Memorial Day Challenge!

Okay guys, Its challenge time again. Who is with me? Memorial Day is about 7 weeks away and I am going to start this challenge off right with a doable goal of 10 pounds. I am 8 months out today and I know my losses will be continuing to slow. I used to set my goals at 20 pounds, then 15, then 13 and now 10. I want to be realistic and I am only 20 pounds from goal so I think 10 pounds is a good realistic goal for me. How about you? What will be your goal for the next seven weeks?

Omg. It's as if I said I'd do this & the scale froze :( As of today I'm 252. Only a couple weeks left & 12# to go to reach my goal. Looks unlikely, but I'm going to try to stay positive & aim for success! Starting yoga today!!

Woot woot!! 246 today! Only 6# to go for my challenge goal :)

I'm 318 this AM... not looking good for sub 300 for Memorial Day... but, I'm okay... not stalled anymore!!!!

Well' date=' on everyones advise, I upped my protein intake. I have been pushing through 60-80g, up from 20-30g+-. It may be good for me, but it appears that it is not good for my weight loss. My weight has been bouncing up and back down all week. So my final weight is back to where I started last week. No loss this week.

SW 155.2 CW 148 GW 144.2 Pounds to lose by Memorial Day-- 3.8

Down 1.9 this week! Yay! Im 3.8 pounds from my goal and only a week to do it in.. but I am going to try really hard! Maybe I will at least get close! If I can get to 145 (3 more pounds) I will have a normal BMI! I am so close to normal I can taste it!!!! Its the last week! Come on girls, lets give it our all!!!!!

It is so frustrating for me. I am still at my bounce for the past 2 weeks and am so frustrated with it. I weigh 152.2 this am and that's including the 2 lb bounce. URGGGGG! Oh well, it is what it is and today I am going back to basics. I will be doing The Basic Bootcamp diet with today and tomorrow being all liquids. Oh and I'm getting ready to go exercise at the gym. 1 more week to get to my goal weight. ;)

HOLY CRAP! I had a great week this week...down 5 pounds! So that leaves me 4 pounds to my challenge goal weight and if I can push it one more pound beyond that I will finally be in twonderland!! OMG, that would totally make my day!

HW: 358 SW: 355 CW: 304 GW: 300 (okay I'd like 299 even more)

I am in kind of a stall too. Just had protein and nothing else but MIO water yesterday. No carbs today either. Just protein and MIO water! I have my monthly follow up the 29th so I need to go up and do my treadmill! Since I am Italian, I crave carbs, but I don't have a taste really for bread anymore or potatoes or sweets Thank God! For some reason since being sleeved I crave peanut butter on brown rice cakes instead of popcorn which I ate everyday before my sleeve and haven't had any since! Good luck everyone!!

Welllll........ I am a day late and 2lbs up. I have issues. Blame it on the Bridal shower, ladies tea luncheon and another get together. My son is getting married in less than two weeks and we've been intertaining and just having one festivity after another. I am miserable with myself!!!! I refuse to go down with out a fight.... back to basics for me also!!!
