[legal loser 77]

Struggling here because I feel like I've hit a stall that's never ending. Frustrated, but more people are noticing the weight loss....just have to remind myself, the scale is going to move. Not sure I'll meet my Labor Day goal by Labor Day, but I will keep pushing!

I've resigned myself to the fact that I can't control my weight loss time frame.

I can't eat less, and I can't exercise more, than I am already.

Mathematically, the numbers say I should be losing 3 lbs a week, but I am not; I'm only losing 1 lb a week. I don't know how this is possible, but that's the reality. My fear is that it will slow even further, or I'll have an extended stall.

[Ms skinniness 3,003]

Leaveittosleeve: Losing 1 lb a week is awesome. We don't lose the same amount of weight each week, it varies. The only thing we can control is how health and nutritious is the food that we put in our mouths and how much exercise we get. If you don't make your challenge this time, you will next time.

Good luck everyone on making your challenges! I know I'm not going to make my challenge and I'm happy with that today, but may not be tomorrow. No sweat, I got this!

[hellonurse 76]

you are so close to Onederland!

[legal loser 77]

you are so close to Onederland!

I know. But it seems like my body is like, what are you doing and is completely comfortable in the 200s. I know I'll get there. Believe me, I am more than happy with the loss to date, but am so looking forward to seeing a number that starts with a "1".

[whataloser 25]

Current weight 185. I've only lost 7 1/2 pounds since starting the challenge, but I might not have lost anything if I hadn't started at all! So I'm good and working hard for more of a loss this week.

[Dooter 1,457]

I thought 22 lbs would be WAY too lofty a goal for this challenge, but I've lost 16 of it so far! only 6 to go. I already consider this a victory!

We are in the same boat I have lost 7# also

[Wolfgirl1978 256]

From 230 last week to 228 this week.

Getting closer to goal weight of 225.

From 228 last week to 222 this week.

My Labor Day Challenge goal weight was 225, so I made my goal.

Now I'm hoping I can drop the 2lbs and weigh 220 by Labor Day
