New Weight Loss Challenge

[kjay]

Same old same old story . . . no weight change for me. I do feel that I've lost inches and will start keeping track of inches rather than weight. I will continue to track my weight for this challenge, however. Not sure whether to smile or frown, so I'll do both.

I'm FINALLY under 170... 169.6. YEAH!!! Years since I've been this low.

I think we have ONE more week. So next Friday is it!
Will post the official rankings in a day or so once everyone has checked in!

So I've been sick FOREVER and haven't posted. Today's weight is 115.5, however most of this weight loss is from being sick.

Back up to 139 today. It's been a rough couple of weeks for me. The weather is much nicer and I'm hoping to get outside more. I'm also working on commuting to work.

[PinkBike]

me too, back up 1 pound to 138.2

jes, great job!

[Over50Newbie]

Back down to 141. I'm like a yo-yo (up a few, down a few, up a few, down a few) Oh well, at least I am trying...

This Friday is the last weigh-in for this contest...
Let's see. .I believe the reward is a pair of biking socks, so I'll let you know who gets 'em and where to send 'em!
HAve a great week!

Thanks JVM - I hate to be the one to point it out but mine should say GAINED instead of LOST.

same for me, too.

I guess 'LOST' in conjunction with a negative sign on a % lost would cancel out the concept of weight 'LOST'...but perhaps it makes more sense to just say that we've gained?

(not that I'm happy about it or anything!)

[jesvetmed]

SnowTulip I'm sorry you've been so sick! Welcome back to the land of the living.

[bambu101]

Jes- good job on reaching one of your personal milestones!

[jesvetmed]

Thanks to everyone for the encouragement! You guys are awesome!

This will be our last week.... so if you haven't checked in let me know where you are for the 4/18 weigh in. Next Friday, 4-25 will be our last weigh - in for THIS challenge. Sounds like GLC has volunteered to do the next one! I'm In! I'll send out the update information on Monday or sooner if everyone has checked in.

THANKS EVERYONE!
Jes
