Thanks, I guess the week off hurt me a little, but the challenge is a great motivator.

8 week Goal - 185.0 lbs

Thanks again!

Starting weight- 171.4

Goal for this challenge- 165

Time to get off the 170ish plateau, and get things moving in the right direction!

The other thing that helps me is to take my measurements once a month. It's always a great thing to lose an inch or two, even if the scale has not moved that much.

Current weight: 147.5

Goal: 142 lbs....ah heck ,why not make it a nice 140 lbs.

I'm checking in at 177 lbs. I'd like to lose 7 lbs to put me at an even 170 by the end of the challenge.

I've lost about 10 lbs over the past 6 weeks by logging my food and exercise on sparkpeople. I was also training for a century and decided to forego the weightloss and focus on eating right for training (eating about 2500 calories a day) but I still managed to lose weight. I'll probabaly be riding less over the next 8 weeks, but I hope to incorporate more weight training and core work into my workouts.
