Weight-Loss December 7lb. Challenge

Weight-Loss
I know but, I was losing steadily. Usually 2-3 pounds per week. In all fairness to myself though, I didn't managed to get to the gym for over a week since the gym I use is the military gym on base and my boyfriend is out to sea so I had no way of getting on base. I did walk a lot though :)

I get to go to the gym tomorrow when he comes home. Thanks goodness, I'm having withdrawals for working out :p WOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Hey All,

just wondering how your all doing as far as losing the 7 pounds? Hopefully you guys are losing and feeling good :)

I'm still losing pounds, PHEW! I'm almost in the 150's! YIIIIPPPPPEEEEEE!!!!!
 
I am pleased that you are still losing Joey.

I am losing - but expect to gain later in the month.

Saturday 01/12/2007 12st 10.2 lbs i.e. 178.2 pounds
Saturday 15/12/2007 12st 5.6 lbs i.e. 173.6 pounds
so I am 4.6 pounds down so far this month.

Great job Margaret! Your going to ace the 7 pounds, no worries!

I have promised myself that I will be good over Christmas so I'm not expecting to gain......but, then again I know I'll be having some booze on New Year so that could be bad :p
 
Thanks Angel!

And don't worry, you will be back down there very soon. What is your long term goal weight? Stick at it. :)
 
Hope all you people are doing well on your weight loss "adventure"!

I'm down to 123.2lbs.

4 more lbs to go for the month. It still seems daunting, but losing 2 lbs per week is not impossible either.
 
Well done for getting into the 150s Joey.
Also, you're doing great Misty - 2 pounds per week is perfectly possible - but is going to be a challenge in the next 2 weeks.
Good luck to both of you.

It is great that you are hitting new milestone lows Phoebe. It is marvellous that you have got your BMI to "normal".:party:

It is nearly the end of the month. How is everyone else doing?

I have a loss that I am happy with - but my weight is up today.

Only time will tell what my loss will be on Monday 31st December.

Start Weight (01 Dec) = 12st 10.2 lbs i.e. 178.2 pounds
07 December = 12st 8.4 lbs i.e. 176.4 pounds (total lost 1.8 pounds)
14 December = 12st 7.2 lbs i.e. 175.2 pounds (total lost 3 pounds)
21 December = 12st 5.8 lbs i.e. 173.8 pounds (total lost 4.4 pounds)

Finish Weight 31 December = 12st 0.2 lbs i.e. 168.2 pounds (total lost 10 pounds)


Total Lost in December = 10 pounds :party:

My weight loss is always skewed.
I am delighted by my overall weight loss.

In the past few days I have got into the 160s and have brought my BMI to under 30. I am now officially "overweight" after spending the past twenty years as an "obese" person (the majority of this time I was very definitely morbidly obese).

This is particularly pleasing since December is a difficult month for weight loss.
 
12/1/07 = 152.4 / 150.2 (trend / scale).
12/8/07 = 150.4 / 146.0 (trend / scale).
12/15/07 = 149.3 / 149.0 (trend / scale).
12/22/07 = 148.4 / 145.6 (trend / scale).
12/29/07 = 146.1 / 141.4 (trend / scale).
12/31/07 = 145.2 / 141.4 (trend / scale).

For a total loss in December of 7.2 pounds by trend and 8.8 by scale. More than I anticipated losing, either way!
 
I failed :(

I'm disappointed to say I lost 5 pounds however, in all fairness, I'm probably carrying excess water weight since 'that time of the month' is here and I usually carry about three pounds of water weight then.

Congrats to all who lost ANY amount of weight but, a big congrats to those who lost the seven pounds or more!!!!
 
You did *not* fail! You lost 5 pounds at a time of year when the average American gains 5. You did awesome! :)
