March/April weight loss challenge

**Possegal** · 03-01-2010, 12:45 PM

I'll be setting up another chart. Anyone interested in joining us for the next two months, just post here and let me know. I'll add you in to the chart and post a link to it by the end of the week.

Weigh in on Friday 5 March 2010 (or soon thereafter, whatever works for your own schedule) and post it here along with your goal for the end of April. I'll add you on in to the chart!

Here's to a successful two months for all of us!

Thanks for all of your work on this! Please put me down for 139 for this challenge.

Tucker Cat has to lose another two pounds. The vet thinks he should be a 13 pound kitty instead of a 15 pound kitty. Well, really 15.5 pounds. He is a little tubby.

I'm in. I will have my starting weight and my goal on Friday. Friday will mark the one year anniversary of TE weight loss. There have been many a time when I have thought about the Friday weigh in and made a better decision because of it. I would like to thank Possegal for all her work in keeping of the chart which has helped me loose weight and stay motivated to loose more weight, so a big THANK YOU POSSEGAL.

Thanks for all you do for us Possegal!

I'm in for March/April and my goal is 228 for the 2 months.

You are all very welcome! Glad to be able to help.

I've got Tucker Cat down for a goal of 13.

Makes me chuckle because it reminds me of the dieting days with my Bailey Cat - he of my avatar fame.

I want in.

I'm new to this forum as well as cycling. Just got my first serious road bike in January and have been trying to learn all I can. So far I'm hooked! Reading everything on here is super helpful. Right now I'm working on clipless pedals. Took my first fall this weekend, but plan to get on and try again next weekend.

I'd love to have somewhere to keep track of weightloss and motivate me to keep at it. I've been on a long journey and have lost about 100 pounds in the past couple years, but I am finding the last 20-30 (I really don't even know where I should be because I've always been overweight) really challenging to get off. Cycling brought me under 170 for the first time ever, so I'm excited to keep at it and pedal off as much as I can.

So put me down for starting at 166 and the goal for this time as 158. I think eventually I am shooting for 140-150, but I'll have to see when I get there.

I actually made progress last time, so count me in again. Goal this time is ideally under 200, but I think I'll be a bit more realistic and set my goal at 205 for now.

Thank you, Possegal, for keeping track of all of us!

Welcome and good for you, Erickkat! That's awesome.

Put me down again...........I didn't make it last time. Maybe I'll do better this time with the weather getting nicer. I can only hope. Goal: 145

Bad me. I gained a bit this week. 184.8. That's what I get for not eating great and not exercising. Back to the gym tomorrow!

**Jones** · 03-21-2010, 01:55 PM

I'm late posting and also having a bad week. 166.8

I'm so happy to report that I am finally seeing a change in my body! I feel so much stronger and healthier. I think I've lost around 20-25 lbs since last summer. Here is my before and current picture

Way to go!!!! You are awesome!!

**azfiddle** · 03-22-2010, 05:06 PM

Limewave- that's really great progress. Don't you have much more energy
now? High-five!!

I've lost 35 lbs since January 2009, (23 w/ the help of cycling. When people comment to about how I look since losing weight, my response is: "I feel so much better, that's the important thing".
