I can't find my name on the chart anymore. I did post that I was out of the country on vacation but when I went in to log my weight loss, my name is missing? Can anyone help me?

Another week and no weight loss. I don't get it. I'm exercising 4-5 days a week doing circuit training, getting 100 g of protein and 90 ounces of water today, not grazing, NOTHING! What gives? This sux. Sorry, I am just so disappointed these past few weeks.....

Down only 1 pound, not close to goal but I am losing and that is all that matters, even if it is at a snails pace:biggrin:

I am down 1 pound for the week. Better than nothing. :thumbdown:

I'm down three pounds total for the challenge, but what a grueling road! I certainly won't make my 10 pound goal, but it's okay. I am still going in the right direction. Did I hear someone say July 4th challenge?!?! Heh. :thumbdown:

Frustrated with no loss this week! But going through a tough time with my mom very ill and now we put her into hospice care. Think she only has a couple weeks left. She has lung cancer which such a nasty disease.

I am trying very hard not to use food as an emotional outlet and am still exercising. But my stress levels are through the roof which I am sure are contributing to lack of weight loss.:thumbdown:

I'm down 2 pounds this week.

Have not weighed--will probably do so Wednesday--TOM struck--I gain 5-7lbs so no use stepping on that scale--I can tell from my swollen cankles--bring on the serious water retention:frown:

Same thing going on here...even my face is puffy this time! I will try to weigh tomorrow, but it isn't looking promising!

Hey, I missed this challenge, i was just banded last week...is there going to be a Father's day or 4th of July challenge because I'm in!:bored:

STUCK, stuck, stuck...this sucks! I have lost 4 pounds total since my last fill, and I am exercising more and eating enough protien and calories. I hate when the scale doesn't move!

I agree with you, these last two weeks I felt like I was fighting an army to get any weight off. I am not sure but I may have hit a plateau. It has become increasingly harder to get any weight off and I am still like you hitting my target calories, Protein and workouts. Maybe I will wake up one morning and be 5 lbs down, here is hoping :thumbup:

Happy Mum's day everyone

Well didn't quite reach my goal of 15 pounds but made 14. So I am very happy, especially after being stuck for 2 weeks. This challenge helped keep me focused. What is the next one????????? I'm in.

I met my weight loss challenge goal. I'm so thrilled. This challenge was just what I needed to get into the weight loss groove. I am drinking a lot more Water, taking my Vitamins, and jogging three days a week, cross training two other days.

If anyone wants to do a July 4th challenge, I'm in!!

Well, I lost 1 freaking lb during this challenge :-(! Freaking plateau! My BB arrives this week so hopefully it will help me blast through. I'm not giving up!!!

Happy Mother's Day everyone!
