I gained a pound this week. This is my first stall and week with no loss, also my first gain. I started working out a week and a half ago every single day and I think that is messing with my weightloss. I am determined to be positive and know I am doing the right thing. I am just going to keep on keeping on and see what happens. I have lost a couple inches in the last two weeks so I will take that.

It's pretty typical that folks stall at about the 3 month mark. Good that you're exercising! You'll get past this and then the pounds will melt off...no worries...enjoy the holidays in the meantime!!

I understand your frustration. I'm going through the same issues right now myself. We are about the same weight. I just started going back to the gym a week ago, things were just too hectic for the prior month. I'm staying on program with my eating, it is frustrating when the loss slows down even when we're doing all the right things. But, like you even though I haven't dropped much in the past month and a half, I can tell I have lost inches based on how my clothes fit. I am happy that some slacks for work I am putting in my "fat" pile and are now too big to wear. So, that is comforting.

We can do this!

I weighed myself in the evening, so it's possible I weigh less than 180.6. I usually weigh myself in the morning. Regardless, I'm so happy to almost be in the 170's!!!!

Finally moving in the right direction. Now to just not let Thanksgiving get me off track. This is my first major holiday being sleeved. Halloween and it's treats was a struggle so I must stay focused this week!!

Today 11/21: 225.8!! Yeah baby! I think this stall has finally broken! Could it be the body bootcamp????

Good morning everyone!

I previously pledged to lose 20 lbs by Christmas. So far I have lost 11 lbs and it's not even Thanksgiving. Therefore, I am re-setting my goal to 30 lbs.

SW : 230 CW : 219 Goal : 200

Wish me luck!!

There are different sites that offer this for free. Many people here seem to use www.tickerfactory.com.

They will have the instructions on how to put it in your signature here. Good job on your weight loss!

I was right- I should have waited to weigh myself in the morning. I'm down to the 170's! Well, barely at 179.5. I don't ever remember weighing in the 170's. When I was 12 I weighed 160, and the next time I weighed myself at 13 I weighed 185! This is a pretty big deal for me

How exciting! I'm so happy for you. I'm struggling right now to keep the scale moving right now. I'm right at the top of the 180's and it's just so frustrating!

Keep up the great work!

The Halloween challenge was my first ever and it was fun to follow peoples' progress and it helped me to stay motivated with a mini-goal. I beat my Halloween goal by 2 pounds. So I'm very happy. I've set my Christmas goal with a 2 lbs a week weight loss in mind. I think that's reasonable and doable.

It's so exciting to think that I won't mind my picture being taken this holiday season!!!

Yikes! It's been 3 weeks since I joined this challenge (on Halloween) and I've only lost 2 lbs. Things definitely slowed down for me this past month. Tomorrow is my 3 mo. surgiversary. I'm still hoping to meet my Christmas goal, but at this pace it won't happen. I'm not too worried about it though because I'm down enough that I'm feeling much more comfortable. I have 20 lbs. to go until I reach my ultimate goal and if it slow going so be it. I will get there eventually!
