Guest Leslie2Lose Posted July 2, 2008 Okay - I am inspired. Firstly - last night meeting everyone and hearing about everyones challenges and experience has motivated me to get back on track. Secondly - seeing that Nip is now overweight is inspiration enough! I know I can do this...refocus and make GOOD food choices. The food will not control me! Now that I'm done talking to myself, I thought a Labor Day Challenge would be in order. I'm afraid I didn't do so well on the ID Challenge. I know we still have two more days, but I thought we could get this one started. Anyone want to join me? We have eight weeks. I'm shooting for 2-3 pounds a week - I'm shooting high!

nip50 2 Posted July 2, 2008 Count me in! I might shoot for 1-2 pounds a week so lets say 12 pounds.

allykat 1 Posted July 3, 2008 Great idea, I'm in! I feel like I have got to be the slowest looser on the planet sometimes. My cast comes off in two weeks, and then I can really work out and I know that is what I need. So I'm going to shoot for 2 lbs. per week, too.

jbrad71629 2 Posted July 4, 2008 I'm in too. I finally started losing weight again. I thought my plateau would last forever. With 8 weeks i want to lose 20 pounds, so 2.5 pounds a week, I can do that if my body will cooperate...

nip50 2 Posted July 10, 2008 My fill 2 weeks ago has been a big help. Down 3. I've also lowered my goal weight and if I get close to it, I might lower it another 5 or 6, that would put me in the normal category. I always figured overweight would be fine, but lately I've been rethinking it.

Guest Leslie2Lose Posted July 18, 2008 Let's get this challenge going. What have you done this week? Exercise: NADA! I take that back - one day of Zumba class at the Y Eating: Pretty good, need to journal though! Gotta work on my Protein. Drinking: Not getting in my liquids! Now what am I doing to correct my laziness? Going to the gym tonight!!! Doing something to get my butt moving. I have a workout partner - JEANNIE!!!! - you need to be tough with me...I need tough love! Enough excuses. I started journaling today too. Water! Water! Water!

georgia girl 35 Posted July 18, 2008 Good for you Leslie! I haven't lost any weight this week but I've been doing really good. I ran yesterday, so today is my off running day. I think DH and I will play Wii tonight. Probably boxing, it's a wonderful workout. Let's go everyone! We can make our goals! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
georgia girl 35 Posted July 21, 2008 Well, after I lost that measly little one pound, I gained it back. But, all is good because I lost it back, plus 2 more....YAY!

nip50 2 Posted July 21, 2008 Good going Georgia Girl. I wish I could say the same I thought my last fill might help, but not much. The last 2 weeks I've been at a stand still. Keep up the good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Keep up the good work. Thanks Nip! You have lost a lot of weight very consistently, so maybe your body just needs to catch up a bit. I'm sure you will start losing again soon. You've done so well and if anyone can make it to goal, it's YOU!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
