I went back to Weight Watchers yesterday (after 2 years "off" and a 30-lb. weight gain!!

) and am ready to start "fresh" today.

I'd like to join the 4th of July challenge!!

My goal is to lose 1 1/2 pound each week, for a total of about 8 lbs.

I know that isn't much, but it's better than gaining, if I can do it!

Thanks, Cheryl

Cheryl I am glad that you went back to ww. It is a good program.

Just putting in my 2 cents.....I would like to lose 5 pounds by July 4. I stayed the same last challenge but I feel I lost weight. It just shifted around with all the weights that I am doing at the gym.

I am trying to lose some pounds but the scale is not budging. It has been that way for a few weeks now. I know that I am building some muscle but please let the scale go down.

June 1 - 128 lbs. Gained 1 lb, but that's okay. Maintaining to me means going up and down by 3 lbs. during the month!!

Sunday June 1st:

Well the scales wasn't good to me! I GAINED 1 lb!!

Could it be building muscle from walking? My eating hasn't changed and all I drink is WATER!!! Oh well...maybe next week!

March 17th: 191
June 1st: 173

18 lbs. down

4th of July Goal: 10 lbs!!!!

Sherry - Don't worry! You're about due for a plateau that will last a week or two. If you don't lose next week, rachet your exercise up a notch to throw your body off. It's getting comfortable.

Put me down for 10 pounds girls. I have basically stayed the same over the past two challenges due to my lack of motivation and the "I don't care" attitude.

Sher: I bet with all of the running around and wedding yesterday, you didn't drink as much water as usual. "Kick it up a notch" and drink more water this week. I bet you will drop the pound plus more! It's my understanding too, that when you exercise, the muscle will retain fluid, appearing like a weight gain on the scale.

Cheryl: Good luch with WW's!!!

Shelley: You are doing FANTASTIC maintaining!

Best of luck to everyone!!!

Weigh-in day: Up 3 lbs. to 223. I attribute most of it to the fact that I lost 5 last week. Usually if I have an overly-large loss, I have a gain the next week.

I would like to lose 2 of it this week, though, and 2 next. That will put me one pound shy of my birthday goal, but I will be okay with that.
