason I just can't get below 180! ; (

This is the ultra weird part...After work yesterday I weighed myself just for the heck of it and i weighed 180 lbs, after that, I went to bed and weighed myself again in the morning...just guess how much I weighed!!!

182 lbs!! And I don't eat after I get home from work either. I guess its just water but geeez. How can going to sleep make a person gain two pounds???lol.

blah anyways...i'm also about to start TOM, so that could also be contributing to wacky weight gain. The end of this challenge is coming up though...not sure if i'm gonna make it chicks! wish me luck!

Chipmunk, that's pretty crazy I'm sure it has to do with TOM and I hope you see a big woosh as soon as he is gone. Stay strong you can do it!! :hug:

GW: 159.5
Progress: 5.5 lbs down, 1.2 lbs to go

I'm getting closer! Not sure if I'll make it by Saturday but I'm hoping to be in the 150's (even 159.9) on my official WI Monday.

sw: 147
cw:144
gw: 142

I don't feel lighter. blah

:lol: That's funny, cuz I totally feel you!

fashin - You're doing great!!! Keep it up, I'm sure you can see 159.9 saturday!!

I'm sad that this challenge is coming to an end. I've done fairly well and will post "officially" tomorrow morning. :) If I'm correct, everyone who participated will be posting a loss tomorrow (whether it was goal or not) and for that I'm sure we're all grateful. ;) See you all tomorrow!!! On the FIRST DAY OF SPRING!!!

3 pounds lost! Goal hit! YAY!

sw:190
cw:182
gw:179

Snow, I feel you too. I don't know what it is but I feel bloated and yucky I'm hoping it will go away for both of us.

stargzr, thanks girl I really hope so. I want to join you in the 150's thread so darn bad! Lol. I'm sad this challenge is coming to an end too and I hope you're right about us all seeing losses!

utgirl, way to go hitting your goal that's so great!!

byebye, I probably won't quite make my goal either but you are right a loss is a loss and I'm sure we'll get there soon!

160.6 this morning and I feel bloated and yucky so I doubt I'll have a 1 lb loss over night, but a girl can dream right? ;)

-- so i HIT GOAL!! i wasn't all that OMGOMGOMG about it this morning, because yesterday i kept weighing myself throughout the day because the scale kept looking like it wanted to say 189 yesterday... so im just fine because it confirmed it. also, it's not official weigh-in till Wednesday for me, but because the end of this goal falls before that, i still count it :) i AM happy that I have completed a mini-goal challenge! the valentines day one didn't work out for me (did come in within a couple lbs though)

-- keep up the great work everyone!! you're all doing fantastic :)

Congrats missy!!!

Didn't quite make it, but I'm still holding out hope that I'll see 159 on Monday for my official WI. Only 1 lb away is better than nothing. Congrats to everyone who made goal! :)

Well, I changed my goal from 147.2 to 145 after a fluke week of losing 3lbs. But then I went through a month long plateau where I didn't lose anything. So I did not make it to my revised goal, but I did make it to my original goal and I'm very happy with that considering I didn't lose for a month I got there exactly too...not a tenth of a pound more or less.

SW: 153.2
GW: 147.2
Final weight: 147.2!

Congrats to everyone who reached their goals, and to those who didn't quite make it, I'll see you in the next challenge!!!

Hey mkendrick we're at very similar weights atm! ;)

SW: 159.4
CW: 147.6 (-11.8)
GW: 150

Woohoo! I hit goal with some to spare! :D Definitely focusing more on toning up now more than anything, but I'm happy where things are headed, 80 lbs lost is right around the corner! :)

BIG CONGRATS to snow, utgirl, fashin, missy, mkendrick, lblazy!!!!! Although some of us didn't quite meet our original goals, there are losses posted for everyone and that is SUPER AWESOME!!! You've all done a fabulous job!!!
:woohoo:

So I didn't make it to my goal, but I did lose 10 pounds! WOOT! Also, that only leaves me with 5 pounds left until I start maintenance. These last 10 pounds have made such a difference in my body and I can't wait until I reach my goal of 150-151!
CONGRATS AGAIN EVERYONE!!! :D

super close. i am at 214, i think my goal was 213. maybe by the end of the day i can see that number. i happened to weigh in after the gym, so i'll let the body cool down and hop on the scale later this afternoon.

Congrats mkendrick, lblazy, stargzr, and katie you all did fantastic!!

I was wondering what the next challenge should be? I think there's already a 4th of July Challenge but I was thinking maybe a Memorial Day Challenge (May 31)? Let me know if anyone would be interested!

Didn't quite make it.. did lose 6lbs. though. Too many cheats :(

Congrats to everyone who made it! Going to find a new one to join!
