Dr. John Bagnato - Labor Day Challenge

Okay - I am inspired. Firstly - last night meeting everyone and hearing about everyones challenges and experience has motivated me to get back on track. Secondly - seeing that Nip is now overweight is inspiration enough!

I know I can do this...refocus and make GOOD food choices. The food will not control me! Now that I'm done talking to myself, I thought a Labor Day Challenge would be in order. I'm afraid I didn't do so well on the ID Challenge. I know we still have two more days, but I thought we could get this one started. Anyone want to join me?

We have eight weeks. I'm shooting for 2-3 pounds a week - I'm shooting high!

I haven't updated in forever since the scale hasn't budged. It finally moved a pound! I will be shocked if I actually make this labor day goal, but I guess any progress is good!

I'm still not updating. I get my fill on Thursday. I hope I'll have a small loss :-) there's no way I'll lose 15 pounds by Labor day. I'm shooting for five more!

I am updating....I briefly saw 219 this weekend, but will go with what I've seen the last two days...

I'm updating, I know I can't make it before next weekend, but at least I'll be close. There's no way I can loose 4 pounds in a week. I have 17 pounds to goal and I think it'll take as long to loose those 17 as it did to reach the first 60.
