Lost another 2.2 pounds this week! Current weight is now 221and my goal weight is 210. I have been doing really well with my cardio, and since I am now 6 weeks out I will start adding some weights!! Water and Protein was good this week! Good luck everybody!! Make the last few weeks count!

Hmmm....8 weeks.....ok

I'm at 277, and I'd like to get to 255 and fit into my wedding dress. (22 lbs. Lofty goal, I know.....but I might do it!)

WEll, as of today, I am exactly halfway to my labor day challenge weight. AND, if you saw my post, I GOT INTO THE DRESS!!! WOO HOO!!

11 more pounds to lose in 5 weeks. I think I might just be able to do it. I've lost 5 lbs in the last 5 days. It's weird.

Hi all!

SW: 164 CW: 159 GW:149

I made some progress this week. It's a surprise considering I took a week off from running because my knees were giving me problems. The rest paid off! I hiked Mist Trail in Yosemite on Friday. It was awesome! So much so that I'm heading back on Thursday with a couple of friends. AND this morning I ran 6.5 miles in 75 minutes. Yeah, I'm not breaking any speed records, but had a great run after a week of rest. Yay NSVs to balance out slow weight loss.

22# to goal..whew! I don't know if I can make this challenge or not. I have been doing WAAY too many carbs the last couple of days. That has got to go! I have upped my Protein greatly though. At least that is a step in the right direction.

I think 6.5 mile in 75 min. sounds awesome. I have a torn up knee and I do 3 miles in 60 min. So yay for you

I saw you in that dress...WTG!! It is soo awesome to be able to watch the clock roll backwards. It made me want to try mine on too. So, I got the hubby to help me into it Saturday night. Yes, I had to have help. That thing is huge! It has a cathedral train that filled most of our living room. Anywho..it was falling off too big. I figured it up, I weight 45# less now than I did then. I told my hubby, when I get to goal, I may have it taken-up. I would like to have some pictures made in it; so I can look like how I wish I could have then. It truly is the most beautiful dress I have ever seen.
