This is the 11th version of the 5lb Challenge!

As always the first person who loses 5 pounds will win this challenge and get to start the next challenge thread!

Everyone is more than welcome to join! The more who post to the challenge, the merrier! Will you be the next 5lb loser?

Everyone's starting weights are attached. If you joined yesterday I may not have gotten you see attachment:

Hey girls - missed you bunches today! Man didn't realize how much I was on here until I didn't have it .

I weighed in at 220.8 (-3.4) this am - omg I can't wait until that's under 220 - they've been around too long!!

I went to a free community yoga class tonight. It was Bikram Yoga that's done in a room between 95-105 degrees. I didn't know this before I went. I couldn't deal and left 30 minutes in. I couldn't stay still on the mat because of all the sweating. I hate giving up but it was gross and I started getting very dizzy. I love yoga but not like that!

Okay, so we are basically continuing on in the same challenge, versus starting new today, right?

Starting weigh: 174.2
Current weight: 169.6 (-4.6, .4 to go)
Goal weight: 169.2

My husband thinks Bikram Yoga is cool, but I hated the heat. I spent the whole time totally miserable.

You're almost out of the 220s, yaaaay!!! I love changing decades!

Yeah I figured why not since I had the info for updates anyway.

Yes I was miserable. I sweat like a big fat hairy man anyway - don't need the help thank ya very much!

You're officially out of the 170's woot woot!

Oh and new favorite Vegan with a Vengeance menu - Spinach and Oregano Millet Polenta with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto. Just buy the book!

Woo hoo! We're back!

I felt seriously lost this morning when I tried checking in.

I've never tried yoga of any type, but I'm not sure I'd like sweaty yoga.

Have a great night!

I was at 157.6 this morning. I've been bouncing up and down all week because it's senior week at my school, so there's some kind of celebratory meal or drinking extravaganza every 5 seconds, but hopefully everything will settle down soon and I can get fully back on track.

Well I'm back at 167 today ... which is what I started the challenge at. TOM is winding down and I took the last of the Prednisone for the pneumonia today. Thank heavens. I know that the Pred is making me retain water (not to mention playing merry **** with my appetite!).

So officially, as of today:

SW: 167
CW: 167
GW: 162

(And I should change my ticker, but I'm not going to. I was actually officially down to 164 on Monday, so I know it's just a TOM swing and the meds! That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it. If I'm still up on Monday, which is my official weigh-in day, then I guess I'll bite the bullet and change it! )

.

Count me in!

Start: 203
Current: 203
Goal: 198

202.8, gonna try to shake it up over the next few weeks as im not doing to good am i!

Down again today. Josephine and I are fighting for this one!

SW: 158
CW: 153.4 (down 4.4, 0.4 to go)
GW: 153

Oooo, tight competition! I ever-so-briefly saw 169.4 on the scale before it said 169.6 and stayed there. So I stayed the same today, arrrgh!

Starting weigh: 174.2
Current weight: 169.6 (-4.6, .4 to go)
Goal weight: 169.2

According to my beautiful scale (lol), I'm down 2.5 from yesterday.

So:

SW: 203
CW: 200.5
GW: 198

219.0 this AM ladies for 5.2lbs lost!!! Maybe all that sweating in a hot a$$ room is good for you!! This is also 20lbs lost since I began on here in April

This one was close! I'll start #12 and hopefully no more lost posts and forums!
