I may just reach my halloween goal by Christmas

A week to go and I have 11 pounds to lose!! Oh well I will try harder next time!!

I think I'm actually heavier now than the start of the challenge

Well, I didn't make goal. Just barely but none-the less I am 1 1/2 lbs from goal. This has been a hard battle but I am still OP, 100 oz. water and right now I am working hard on two Afgans for my Great niece and nephew for Christmas. My hands aren't quite what they used to be so I am slower but still get the job done. I wanted to give them something I made that would still be here long after I am not. I made one for my Dad over thirty years ago and it is still being used by Mom and looks beautiful. I want to give the kids something Like that will last for many, many years and hopefully everytime they wrap up in them it will be like a hug from me.

Pam whooo hooo so what that you did not hit goal you lost!! that is better than gaining, you strived so hard to get there!!!

me i started at 178 size 16's i wore 14's all day yesterday (small ones) but i wore then and i have 14's on today. my weight of 20 down did not quite fly i had such a hard time staying op for a while i am not suprised, I was 176.5 today, only a 1.5 loss from the start but i fluxuated so i must have lost 20 it was just the same pounds!!!

I am not unhappy with my performance. I lost in size, and stayed through my exercise program, i started to run again, i am doing 18 out of 30 on the treadmill!! at 6 mph i uped my calorie buerning to 500 min a day of cardio which meant about 45 min of hard cardio, so that is an imporvement, so all in all this was a success. it did not reach goal but i acchieved forward progress dispite some back slides and have overcome my slides!!!

Well Hello everyone!!

Well after a couple of revisions I made it into the "30's". I was 239 last Friday. Maintained my woe and water and did much better working out.

Congrats to all the losers, maintainers and everybody else

Congratulations to everyone who made their Halloween goal! It's great to hear how well everyone is doing.

Unfortunately, I missed mine by one measley pound... but we all know that one pound can actually mean quite a lot at times!!!

Still, although my loss is slowing right down, I've now lost 79.5lbs (1.5 this week). I'm two thirds of the way to goal, and the final third is going to be the hardest of all, especially now it's so cold and I just want to curl up in the evenings and eat more!!!! I do know I have to keep on going, just like the little old tortoise... plod, plod, plod...

Here's to our Christmas goals, and those lovely new outfits!!
