Start weight = 157
August 9: " = 156 (week 1:-1)
August 16: " = 155 (week 2: -1)
August 23: " = 153 (week 3: -2)
August 30: " = 154 (week 4: +1)

[egwene78]

i'm new and would love a good challenge. i'm just starting out on ww, but only have about 13 pounds to lose. i'm going to the beach in 3 weeks, and would really like to be at least 5 pounds lighter. i think the challenge will help! smile.gif

[Mystical Angel]

Christy and Joanne great job on your losses so far ..good start to a first week !!
Welcome jlrose,shugar and egwene78 great to have you guys for this challenge.

Hello all!

I joined BCB a year ago, and had been doing great on the weight loss trail. For the last three months, I have gained and lost the same 2 pounds. Can you say "Frustrating?!?!" I have not posted due to lack of time and feeling like a failure. However, I am close to goal and I am Not Giving Up! Maybe this challenge is what I need. I didn't make my last two challenges, but I am willing to try another one.

I need to lose 7.2 pounds to get to my goal.
Thanks!

Week one, 8/5, -1.4 (I have been doing the flex program - we'll see if it works! So far, so good)

[Nancy Drew]

Count me in for 6.4. Down 1 pound for this week.

[jlrose]

Whoops! I'm up .2# this week. :rolleyes:

[bethsj]

I am up 0.6 this week :mad: !! I did something stupid - I ate lunch at about 2:30 with a huge glass of water on the afternoon I had to weigh in. DUH! Completely forgot it was weigh-in day. Hopefully it will be better next week, although I have gone back and forth 2 pounds for the last 3 months graemlins/sobbing.gif . Good luck everyone!

[Nancy Drew]

I am up 1# this week. graemlins/ugh.gif

Does anyone else retain fluid when the temperature is in the 100s? I will be very happy when this summer is over.

8/03-09: -1#
8/10-16: +1#

[kbjork8274]

I'm up for this but am lost on how it works. When is WI and when do we post our stats. I started Labor Day challenge and lost 2# since Friday - TOM ended. Please let me know what I'm suppose to do to be in this challenge. Oh, I also want to lose about 5 - 8 lbs as soon as possible.

(oops! i've been editing my first post in this thread to record each week's losses. please look there instead. thanks!)

[Christym1969]

Hi I stayed the same this week. I missed WI last week. I hope I do better this week. Good luck to everyone else.

Christy

[jlrose]

I'm up another pound this week. Sigh...

[Mystical Angel]

Hi there guys ...

I will update the stats on Sunday night .. my computer crashed and I have been sick as well ..not sure if I got the same bug as my computer smile.gif
Keep up the good work !!!

see you all on Sunday
MA

[plcm111195]

I was shocked at my WI today with a huge 2.2 loss!
I ate higher points (but still OP) while I was on vacation and mixed it up some more when I was back last week. Apparently that works for me! TOM coming soon so I don't know how that will effect next week, but I'm a pretty happy camper. Have a great OP week everyone!

[bethsj]

Good Morning all! I was only down 0.2 this week, for a total of 1 lb. I'll take what I can get. Back to school as of last week and I have been doing much better. I need a routine. Also, my old meeting opened back up so I will WI on Thurs. instead of Tues., which always was better for me. Hope everyone has a great week!

[Mystical Angel]

Welcome Karen ..

Keep up the good work guys and don't get discouraged we can do this , though I am not impressed with my gain this week.

Please feel free to correct me if I have any of the stats wrong,

MA

[jlrose]

I finally lost something for this challenge. I'm down .8 this week. (I'm still up for the challenge)

[bethsj]

HI! Well, according to my scale, I was down about 4-5 pounds, so I couldn't wait to get to WI. We started a new meeting, and her scale was broken! :mad: According to it, I was down 13.8 pounds!!!! :cool: I'll take it :D . She had a new scale at home, and was going to weigh herself on both and adjust our stats accordingly. Therefore, I won't have an official # until next week. Rats! Good luck everybody!

[shugar]

Ok, I think I've finally had it with the scale! graemlins/bcbkick.gif I'm putting it in the basement today, and going to quit measuring my success by it. I'm up 1 lb. from last week, and the only reason I can come up with is that I have not eaten enough. My clothes are definitely looser and better fitting than they were last week, so I think I'll go by that from now on. I've been eating my target points + all of my AP's every day, but only 11 of my flex points. graemlins/ugh.gif My plan for the week (which starts tomorrow) is to eat more of my flex points, and give the scale ONE MORE CHANCE next Saturday. If there is still no change I will be dropping out of the challenge at that time and sticking with clothing size as my gauge.

Wishing you all continued success. Good luck!

[bethsj]

Is this challenge still going? I haven't seen a lot of replies.

I am happy to say I lost 2.2 pounds over the last two weeks. Only 4 left to WW goal. Probably won't make it by the end of this challenge, but I am happy with the loss, as I haven't had a good loss for quite awhile. Hope everyone else is doing well! graemlins/wave.gif

[Mystical Angel]

Great going Beth and yes the challenge is still rolling ...I have started a new thread for the last two weeks ...

MA~

[jlrose]

I lost 2# this week! Finally!

[Mystical Angel]

Great going Jessica !!!

Me I am up 1.6 this week very frustrated ..
MA

[Tina_30]

I'd like to pledge 5 lbs.
I have 13 to go and keep losing and gaining the same weight as well!

[jlb31]

I'd like to pledge 4.5 pounds for the next 7 weeks. Also, my boyfriend is thinking of joining WW. It seems like lately, the less I eat, the more he eats.

Pledge 155.3 by 11/02/03

[Mystical Angel]
