Between traveling and my TOM, I'm not sure where my weight is this week. I've been enjoying a lot of the German cuisine, but also walking a lot. I'm not worried about it though. If I don't make this challenge, I'll make the next one.

Back down to my lowest weight so far. Would be nice to wrap this challenge up with a little loss next week. Fingers crossed.

04.06.15 - 223lb
04.13.15 - 220lb
04.20.15 - 217lb
04.27.15 - 215lb
05.04.15 - 213lb

So pleased with this, because this week included going away for the weekend for my 30th birthday. Had three amazing meals out in restaurants where I just chose the 'best' possible thing then ate it without worrying, and also had a few drinks....still down for the week is a great thing to see. Previously that would have been me, not just off the wagon but burning the wagon with a flamethrower. HOPE that means I've got the right attitude this time. Still going for the goal at the end of the week of 209lb......go self!

Hope you're all doing well x

I'm not sure how that happened, but I stepped on the scales at 221!

Some good losses this week!! Congrats to all!
I went down a little over a pound. Little by little, I guess!

Totally! Right direction is right direction, always great for the psychological boost even if it's not your biggest drop.


That's REALLY good - well done! You must have had a brilliant surprise

End Weight 05/11/2015:

Sorry I have been MIA for a while. Vacation plus dealing with end of the semester deadlines (I am taking 2 classes to get into a LVN-RN bridge program) has made life crazy !! While it is frustrating is to see increases on the scale, the decreases in the measurements tell me I am still on the right track and eventually the scale will catch up.

Happy Mother's Day, all the mums

Today's weigh-in finishes the challenge for me. 209 was my goal:

04.06.15 - 223lb
04.13.15 - 220lb

04.27.15 - 215lb

First challenge loss -14.5lb.

Very pleased... has definitely helped me to know I 'have' to post here on a Monday morning - provided some more motivation. Thank you!

Happy Mother's Day everyone! I'm pretty happy with this result. I'm at the point in my weight loss where losses are a lot less linear. I average about a half to three quarters of a lb per week now. These challenges really help me to see that these little ups and down are pushing my weight down over time.

I didn't reach goal, but I still lost so that is a win in my book!!

Absolutely. Someone who knows what it should be called/what the dates are, fire that thing up
