Checking in today at 191.2. Looks like I'm losing one pound a week. Want more, but I'll take whatever I can get!

I'm two+ years out now and recently have put on about 8 pounds. Well, Im sure it was creeping on all summer. I want to get it back off before the end of November when I am scheduled to run in the Rock and Roll Marathon (5k). I know its late to join a challenge but they sure did help me when I was in the losing phase. I have about 20 days left in this challenge, so three weeks. I'm gonna shoot for all 8 pounds. I am not sure that is doable but I will never know unless I try and any loss is good so.... Here goes!

lol oat now at 265

Now that we have a few weeks' worth of data, I created a tab in the measures spreadsheet with graphing capability. It's not much, but it can still be interesting. Open the spreadsheet and choose the "Graphs" tab at the bottom of the page. If you choose your name in the list on the right, your stats will show up in the chart. I'm including a screenshot of mine here for you to see what I mean:

Anyway, just having more fun with Excel. Enjoy!

I just want to thank you for all of your efforts! I have really enjoyed this and it really let me see what I am actually doing from week to week. It has really helped me to stay motivated! I would love to keep this up! :)

Fred, you're doing so good I think you need to set a different Halloween goal! You originally set it at 245, for a loss of 10 lbs., but have already lost 12 lbs. Nice progress! Congrats!

Ok my new goal is to be 230 by Halloween I didn't loose anything this week still 243. Maybe next week will be better.
