I'm in. Lost ten over the summer, so this would be the next step (right before marathon training first week of November.)
Current weight 09/05/12: 136
Goal weight 11/02/12: 128
That would be a pound a week.
After that, would love to maintain 128-130 for the foreseeable future.
I want to go with today's weight since the next two days won't be the norm:
Weight on 9/5: 129.8 :)
Desired weight: 125
As I get decrease my body fat percentage I will start to consider how low is reasonable. I will also be working this winter to build muscle - I am actually more concerned with changing my body composition than seeing how low I can go. Those seem contradictory goals - but I am also only 5'3...
OK
official starting weight: 104.4
Goal: (this is kind of vague) consistent weight of 103-104 every day.
Although the upper end of my weight range (107) is lower than when I started the challenge in January, (it was 110), I just want it to be more even every day. I do eat more on the weekends, and I'm probably not going to stop eating out, but I was able to moderate my choices last winter.
Does this make sense? I've come to the conclusion it's easier for me to maintain my weight when it's not the peak of the cyling or x country ski season.
128 this morning. Although the scale says I'm heavier, I look and feel skinnier, so I'll take it.
Congratulations on breaking 130!Quote:

132 this morning. Goal is 128.
Thanks, considering I've been swinging between 133-136 for over a year...well I am happy :) That was the other day, and I am up today but only 2/10ths of a pound. I am not going to quibble over that - yesterday was unusual which is why I wanted Wed morning to be my official "weigh in" for this challenge.Quote:

159.6 on Friday morning. Goal for this week is 158.5.
Thanks!
135 this morning, on way to 128ish.
For now I will weigh in on Wed rather than Fridays, at least for a few weeks.
130.1 this week
I'm struggling. Of course, as soon as I join the challenge again, my weight is up, and I've been having various and assorted autoimmune symptoms, which makes me want comfort food. I haven't been eating more, just not as strictly.
I'm not reporting in until Friday, but since I went to the beach on Sunday and ate fried scallops and onion rings, I gained 2.5 lbs., lost half a pound and now am stuck.
Oops, my goal for the end of the CHALLENGE is: 151Quote:

Last year this time we were getting some rain and cooler mornings, but this year, it's steaming hot and sunny every morning. 83.5F with FULL sun when I got up at 6:45, and gets rapidly hotter after that. DH is still running, but I just can't do it. I'm weak!Quote:
