Welcome everyone! It's never too late to join!

angeluv, I too have not been around for a few month and am trying to get re-motivated. We can do this!

How was everyone's weekend? We went to the state fair yesterday and then had a cookout to watch college football (both my Oklahoma teams won!) so I didn't do very good diet-wise yesterday. Oh well, back on track today!

[angeluv]

@fashinjunkie09 - thanks for the support.

my weekend was okay..i went to my friends' baby baptism. it was really beautiful and sweet but they had a get together at thier house afterwards. they had homemade pizza..how was i supposed to resist that? i had three pieces it was soo good. i'm hoping to have a good start this week and aim to be down at least 1lb by next sunday.

I would love to join this challenge. I have an end of the year goal and this will help me stay accountable. I'm gonna weigh in on Thursdays and my goal is 172 (about 12 pounds).

Good luck everyone!

I am SOO in! Thanksgiving is the next time I will see my family, and it would be nice to be a little (or a lot) smaller by then. I'll make a goal of 2lbs/week.

Hi everyone!! I ended last week with a not so good bang. Ugh. Starting out this week with a cold!! ugh going to work out in the morning and get back on my plan.
week 2: 161

how can I stick to plan??

[steinanwine]

Dont give up Andrbeck! Stay on plan because Thanksgiving will be here any minute!! Drink a ton of water and a lot of soup and get rest. Maybe just walk at the gym on the treadmill so you don't totally exhaust yourself and run yourself down worse!! Plus vitamin D!

Looking forward to weigh in day tomorrow! Just hope the scale shows a loss from last week - and actually not so certain it will show a loss so not so sure WHY I am looking forward to weigh in! I guess the prospect of being happy - will just have to deal with the fall out if the scale isn't down at least a little .... Hope everyone else is staying strong! Thanksgiving will be here before we know it!

[Panacea86]

My weigh ins will be on Saturday mornings, as they always are, so I will be a little off. Just works out best for me to get an accurate read.

I lost three lbs two weeks ago, and about 1lb last week...which is the most weight loss I've had in a LOOONG time. I would really love another 1lb loss this week *crosses fingers*

[OhThePlaces]

This is exactly what I need! I have a lot of extra motivation because the weekend before Thanksgiving, I will be taking a two day instructor training for an exercise class I will begin teaching in the spring. I want to be as fit as possible at that time! Unfortunately I have TWO vacations in October, so it's not going to be easy. I've been sticking to 134ish for the last few weeks and I'm ready to bust through this plateau!

I have been on plan. I havent gone to the bathroom in a few days and I havent been drinking as much water as I normally do. I hope this is the reason. :/

So glad the scale is down, I was CERTAIN it would be up. I could just feel it! Well very glad I was wrong. The challenge to lose 13 by Thanksgiving is ON! I'm ready to kick butt! We can reach out goals everyone!!

[fashinjunkie09]

Welcome ladies! Good luck we can do this!

170starting, I am sure that's what it is. As soon as you become more regular you will drop like two lbs immediately! Good luck girl, don't let it get you down. You are doing great!

steinanwein, yay for the loss! We can definitely do this!!

Not quite as much as I was hoping for but still good considering my whole weekend was off-plan.

Also, I re-arranged my weekly loss chart because I realized that if I put my starting weight on week 1, then it would look like there are 10 weeks in the challenge since it's ending around the 23rd.

I hope everyone is doing well and has a good weigh-in!
