Congrats PhotoChick! That was really fast!
I can't believe this is challenge 25 already, that's 125 lbs lost by the winners alone, that's a person.

SW: 230.5
CW: 230.5
GW: 225.5 (so, so close to my first mini goal)

Ooh, congrats PhotoChick!

Quillie - I started these challenges at #5 (in April), and it's fun to look back and see where I started! Although I have yet to win one, which may be some kind of a record. :lol:

I have to say that these challenges have been the best for helping me to see actual progress. I'm not trying to win any speed records in losing, but it is sometimes frustrating to look at my daily weight graph and see all the ups and downs.

But every time I start a new challenge, I can see where my goal weight is lower than the time before - even if just by a little. It's a nice little boost.

And 5# is so achievable, too, so that helps a lot.

Thanks for starting the challenges, Jessica! :)

Wow, I am just heading into weight territory that seems so foreign :D! Not that I haven't been there, it's just been a long time. Size 12 has to be here somewhere <looking around ;)>

Oh, I didn't start the challenges (although I wish I could take credit for that ;)). I just meant that my first challenge was #5, and it's fun to see how far I've come from there.

I feel the same way about them as you do, though. I think these challenges and the Biggest Loser challenges have been vital to my weight loss success thus far.

So thanks to all you lovelies, basically! :D

OK chickies I am in! I weigh in on Sundays will that matter? I would feel like I jinked myself if I weighed during the week or I could start my CW on Sunday the 7th? Please let me know

Well done Photochick!

Just wanted to check in and say I haven't fallen off the face of the earth! But I have been ill this week - got a sudden cold bug that hit me hard and it's hard to diet while you're ill and your body is crying out for nourishment to fight the bug.

So, while I haven't gone mad, I have been listening to my body and feeding it a little more. I will weigh tomorrow and join the challenge then.

I am feeling better now though, although I still have a sore throat.

Congrats photo chick!
I will be weighing in tomorrow.. gotta find scale! At my fiture inlaws rushing arund before the wedding :)

I fell lost when im not on the board posting regularly.. can't wait till a couple week from now when im actually in my own apartment and back on track!

Up a bit this morning from yesterday.

156.8

I haven't been watching what I am eating or working out so I am kinda happy that I haven't put back on toooo much. I was stuck at 155 for the longest so this is good.

robsia-hope you feel better soon...just got over one myself!

Faux- you have soooo much going....but everything is so exciting! Keep strong!

Ok! I'm in today.. I found a scale of my fiance's mom's. It's not very accurate and sort of has a mind of it's own. I miss my scale at home :( hehe ANYWAY.. I stodd on and off of it like 10 times and I think it was at about 277. So i have gained about 2 pounds.. but that's not bad for traveling around and eating ' travelling food for the past two weeks.

so..
