4th of July Challenge!

Good Morning Everyone!! I don't know if there are any other 4th of July Challenge's started yet but a VST friend asked me to start a challenge and I figured this was a good one, especially since the 4th is a Thursday and that's the day I weight in each week.

My challenge's are a little different, instead of logging your loss (or gain) here each week click the link and log in each week. You can also let us know here how your doing. I've done a few of these and they have been a lot of fun! I look forward to seeing everyone's progress.

I set my goal to 25 - very aggressive considering i have been averaging 4.5 lbs per month, BUT I am pushing myself more and working out more - I want to see 100lbs (with this surgery, I'm a revison now down 116 in full total) and I can't wait to see 199 on the scale!! (which is what 24lbs would be!) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AjyfO8-OrcmCdGYzMXlsVnc4ZTVJYzQ1dFZLelpqcFE&usp=sharing

Stuck in a stall this week and ate scallops from Outback Sunday night (they have like 2000 mg sodium in them) so I knew I'd be heavier yesterday morning. Next week will look better!! I'm determined to get 30 pounds off by July 4!

I am kinda stalled this week too...

I set a pretty lofty goal for myself, and I still have to lose 5lbs a week for the next 6 weeks to meet it, so I gotta keep moving.

Well, I dropped out only b/c I'm doing a lot of weight training & my weight stays same or goes up sometimes due to muscle gain, but this is an excellent idea & Best of luck to you all!!! Go for it!! :-)

After starting out going the wrong direction Monday and Tuesday, ended up salvaging the week with a 4 pound loss! Just 10.9 more to go to make goal by July 4! We can do it!!!

Increased exercise and protein helped me break a week stall, good luck everyone!

July 4th will be here before we know it.
