Well, I wasn't going to post today as I had an overnight gain after a bit of a bread binge last night!! But what the heck - I'll take it as my new starting weight - at least it should come off quickly.

Still fighting with the 230s here. I had a rough few days with dinners out and late night snacking. Ugh. I think my head is back on straight! :dizzy:

SW: 234.2

I leave for vacation next Wed and need to be perfectly on plan before I go!! :sunny:

Hi ALL,

I will have recheck that goal weight but I think it is around the 140lbs.

Be good, cheers from Jenny

This mini challenge is...you put your SW as what your weight is TODAY. Then your CW and subtract 5# from your SW to get your GW. So your stats would be:

SW: 186
CW: 186
GW: 181

The first person to lose 5 lbs starts a new thread.

SW- 186.6
GW- 181.6 Boy is that music to my ears. Don't think I'll get there this time, but it sounds good.

SW: 134.4
CW: 134 (-0.4)
GW: 129.4

How a bag of jelly babies and 2 buttered bread rolls can put me up from 132.8 to 134.4 I don't know - but it's coming down slowly.

Running this afternoon - yay!!

Sw: 209.2
cw: 208.2
Gw: 204.2

Thanks for all the congrats everyone!!! :D I'm just on :cloud9: ! I have just been putting off losing weight for so long. I forgot how EASY it could really be! :carrot: I'm not depriving myself of things I like, but I am learning portion control and to have healthier versions of the things I love. I'm working out 1 to 1 1/2 hours a day...and I feel sooo good! I have energy, and my pants are already feeling looser...and it has only been a short time.

I know the weight will eventually stop coming off as fast as it has been, but I hope that when it does I don't get discouraged and quit......that is what usually happened in the past....I will need you all to :kickbutt: if that happens...LOL!

Okay...so sorry for rambling....here are my stats today

DELPHI hi back at ya !!!!!!! Look at you just going through those pounds! So close to onederland! I am so proud of you.


MS. PERCEPTION~my kids are outta school for the summer and keeping me totally busy so far ALREADY! hehehe~ although I do try to stay in the cc ~calorie counters~ Challenges(were on the cc 4th of July Challenge right now) But just haven't got to be on here(the site) as much as usual from my kids summer break.
I am sure there helping me lose weight though LOL~running me everywhere.
There Great Kids though ~So I am thrilled to spend summers with them With no school interuptions~but will also be thrilled to see the school bus again In august LOL!
My daughter is 16 and I have 2 sons ages ~11 & 8
So There a handful~as I type there fighting & singing together LOL
There playing American Idol karaoke revolution On the ps2, They do fine together~ then they fight~ then they do fine~ and fight again.haha
it's approx. 95 degrees here in OHIO so It's too hot for outdoors~were having a relaxing air conditioning day.(Other than the fighting~hahaha)
I will try to keep up with the 5lbs challenges the rest of the summer because I miss everyone in them ~I have never won one but I try like crazy LOL.
It's great to see everyone is losing so well. Makes me feel more confident.
Sorry for being blabby everyone~
Will Type again soon with hopefully some weight loss for this challenge.
Not checking for typing errors so bear with me everyone.

Oh nearly forgot ~speaking of pictures ms. perception~Yours is Precious As always~'THE MILLION DOLLAR SMILE!"

Jacque9999 SO PROUD OF YOU!!!!

Hi ladies :wave: I'm still up and I'm finding it hard to eat right during the summer. Trying to keep my daughter busy and she wants to eat at all those places I have a hard time picking healthy choices. I'm ready for her to go back to school :lol: No I'm enjoying the time with her but she makes me fat :)

You'll get there!!!

Thanks so, so much!!!! I don't think I need to be in this challenge since I will never win again. Not that that was the main reason I was in it to begin with but I would eventually like to see 125 but won't try for that until I get to 130. These last 2 will be hard to get rid of...it will be a real challenge to get rid of 5 more.


:thanks:

I'm up a pound today...it has to be water weight or TOM approaching cause I have been POP with extra exercise!!!
