I'm so lucky, if I ever go out, i can always bring a box home without feeling guilty. I rarely eat left overs, but i have to human garbage disposals living with me (my brother and husband). They will gladly finish anything i wont lol.

And on another note 129.8 today!! yaaay!

On a very sad not, that is in no way related... MY Grandpa, who is my hero, passed away today =( I was kind of hoping he would live forever.

Since I've always been heavy, I was always more the 'fat friend' than the one someone was attracted to (except for the few who like bigger women, yikes.) But I do notice that men are far more attentive and look at me more...sooo strange. I am with Riestrella, though....enjoy it!!!!

And aware210: I am so very, very sorry to hear about your grandfather. My best to you and your family.

I'm so sorry, aware. My condolences to your family...

And I agree with what everyone has said! The past few weekends I've had men staring at me/talking to me/dancing with me left and right. I am most certainly enjoying it but it's strange at the same time LOL.

I ate pizza and ice cream for lunch today. :( There's no healthy food in my parent's house; I need to go shopping! I did run my intervals today (that I was supposed to do yesterday...) so I also have a 2.5 mile run to do tonight. Not too bad, but it sucks to do anything the same day as my intervals.

The lunch of champions! :lol:

I'd like to join - I put myself in at the bottom, rather than alphabetically, (because I didn't want to mess with your color coding.) I hope that was the right thing to do!

aware210- I'm so sorry about your grandfather. :(

MusicalAstronaut- bahahaha that lunch sounds amazing. xD I opted for subway today. Was debating between that and a burger since I only eat fast food once a week...I had just got finished at the gym so subway won :(

Lezza155- welcome :)

Paja - I'm glad I'm not the only one! But we're better off for throwing it away. I gained 0.2 lbs from eating half a pizza then when I threw it out and ate healthy I ended up losing 0.8 lbs! Amazing how much junk food can affect your weight.

aware - :hug: I'm sorry for your loss, it's easy to forget that life isn't forever, but it doesn't make it any less special. Treasure all the memories and the influences he had on your life.

Leeza - That's fine, I'll sort the colour pattern out soon enough!

I love a challenge! But I fear I set my goal to high, anyone else think going from 229 to 150 by the end of June is too ambitious?

In a word: Yes.

Ah, well, it was delicious to eat. *nom* But I punished myself for it later by going running in the freezing wind! I was like, you are not skipping today, missy.

Musical Astronaut - ahah I know how that feels, I ate some pita with all that sauce the other day, so I decided to skip the bus and go for a 5/6 km walk back to the train stations, just to compensate ^^
I actually liked it and it didn't take all that long, about an hour and ten minutes or so.. (:

My first few days since joining the challenge have been pretty OP. See a slow and steady decline in the daily weighing (watch out competition ;) just joking). But really, its exciting to be staying on plan and seeing some results. Can't wait to see wha sticks around as lost next wednesday.
It looks like alot of you chickies are really doing great. This is why challenges can be so wonderful.

alliecat- If you started right at the beginning of the competition then you need to average 3.15 lbs a week to see that much weightloss. Since weightloss sometimes slows when you get closer to your goal (less pounds to lose the harder they can be to take off sometimes) Plus you may see a plateau a time or two. Anyways its definitely VERY ambitious. But I don't see why having high goals is so bad. Just as long as your ready to shoot under target. If not hitting your goals makes you want to give up, then definitely make your goal more attainable. But if its just extra motivation to aim so high. And if you will be happy with anyloss, even sub goal loss. Then keep reaching for the stars ;).

Thanks to Riestrella, I'm added to the chart and I am ready to go!
I'm really excited now. Hope I can stay on plan and lose those pounds!

Exciting news - even after my lunch of champions yesterday, my 2 workouts paid off! I weighed in just under 185 this morning. :D

Also I've changed my ultimate goal. Not for this challenge but in the long run. Bumping it down from 145 to 135. O.o Nervous! Haha! But I think it will be better for my height/frame. My sister is 3 inches taller than me and is perfect at 145. So I think I could go about ten less than her. What do you guys think?
