Labor Day Challenge
Hi there-
Hope it's okay that I am jumping in! I just recently joined the site and I am looking forward to losing along with all of you! I am jumping right into Induction and I am hoping to lose 24 pounds by Labor Day. Since I am starting with Induction, I feel like that's pretty reasonable. So- here goes! SW: 214 GW: 190 Kate |

And I wish you good luck with the challenge. YOU CAN DO IT!!!:broc: OneReallyBigBird |
:welcome2: Katebp ! Very glad to have you join us on this crazy but wonderful journey that we all are on! lol With Induction just starting you should lose like nuts! :) Can't wait to see your ticker when you get it in a month) going down too! We like it when it moves to the right cha cha cha!
:welcome2: Cherrychan!! to you too! Glad you have joined here also! YAY!!! and your ticker too going to the right (need to have 20 posts and be here a month) :) Woo Hoo new happy positive people! OneReally thank you right back! I love having a bunch of "newer" people join as it helps jump start my battery too! I, on the other hand, Have a Death Wish out for the WATER FAIRY... Somehow she tapped me on the head and inserted 3 pounds of water inside me? I was a good girl yesterday (did have 6 very small sugar free cookies from Josephs - bad I know.. had a stressful day at work) but 2 (1 inch) cookies = 1 lb of water REALLY???????? ARGH and GRRRRRRR |

Don't let a tiny snack slip get you down. Your posts here keep me motivated, and I know you will bounce back and keep losing those pounds. Hang in there!!! CW-615 GW-595 7/11-606 7/12-605 |
Ok, I'm back and recovered from that intense weekend of dancing in NYC. Ready to recommit to another challenge.

CW 191 GW 178 Happy Saturday!!! Well into my regular pattern of holding. Hoping to see the 180s sometime soon! My sister is very encouraging - she says I need to look at it as maintaing in the 190 s for an extended period of time instead of not losing. She really thinks a slow loss is better - so back to enjoying the journey! She has already lost all her pregnancy weight plus some! And the baby was just born 5 weeks ago! I'll probably reach my goal by the time my nephew is 18 years old!! Just kidding! |
LULU... lol I think your sister is right! Slow and steady wins the race (at least that fable says that) LOL tho seeing some people on this forum lose lbs every day just (IAN) blows my mind! But I think maybe our bodies just adjust to being at a different level and maybe our mind is sitting still trying to cope with the changes that had happened. Shoot I am still 100+ over my goal and I have major stalls too. It just happens. Baby weight.. well that was pretty much fast on.... floating around and fast off (Hormones too have a hand in that loss). Lulu you are doing GREAT! Wasn't it May that you were in the 200's? and look.. you are on the doorstep of the 180's Pretty awesome!!
Me.. I lost 1 lb of my overnight water weight 3 lb gain surprise... just 1. but my joints are really swollen today.. so lots of water still hiding... Wish I could find it and banish it! LOL I know it will go away! Have a WONDERFUL and HILARIOUS Day everyone! |
