I can't weigh in on Thanksgiving morning because we have decided to fly to Minnesota to be with my husband's family (I only count weight on my scale). But...I didn't think I was going to make my goal of 145 because I was in a two and a half week stall. Surprise' date=' I went down a pound yesterday and today....SEVEN pounds (I apparently exercise or have liposuction in my sleep LMAO). So, my final weigh in will be on Tuesday morning before we leave for the airport. But if I stay on track I just might make it!

Starting weight 185

Challenge weight start 155.6

Today's weight 146.6

Challenge weight goal 145.nothing :P

Seven pounds in a day. Wow, congrats on that

I know I already weighed in this week but just wanted to report today because I'm so so close to my Thanksgiving goal, losing 100 pounds and hitting onederland. If I can accomplish all 3 that would be awesome. I'm also excited because some 16's are too big on me now. It's strange because I remember wearing a 16 when I weighed 170 pounds years ago?? What's up with that?

SW 209

Well stay positive everyone! If we made goal great job, if we didn't keep heads held high and keep trying! This challenge was designed to be fun not stressful, we are all in this together!

185 today

182.8 today, but we had our Thanksgiving dinner with my family today so we'll see what the scale says tomorrow :-/ I'm tentatively 2.8 lbs away from Thursday's goal.

Omg! As of this morning I am 149 just 1 or 2 lbs away from this challenge. I'm not feeling good so I don't know how ill do tomorrow.

I set a fairly ambitious goal of 11 lbs. To meet my challenge I need to lose 6 lbs from now till Thanksgiving, which is 9 days. I may pull off 3, but 9 is not looking possible. A stall didn't help things.

But no matter what, I've lost, which is a win.

So I posted this last week pretty much knowing that there was probably no way that I could make it to my challenge goal. But my stall broke and I've lost 4 lbs since the comment above.

That means that between today (Monday) and this Thursday, IF I drop 2 lbs I will make it! It IS possible!

No, I won't be upset if I don't. I'm very grateful and appreciative of my progress so far. Setting these goals along the way do add some interest, though.

As of today, I have met my goal of losing 10 lbs by Thanksgiving!

Challenge start weight: 213

Todays weight: 203

This was my first challenge & I'm still in mega loss time - @ 3 1/2 months from surgery.

Congratulations to everyone who tried & lost, that was really the goal from the beginning.

So I'm at 183 leaving me to lose another 4 pound by Thursday I've been stalled for about a week... So I don't think in going to make it but I'm going to try I'm not do happy with myself.:(

One month ago I joined the challenge and I started at 158 goal weight was 148 and as of today I'm 147. Yay!

Sleeve date: July 3/12

Starting weight: 227

Start of challenge Oct 19: 187

Current weight Nov 19: 180.6

Goal weight (Thanksgiving): 180
