    Thanks again for doing all this, Posse!! I SO appreciate the "public" accountability and comraderie of doing this with others.
    I'm in!
    I weighed today since I will be out of town tomorrow.

    159.5
    Goal weight at the end of August: 155
    Cholesterol goal: 175


    I'm not actively trying to lose weight (although I need to- I'm just SO over dieting at this age), I'm just eating better and continuing to workout at least an hour a day.

    Friday, July 7: First time since I have been maintaining my weight (seven months) that I have decided that I've gained a couple of pounds: 106 is today's weight. Goal is 104.

    I'm new to the forum, but my weight this morning was 154.0. That's 46 lbs lost for me. My goal is 1lb a week until I hit 130.

    Possegal, would you add me in to the challenge even though you're halfway through this session?

    143.5 this a.m. 138 would be a reasonable goal for 8/31.

    After dinking around all year, I finally started tracking my points again in WW. Seems that without that accountability, my weight creeps inexorably upwards. I'd like to get back into my skinny clothes again!

    Thanks!

    Folks are more than welcome to join at any time. Never a problem! I will then just put in your weight from when you join as your week 1 weight also (so the calculations work). But it is always open for joining!

    New folks - are you also wanting to be added to the spreadsheet? Folks sometimes post but don't want to be in the spreadsheet. Anything you want is fine = this is all about helping and supporting folks in whatever way works best for them.

    So just let me know if you want to be in the spreadsheet and I'll add you in. Anytime!

    Hi all! I thought I would sit out this challenge, but looks like that's not a very good idea for me, I'd best join back in.

    Posse, here are my WW weigh-ins for this time period:

    July 13: 144.2 <-- you can set that as my start weight
    Aug 3: 146.4

    Goal for this challenge: 145

    Thanks!

    Heh, I've been dinking around for only a couple of months, and the weight is creeping up already. I'm starting to track WW points again too. I'd like to nip this gain in the bud before it takes on a life of its own.
