May & June - Weight Loss Challenge

[Over50Newbie]

139.6

I have now officially broken my "Goal Weight" for this challenge. It was 140.

I am still very dedicated - I am right on track.

Exercise and eating are "spot on."

I am really going to do this!!!!

I tell you, posting those pictures made all the difference for me.

Way to go Lynette! You are inspiring...
but apparently not inspiring me enough to not gain weight on a vacation!

I'm up a bit this week to 167.4

This is a new week!

Back down to 138 lbs this morning. Definitely happy to be heading in the right direction again.

Congrats on beating your goal weight, Lynette! I've got 3 more lbs to lose to make mine. If the weather cooperates, I bet I can do it.

Darn! The measly pound I took off last week was back on again this morning. Sigh. And tomorrow is a neighbor's 60th birthday party. And then Tuesday and Wednesday I have meetings in Oslo -- as in hotel breakfasts, restaurant dinners. This is gonna be a tough week. Double sigh. Still ... thanks for the help, everybody. Maybe with a nudge or two from being on the list I'll manage. Hotel breakfast: Eat the same as I would at home! Don't let the buffet tempt me. Restaurant dinner: A nice salad with vinaigrette dressing can be filling and tasty. And birthday party: Well, it's the weekend. I can put in a couple of long rides or hikes to compensate.

190.0 lbs

At least back on track, the kids schedule and weather are killing my workout rides. Hopefully I'll get a good week in this week.

Congrats to everyone for doing so well.

148.5. Yup, I lost weight, but not because of exercise or eating well...my wisdom teeth have been acting up, so haven't been able to eat anything except for broth and jamba juice. Then got the gum tissue removed yesterday. Good to know though that i'm able to lose weight by not eating! But I am HUNGRY!!

Still hanging in at 149. Still remain focused on my goal of 140. Good luck to everyone.

I knew my vacation in the Florida Keys would be tough!! I'm 146.5 - up by 1.5 pounds! I really didn't eat that bad, but missed my daily trip to the gym, so hopefully I can get it off quickly!

Hey guys, good work ... keep it up!

I wish I'd found this thread when you started but I only found the site a week ago. Dang!

Charting is good. I've dropped 45lbs in last year and half and hoping mtb will help firm me up.

Are you gonna do it again for July/August?

Mupedalpusher is back from vacation and holding firmly at 137. Middle of the week it looked like I had gained a pound but it was all gone by this morning's weigh in! I'm always happy just to maintain on vacation.

*sigh* Back up to 147 this morning. But I've been taking a lot of Motrin for my hip pointer and that makes me hold a lot of water.
