Memorial Day Challenge!

Its time for another challenge! This challenge will be beginning with the first weigh in and goal on Monday, April 13. From there on after, weigh ins will take place Monday. Last weigh in will be Monday, May 25. This will allow a total of 7 weigh ins in all. The link for the spreadsheet is posted below. I'm taking over for @Susan11803. She always hosted the best challenges! Hopefully, I can keep up as well as she did!

A Few Reminders

  • You will know it is updated once I have liked your post.
  • Please post weigh ins here in this post only.
  • We are all here to support each other, so questions posted here will be answered by anyone else willing to help.
  • If you want to adjust your goal weight, just add that in any reply to this post.
  • if you miss a weigh in, no problem! Just report back in the next week.

But if you missed three or more weigh ins, I will assume that you no longer wish to continue the challenge and your name will be removed from spread sheet.

Start 230...goal..200

Weight this morning 227.......Goal 217 :)

Thanks for continuing the challenges. My starting weight is 114 and my goal weight is 112. I'm in maintenance, but I feel having a goal to lose a couple of pounds will help me stay focused.

First weigh in 261.0

goal weight 250

body fat 26%

goal 20%

Start 215, goal 199.

Holy smokes Batman! My "normal" weight the last week has been 150.1 but after returning from a weekend in the high mountains hiking 25 plus miles, I'm weighing in at 156.1 this morning. I'm sure it's a combination of holding onto water and extreme exercise building gorgeous new muscle mass! Haha! Put 156.1 as my starting weight for the challenge and it will (hopefully) show an amazing loss next week! My goal weight will be 147.

First official weigh in... 217.2

I'm currently 3 weeks & 3 days post op. My scale has not changed since week 1. I'm feeling like a failure, any tips would be great!

Current weight: 184.8

Goal weight: 176

I SO want to make goal with one of these challenges!!!!!

Thank you again for helping to keep us focused!!

219 this morning... gonna be aggressive with my goal weight, 207. Thanks so much for taking over.

Here we go!! My starting weight for this challenge is: 207.5. Goal weight: 199 or below :)

I'm getting tired of flip flopping around within a 3-4 lb. range. Hopefully that cycle can be broken by doing this challenge.

Start: 220

Goal: 210

Don't feel like a failure... Weight loss is complicated. Just keep doing what your supposed to be doing and it will come off. I had a 3 week stall starting my 3rd week. I'm currently 9 months post op and it slow going, but I feel great. I've lost 146lbs since I started. While I'd like to get to below 200 I'm starting to feel like I'd be ok if I stayed where I'm at.
