Forgot to post yesterday, but did weigh
May 3 = {Estimated start = 260.9} = 257.5
May 10 = {Pace = 258.9} = 257
May 17 = {Pace = 256.8}
May 24 = {Pace = 254.8}
May 31 = {Goal = 253}
Quite pleased to have a loss of any amount as the first one was unusually low. Now have three weeks to lose four pounds.

So a little below my lowest from 2 weeks ago.
Honestly my priorities have shifted and I don't care as much about when I hit 299.2 because the loss has slowed because of lifting. I'm working my butt off, feeling good, and getting healthy. The weight will come off. Obviously I'd prefer sooner or later, but exercise is its own motivator now. I'm seeing results in my body, my breathing, my energy levels, and my mood. Suddenly the scale has lost a lot of significance.

Getting things revved back up in here:
May 3 = {Estimated start = 260.9} = 257.5
May 10 = {Pace = 258.9} = 257
May 17 = {Pace = 256.8} = 256.5
May 24 = {Pace = 254.8}
May 31 = {Goal = 253}
Pretty much right on pace now, which is good because I'd pretty much been over pace for the last four or five days. Two pounds a week from here gets me there.

Same as every other month. Weigh in once a week (doesn't matter what day, just choose one). And choose a goal weight you hope to achieve! Anyone and everyone can join in.
May 3: 139
May 10: 139.2
May 17: 137.8

My goal is 137 as it stands right now, though when I weigh in on May 3rd I may change that goal. Hoping to lose 0.5 pounds a week as I am close to my goal and things have slowed down a fair amount.
Great job everyone!!I finally had a decent weigh in after 3 weeks! Down 1.4 pounds I believe.

Thanks MrVee, but feel I'm failing at the moment. Struggling with a constant 1LB a week currently. Think I need to take a leaf out of your book, and get some more excercise mixed in with it!
You'll overtake me in no time at the rate you're going! Keep it up.Steve

Goal: 299.2 by May 31st
I would give a starting weight for the first, but I can't weigh because of a mini challenge in my contest. At 3.5 pounds a week this goal is too aggresive, but I REALLY want it! 299.2 would be 50 lbs lost and a nice bike as a reward.
April 27th 316.8 (goal)
May 4th (313.3) 317.4
No biggie. I started back lifting and I always have a big gain when I start up.
I'm still hopeful for my 299.2 goal. I was 323 at one point and it's starting to head back down.
May 11th(309.8) 316.2 Heading the right direction anyway.
May 18th (306.2) 313.2 I won't hit my goal, but a 3 pound week is awesome.
May 25th (302.7)
May 31st (299.2)
Everybody is doing great this month!
Steve, you are very close to having lost more than your goal. That's insane! Awesome work sir!

Completely not a surprise that I was up this morning. I've been desperately trying to get rid of the water weight from all the sodium I had on the weekend (including a really bad day monday) and I just couldn't do it. Combine that with a bit of fluid retention in my muscles from my new workout and being up on the scales was not at all a surprise. Oh well, it'll be interesting to see what I weigh tomorrow as I continue to come down. Only 0.2 up anyway and still staying at 30 pounds lost.

I would give a starting weight for the first, but I can't weigh because of a mini challenge in my contest. At 3.5 pounds a week this goal is too aggressive, but I REALLY want it! 299.2 would be 50 lbs lost and a nice bike as a reward.

I'm injured and so no exercise and I've made terrible food choices too.

Great job everyone. I thought it was Friday this morning so I was jumping the gun on my weigh in. Hoping to be able to have a better weigh in tomorrow than I had today!
