I haven't weighed in lately, at last check, I had lost ONE pound....not too bad. But I also haven't had any coffee or cream!!! It's too funny, at work, I'm the one who always makes the new pot and it just beckons me, all full and fresh and aromatic....but lately, I've been to busy at work to stop and drink it anyways. Been to the gym three days this week and think I can go again today, after I take DS to bumper bowling...it is too funny to watch. OMG I just heard this week that MY trainer at the gym is LEAVING! Kinda broke my heart!

The alcohol thing....haven't had a drink yet....but haven't been to my bowling league, which is tonight! (I worked through last weeks) So TONIGHT will be my true test!

You guys are doing AWESOME! Keep it up! :smug:

My weight is still the same, I can't believe how fast you all lose weight, it can take me weeks just to drop a pound. I am eating so much less than I used to and eat hardly any junk food at all anymore. I walk at least 200 minutes a week and still it takes a minor miracle for me to lose a pound. Maybe I need to up the exercise but with how little I am eating now I can really see maintenance being a problem. Anyway no snacking on Halloween candy since my binge last weekend. and I have been sick this week so my calories have been really low but still no weight loss.

Down two!! Yipeeee! 3 to go..........

I too can't believe how fast some of you lose weight. You've all almost hit your goals for Halloween after only one week, and I'm still trying to lose a measly pound! Ugh...it can get a little frustrating.

My challenges are going okay. I've had pop the last two days now. Gotta get back on track with that. Maybe on weekends for a while I'll treat myself to one or two (8-oz. cans)? I dunno, we'll see. Snacking after school, well, it's the weekend so there's no school, but I'm still trying to limit snacking. That's going good cuz I'm so busy with other stuff I don't even think about snacking.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend girls! :)

i actually am back up to 163.5. I'm hoping it's my period because i went from 159 to 163.5 over night, ahhh

hello everyone sorry i wasnt here sooner. having computer trouble it seems. all better now. anyways i wouldnt get to hard on yourself at my TOM i always seem to show 2 to 4lbs higher on the scale its sad really then at the end i seem to drop from 4 to 6 depending on what i showed a gain. Like last month i showed 179 and got period and went to 182 but after period i droped to 177 afterwards. so it really is probably just bloating and water weight. although its depressing to see it up there and go up instead of down or not move it will move again. i am puffy now and im sure ill start now that i started this challenge so ill get frustrated and have to wait to see a difference til the end of the challenge lol. Good luck everyone and hope you all meet your goals.

:) I also have just 1lb left-but now's the time the Halloween treats start to be everywhere, so I sure hope I can hold on! I've done really well with not eating any of my kids food-and I really think that's making all the difference-I wish I'd realized sooner how much and often I was sneaking bites of there's while cooking and clearing the table!!Good luck all!

I'm really happy, it was just peroid/water weight. This morning i'm down to 158.5lbs!!!!!

That's great, Amber! I hate TOM. Between cravings and water weight, I'm just miserable for about a week and a half out of every month. *sigh*

yeah this one was BAD, seriously i think this was the worst peroid of my life.

Well i'm still at 158.5 but at least i haven't gained lol I was bad though.....I wasn't supost to drink any alcohol and i did really good, but last night my hubby bough me a bottle of wine and i drank it............yes the whole bottle.......woops That REALLY added to my calories for yesterday lol Today was a new day though and i wont drink anymore lol

Well i weighed in yesterday and was 168 and i should have left it alone until the end of the week but i was just curious and i weighed myself today and was 172 wonder if its water weight. hrm cause thats a big jump for one day and i didnt eat alot from one weigh in to the next i kept within my calories but was low on water intake hmm. any suggestions. guess its a wait and see i hated seeing back above 170 sigh...ah well

I lost 4 pounds. I just take the weight off slowly, I guess.

well im sorry i havent been able to post before now i have been so busy the last two days. congrats to everyone weather you lost or not you attempted to do so and that is what count. I weighed in on tuesday morning and lost a total of 7.8lbs so thats a great lost im proud of myself. I have been working so hard. i have only 16lbs to go for my end of year/christmas goal. so lets see if we can get there. and only 26lbs more til i hit my goal and although that doesnt sound like alot of lbs i have to rethink whwere i started i was 208lbs at the start im at 166 now *yeye* and i want to be about 140. so from 208 to 140 that is a giant goal in the end and a huge loss of 68lbs in the end and for me that is huge. I cant believe i have gotten down 42lbs now. i would always get 5 to 10lbs and then gain it back and now its just staying gone. I hope to hit my total goal by the time my youngest turns two wich is feb. 15th. hopefully i can do it a week or so before so i can supprise my hubby for vday. well see. good luck with the next goals you all have.
