I'm having a brain fade...I can't remember where I was last Tuesday, but today, I am at 123.8...not too sure if that's a loss or a gain...but at least it's underneath 126! Yippee!

funkynut: Sorry! As I said, I'm headed out of town today. Will fix soon!

I've finally battled back down to my signature weight: 230. I wonder what Mr.Scale will show me in the morning? I'd love to see 229, okay with 230 again, and unhappy with 231. Stay tuned and we'll see if I can break into the next decade! Losing weight this time has been like pulling teeth! Take care, all!

Well, I finally saw 166 this morning for the second time, so that means I've hit my goal for this challenge!!!! W00h00! I think I'm going to go for another 5 before labor day, that will put me at 161 (wouldn't that be nice?) I haven't seen under 170 since I was a senior in high school!

I still seem to be stuck--I bounce anywhere form 175 to 178 but haven't broken below 175 yet. I keep thinking I will get back to eating clean but haven't exactly managed that yet either--so will accept the not gaining thing!!! Not boding well for this challenge though!

Hi, hope I am not to late to join in. Starting out at 264 and would like to lose 9 lbs by Labor Day -- taking me to 255.

I saw 230 again....I am sooo looking forward to the 220's. I have been this low before, but I just can't seem to break into the 220's! Other than having some (lightly floured) haystack onions at Bennigan's tonight, I was totally with the program today. I am expecting "TOM" around the 28th, so I think I will start the whole "standard 2 lb. gain" by Monday. I'd LOVE to see that 229 before that happens! Stay tuned...LOL!

Hello Tina and everyone else,
I am back to do another short term challenge with you ...they are so helpful. I have gained 3.5 lbs since 4th of July and that is NOT the direction I had in mind! So... I would like to join you for this Labor Day challenge and set my goal for 9lbs off in 6 weeks, which will be 310 lbs. My losing has slowed down but I should be able to do that. Good Luck to all of you LCers.

I know you all probably are tired of me going on about the "229" thing, but please hear me out.....Mr. Scale was nice to me today! I weighed at 228 at first and almost fainted! So, I weighed again and it said 229. Then, I moved the scale and weighed a couple more times: 229 both times. WOW! I thought I wouldn't see that number ever! Like I said yesterday, TOM will be visiting me next week, and sometimes I lose and sometimes I gain during that time.
I know this is only a big deal to me, but I am happy for everyone in their losses and I know you all are happy for me as well. Onward and downward, I say!!

Congratulations--My inches are changing again--so now maybe the pounds will too--sooner or later! I would love to see the next decade downward!

Thanks! You've done really well and your activity level is great. You'll be back to your usual shrinking once school starts and you get back into a routine, I think.
And feel free to congratulate me again....I was at 228 this morning! As usual, I want to see if it sticks, but I'm happy for the downward trend anyway. When I first started l/cing back in 2000, I went from about 242 to 202 in 4 months. I think I took it for granted. Now that I've restarted so many times and I'm older, it's harder to lose, so I celebrate each pound and take none of them for granted! Take care, all!
