  • Welcome, everyone! I'll get a list started today or tomorrow.

    In August, I lost half of what I needed to get back to my maintenance weight, so I'm aiming for the other half in September!

    Hello everyone!

    I'm new to the site and excited about it so far!

    My goal for the month is to get out of the 260's, out of the 250's and reach 249! That would be 12 lbs.!

  • Welcome back Slahti!

    OKLizzy and Tereh! Glad you joined us!

    Tuscany and Cheeri, a slight gain for me too. No worries!

    Muses, you'll beat that scale this month!

    Puft, we have to make sure our scales aren't conspiring, lol!

    Leah, yes, 3500 calories burning off or going on! Let's burn it off!

    Joy, good goal!
  • Hi all - first challenge here. My goal is to get into the 100s this month. Using bodymedia - but consistently losing slower than it predicts so trying to get more strict on myself.

    SW: 206.5
    GW: 198 (firmly in onederland for first time in 4+ years?!)

    Note I'm a little nervous about doing daily weigh-ins, might switch to weekly. Doing a lot of traveling and that seems to lead to water retention day after especially...

    01: 206.5
    02: 206.2
    03: 205.2
    04: 204.6
    05-10: Rough week with TOM and travel, did not weigh.
    11: 203.9 (back on track I hope!)
  • Wow we got to 3 pages quick!

    welcome to all the new faces and I'm glad to see everyone here from last month's challenge as well

    Superhero I am SURE you will make it to onederland for your birthday!

    Muses I adore your avatar!

    Ok, as I said earlier, I am aiming for 5.2 lbs and starting with thursdays weight since we ate out thurs and fri so I am retaining water right now.

  • Quote: Rhiko, I adore your avatar pic! I look at it and find myself saying, "Awww." It's just so sweet! So, you say you cut back on foods. Is it possible that you cut too far back on calories considering you're a runner? Or is it just right now?
    Sorry, I wasn't specific (which is not unusual of me lol). I got back into the habit of eating a block of chocolate per 2 weeks (actually, I think it was once a week?) and other bad foods like that. I've stopped looking at them in the supermarket again and wanting to have them. Also, because I'm still not losing after all the running I've done post-chocolate, I'm thinking it's my portion sizes that are getting too big again. Though, I'm not a fan of eating regularly anyway, so bigger portions mean I get to my calories lol

    Thanks for liking my avatar. That's my cat Neko The inspiration for my pseudonym Rhiko. Rhiannon (my first name) plus Neko.
  • Thanks Jaqui and Tuscany!
  • j0ndysse and VickiN!

    Pixikat, water weight seems to be a theme right now! We need the whoosh fairy!

    Rhiko, you sound like you are as big a cat lover as I am. I have three cats, 2 girls and a boy, and your Neko reminds me of my boy, Ichabod, not in looks (Ichabod is a black cat) but because of that expression. Ichabod is such a lover boy, lol!

  • I'm in! Glad to be back. This will be my first challange in over 3 months. Hopefully it will get me back on track in a hurry. I need the motivation of losing at a steady pace. I hope to lose 10.1 lbs this month as I am holding in several lbs of water and I would like to reach the 180's. My hands and feet are very swollen.

  • I'm also in! Ill shoot for another 8, I didn't make it last month but I'm gonna go at it harder this month!! Want to be 220 by Halloween. I think I am also going to start weighing twice a week. Tuesdays and Fridays. That will maybe give me a clue as to why I lose one week but don't do anything the next week.
