This has been 1 crazy week! I only lost .2 pounds, but my measurements have changed. My waist went down 2 inches, and my hips an inch. I'm not complaining!

My advise, just keep it moving!!! You ARE LOSING, even though it is slow. Your body has a hard time letting go and in my world that's called loyal. ;) Really though, coops if you throw in the towel I'm taking the first flight out to where you are and pick that towel up and hold it for you.

Now, perhaps next time set a more doable goal for yourself. I know I made mine higher than I should have and chances are I won't make it. But so what!?!? I'm still going down, and that is the REAL challenge here. To keep losing weight. Hugs my friend, you got this!!!!

Hey Irene...

thank you! I did drop my goal weight this time after the might fail of the last challenge!

It is my year anniversary on the 4th July and my surgeon wanted me to be at his goal by then... that is more that my mini goal for this challenge.

I am just soooooo cheesed off today... I know tomorrow is a new day, and I won't feel this way then but when I checked in to see how I had done, well, it didn't help my mood!!

I really don't know what to do differently... never mind, at least I ain't gaining eh?! x

My last check in was ten days ago and I was at 263, I'm thinking about changing my July 4th goal if I reach 250 by next Friday.

I didn't even know to check in!!

Anyway, here is my super late check insmile.gif

START of challenge: Disney........... SW-253...............CW-226...............July 4th goal-185.................Lbs to goal-41.

CURRENT: Disney........... SW-253...............CW-207...............July 4th goal-185.................Lbs to goal-22.

Down 19 pounds since start of challenge. I better get my booty in gear if I am going to lose the rest by the 4th!!!

Hey Irene, share some of that losing mojo you got going on over there. biggrin.gif

Well now, it sounds like you're doing mighty fine yourself!! Keep up the amazing progress!!

For me, I was stalled for nearly three weeks and believe me it took every ounce of positivity in my heart mind and soul to stay sane! I was really working hard and the scale showed nada... it was just... yuck... Anyway, I know how my body loses so that also kept me from going nutso. I will wax for a few weeks and wane for a few weeks. It's paying off right now! Next weigh day should still show a good loss - but after that I have to start all over with my will power and patience... LOL :)

wow it's been a hard couple of weeks -- hopefully my weight loss will pick up so I can lose the rest by July 4th!

It's interesting to see how far I've come -- I don't feel like I've been in the 180s for a while, but yet, I started out the challenge there -- so that's pretty good!

Hopefully, I'll reach my goal, but if not, that's ok, because it's not a race, it's a journey! :D

****Update

Well, I did not have a good May. I was traveling for 2 weeks and then at a Christian retreat ranch for another 10 days. I tried to make the best choices possible, but still hard under those circumstances. Not too horrible though. I hope to still make my 4th of July goal.

Hi all,

I'm not sure I'll make my goal, but I'm trying!

i had a stall last week and a one pound loss this week. TTOM and out of action with the flu. This week I'm going to smash it - I'm feeling fantastic and it feels good to be more than half way towards my final goal.

I went for an hour long walk/run this morning and I actually started crying during it because I felt so overwhelmingly happy about how far I've come and how much energy I have now.

All the best everyone. Great to read all the succeses in this thread. :)
