Everyone is doing so well on the V-day challenge. I'm jealous... although I weighed in today and I was down another 2 lbs! Have fun in Vegas. I went in July with my best friend and we had so much fun!

It's good to see everyone doing so well! I am still on track, since starting the challenge on Jan 13th I have lost 2 pounds so I am pretty happy about that

Hi, this is my first post since i joined. I am trying to lose 10 lbs for the valentine's day challenge. I really need to lose 75 lbs. but i figured if I just start small and work from there. I used to belong to WW and lost 68 lbs and became a lifetime member. I gained all the weight back and have not been feeling really good about myself since. I started walking. Yesterday I walked for 1 mile on my treadmill it took me 24 min. My eating habits this past weekend were terrible. I guess I am nervous because I have to go for a biopsy this morning and i have been nervous all weekend about it. Tomorrow i will go walking at our local mall and get back on track. Good luck everyone.

Hello folks

Well, I weighed today and am down 1.5 lbs from last week, which is a good thing. I have lost 3 of my pledged 10 so far, fingers crossed I will have at least another pound gone next week.

What a day! Cold, cranky, too much work, would love to be downing a handful of M&Ms right about now...but I won't! I'll have some orange tea instead.

Way to go, Kygirl, liseyloo, blissful, chixyb, amity amd everybody

I'm waiting 'til the weekend to get on the scale again. I was getting too invested in the numbers, and not noticing how my clothes (or my achy knees) were feeling, which is much better than a few weeks ago.

Targetgirl, I can relate to how it feels to lose a lot and gain it back. I lost over 70 pounds a few years ago, thanks to intense focusing, writing everything down, and taking exercise really seriously. But I let life get in the way when I hit a plateau, and I've gained about 50 pounds back. I guess the big lesson for me was that "s-t" will always happen, and I have to learn how to keep it from being an excuse to let myself go. Good luck with your biopsy! I'll be thinking of you.

Bye, all!

Didn't know this post was here. Still navigating my way around. I did post on the original one, but here goes.

I started 1/2/04 am down 3.5 pounds. Would like to lose 4 more by VDAY

CanadianTracie · 01-19-2005, 06:52 PM

Well I am 2lbs closer to meeting my V-day challenge!! Yipee!!

Everyone else looks like they are doing well too! Keep up the good work everyone!

chocy963 · 01-20-2005, 10:57 AM

The last week has been really hectic. I haven't been careful about what I eat and I haven't been exercising. I gained three pounds back - Whaaaa! I know that when I do this they usually come back off pretty easily. And, it was only four or five days that I went off track, so I think I can recover pretty easily. I was afraid to come here and have to readjust my little tracker back up, but I know that the best way to get it together is to get some support.

So! Here I am... support me! LOL

TIA

Hey everyone, I started SBD on Jan 2nd. My weight loss goal for V'day is 165. Only 5 more pounds to go. I've been stuck at 170 for almost a week, so I'm going jogging today to add a little boost in the fat burning. Good luck too all of you and I know we can do this !

knittymomma · 01-20-2005, 11:27 PM

hey all! I would like to join this! I had a mini-vday goal of my own prior to joining so i guess I'm using this as support. I've already lost 11 lbs. and my goal is 15 lbs. Hopefully I can make it!
