Weight Challenge: Labor Day to Thanksgiving

I saw this posted on another thread and I thought it was a good idea. All of us Junies could do this together.

Name....Challenge start wgt....current wgt.....chall. goal.....To go.

Huntersmom... 174...................174................159.............15

If we all just copy and paste this so we can have a running list.

I do not weigh myself at home I only get weighed at my exercise, nutritrion class which is every other week. Others may post as often as they like.

Good luck everyone.

Well the scale is STILL stuck. In fact, it went up a tad before settling right back where it was before. I'm pretty disgusted with the whole thing right now, but I'm still trudging through. My efforts have GOT to pay off sooner or later. I don't start with my trainer until the 24th, so I'll just keep trying on my own until then.

I doubt very seriously if I will even come close to my goal, but I refuse to change it and am still trying for it. (I told y'all I was stubborn, right? LOL)

I'm looking forward to this Saturday! The largest wine festival in the South is in Grapevine, Texas this weekend, which is about 15 minutes from home. I think it is going to be wonderful! We are taking an antique train from the Fort Worth Stockyards into Grapevine and spend the day. I will have a "cheat day" that day. I won't have time to go to the gym, and I'm going to eat whatever my heart desires! (And that my band will allow, of course!) I saw my trainer at the gym and she said to try "shocking the body" by going completely off my regimen for a day. I'll let y'all know just how bad it gets! LOL

I know I said I wasn't weighing until the weekend, but I just had to know! The scale moved a little, so I am updating, but I am now worried about getting to goal. At least I am not gaining I guess.

Dare I say it?!?!? The scale is finally starting to move in the right direction as of today. The weight lifting is helping, I believe. I'm hoping to post a good change at the end of next week. Here is to lots of sweat and lots of prayer!

OK - I gave in and adjusted my weight according to the scales at the surgeons office. So now my start weight is 349 - and my goal was adjusted to 320 - for a goal loss of 29 pounds. I think I can do that!!

YAY...the scale is mooooving!!! And in the right direction too!
