May & June - Weight Loss Challenge

[Fujichants]

148 lbs. I am just really happy i'm below 150 lbs again and trying my best to stay under. Now if only I could get to 145...and then 140....and then i'm set!

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.

[roadie gal]

*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.

Well, back down to 149. I seem to go between 149-150. This may be where my body wants to be. Great job to everyone.

158.4 ... back on track (in the right direction!). Thanks all for this challenge, it makes a difference.

[Over50Newbie]

138.8

Well, I did it. I said that I was going to fit comfortably into my size 8 jeans, and I do! Five weeks ago, I posted my "before pictures." And now here are my "after pictures."





And I am not stopping here. My "whisper goal" is to get to 129.

Since I seem to have landed on the right formula these days to drop pounds, I am going to just keep doing what I am doing.

I am really proud of myself that I made a plan and then kept to it.

Posting those "before pictures" was a real motivator for me.

Definitely wish I saw this earlier! I am currently 143 and I started a bet with my sister to lose 10lbs by August 1. The winner receives $200 toward a pair of jeans! Where I really need to be to look my best is around 128, but 130 makes me a very happy girl! I'm a hair shy of 5'-7". I am just now starting to get back on the bike and the blades and my long city walks with my pug. If you extend this to July/August please count me in!

thanks,

My weight last night : 165.8lb. Finally down a tiny bit!

PS... LYNETTE: Whoo Hoo!!!!!!! Go Girl!!!!

Down another kilo as of this morning. 180.4 YAY! Didn't get the exercize I should've all week, and hotel meals for 3 days would usually have put me up the scale a bit. "Luckily" for me, I was sick those 3 days (Crohn's flare-up the night before take-off) so I barely ate, mostly just concentrated on staying hydrated and getting some easily digested proteins on board. Now my guts are back in order, so now I'll have to do some daily hiking and biking if I'm to keep the weight off while visiting my Mom. All that comfort food ... She cooks very healthy meals! It's not that there's a lot of fat or sugar in everything, but she does do things like pancakes for breakfast and dessert after dinner when there's company in the house. Well, better get to bed if I'm to be up early and hike the Overlook Trail before breakfast! (Well, maybe not the first morning. I must be seriously jet-lagged to be sitting here on line at 1:30 am. Better get to bed!)

I'm back at 139 this week. Hopefully, I'll be able to end below that!

[Pika]

yikes...back up again- the scale said 150.2 but I truly don't believe it- I exercised tons, was really good about what I ate...hmmmm here's hoping it is just left over bloating from my period!
Funny thing is I felt really good until I got on the scale- then I just felt blech!
Ate crappy food today too- why oh why do I do that to myself!

ps LYNETTE YOU ARE AWESOME!!!

Hey Guys

Hanging tight at 190. I am not getting this. I haven't gotten much mtn biking in but I logged a total of 90 miles this week (road- mtn bike with slicks) and it just ain't coming off. I know I'm not drinking enough water but I also ditched the WW thing too, why? Because I was eating way too much processed foods. So there you have it. Heading into the home stretch. Better go drink some water!

[Possegal]

very slight change for me, 179.0 this week. time to get my butt moving again, got a bit lazy last week.

[jesvetmed]

What week are we on? How much time do I have?
