Scale went up a little this morning, but if it goes back within the next couple days, I'll revise my start weight.

These go by faster than the regular 5 pound challenges, just with our natural weight fluctuations. TOM is visiting, so, I'm up. Maybe we can change featherweight challenge to 4 pounds?

I join in the 5 lb challenges too so I'm up for this one - I might actually stand a chance of winning one of these.

I've been in Portugal for two weeks and put on 6 lbs while I was out there (which I've started losing already).

So I'm starting at 150.

Welcome back Robsia! I didnt know you were in Portugal, I've been wandering where you are! Good luck :D

today's weight is 153, so I'm on my way!

iriswhispers 08-05-2008 02:08 PM

congrats sue!

i love the idea of the challenge only being 2 lbs, its seems so reasonable - although i will admit i can easily fluctuate that much in a day or so.

oooo i'm itching to get back in the 120's! i'm so close to goal!!

I've been thinking about this too--since I know my weight fluctuates with TOM, I usually use my most recent low as my start weight. I weighed 137 on the weekend, but this morning was up 2.5 pounds from that. (Stupid TOM, why do you always make me feel fat?!?) However, I know it's all water weight, so I'm not counting going back down to 137 as losing 2 pounds, you know?

So: maybe I'd be willing to compromise--how about 3 pounds instead? Four could take me 3 or 4 weeks to lose--I'd never win! :carrot:

Spoz 08-06-2008 03:08 AM

Or maybe we could just make the challenge a week long? Although somebody will lose the 2lb faster and still start the next thread it gives us all more time hit our targets...

Argh, scale is back up today. 158.1

But I can't complain...three days at current weight! Longest time sub 150 since the early 70's!

I can't believe it, I did it!

I'll start the new thread this evening, but everybody give me your opinion: Should we make this a 3 or 4 pound challenge? Do we put a one week time limit on it, and whoever loses the most weight starts the new one? (Good idea Spoz!)

kittycat40 08-06-2008 09:39 AM

err, no change in weight today either. My calories are right where I want them but my food choices are deteriorating. Why must I learn and relearn what works for me and what will never work for me???

I am ok with whatever the group majority wants for these challenge terms. I just want a loss, don't care where I post it ;)

alinnell 08-06-2008 11:40 AM

Dang! I'm up today. Now I have to lose 2.5 pounds. Hopefully it is just water retention from my workout yesterday.

Robsia 08-06-2008 12:17 PM

Well, I don't think there should be a time limit - otherwise what is the point of having a weight goal - why not just say who lost most at the end of the week gets to start the new thread if you're going to do it that way.

But perhaps 3 is better.

But I will go along with whatever - just giving my opinion ;)
