Labor Day Challenge 2012

Labor Day is September 3rd so we have 8 weeks and 4 days in this challenge. How much do you want to lose?

I currently weigh 190.4 and I would like to weigh 175 by Labor Day. I hope this is doable in 8 weeks. My weight loss has slowed downed a lot since my work outs were ramped up.

Here are my goals:

1. Make it to the 170's

2. Lose 15.4 lbs

3. Log food every day into MFP

4. Exercise 4-5 a week

5. Make it to week 10 on Couch to 5 K

Three pounds down this week. Yay.

I think we're weighing on Mondays since labor day falls on that day. Congrats on the 3# loss!! Awesome job!

I had no loss in the 1st weigh in and I cannot weigh in on Monday because I'll be out of town. I am so excited to be off my stall so I decided to go ahead and post an early weigh in.

Today I weighed 186.4. I lost 4 lbs. WOO HOO! 11.4 more to go in 6 weeks. I can do it. Please baby Jesus no stalls!

Yay...love it!! Perfect timing...

Holy Moly, you are doing great!

This morning I weighed @ 296 that means I'm 2 pounds away from 50 pounds I've been stalled for 7 weeks. I ate 3 squares of thin crust pizza of course over 4 hours. There was a break through. Thank God feeling much better. I'm so happy goal to be 285 is looking good for Labor day!!
