5 Pound Challenge #42
 
Here we go! It's challenge number 42!

Everyone is welcome, hop in at any time.

Here's what to do: We're out to lose 5 pounds. No matter where you're at in your weight loss, it's helpful to break down your loss into small goals like this. Just post your SW (starting weight) as of today, your CW (current weight) which is whenever you weigh in and your GW (goal weight) which is five pounds down from the day you joined in.

Weigh in whenever you like and come tell us about it! You can weigh in as often as you like - some of us do it everyday, some once or twice a week.

The first one to hit five pounds lost gets to start the next thread!

Let's do it! :high:

Whoo Barb! :) I'm at the inlaws today, so no scale. I'll weigh and post tomorrow.

I didn't weigh in today, but I'll weigh in tomorrow. I think this is just what I need. I have so much weight to lose, and it feels overwhelming. I haven't had a stellar beginning. I can't really picture myself eating the way I need to, being thin, having exercise be a regular part of my life. I'm not really sure what I'm doing, what the magic combination will be for the perfect food plan for me. Right now I'm just eating 1500 cal or less.

Anyway, I'm blathering on.

But 5 pounds. I can see that. I know how to get there. So I'm in.

I like this challenge, it is very motivating to have short term goals like this. I'll be posting my SW tomorrow. Congrats on your win!

Congratulations BarbPA!

SW: 144
CW: 144
GW: 139

I don't know if 144 even means anything. I weighed today and yesterday on my own scale, but at my sister's house. The first time I stepped on it it said 151. Finally it seemed to settle on 145 (yesterday) and 144 today, but I think that's probably higher than I would have weighed at home - but who knows :dizzy: I guess tomorrow (my first morning weighing on my scale on my own bathroom floor) will tell the tale :o

If eating ... generously ... once in a while is good for the metabolism, I'll do well ;) Unfortunately, I have Christmas #2 to attend tomorrow. But I have a sore throat and achies coming on, so I may beg off of making cookies tomorrow morning. We'll see.

I'm always envious of those people who need to "take off 5 lbs" I think "Wow, I wish I only had 5 lbs to lose, if only!" But this thread has made me realize, hey, we all lose it one pound at a time. This is thread #42, that's 210 lbs., that's really inspiring! So, I'm just going to take off 5 lbs ;) and if you don't mind, I think I'll try to get there first. :p See you on thread #43!

I'm so relieved to see the scale back down (even if not to baseline), but I'm still nervous about what the next couple days will do. I have Christmas #2 to do today, and lunch is to be "light" so we can "focus on dessert" :o
