I was 187 in 2008, and managed to get my weight back down to 160 by Jan 1, 2010. I'm not a tall guy so for me, that was a big accomplishment. My goal this year is to maintain a healthy, lean weight.

Just thought I would drop in!

Welcome to everyone that has joined....


and I hope more join. I lose these challenges, where there is so much support for each other, weight loss is hard, but its easier with some encouragment and making great friends on this forum. I am happy I am back... Thanks to everyone who help or did set this up. I am happy you helped, fore this challenge would have gone nowhere with out you ..thanks


looking forward to the next weigh in. I walked longer today than I have in one days in the past three months. My muscles were aching bad, but I am happy I finally did it. Now on to tomorrow and a healthy dinner!

so how is everyone else feeling about the challenge?
Weigh in day is coming up soon....Even a few oz would make me happy, breaking 275 at the end of this challenge would really make my happy. What about all of you?

always Natalie jo:seeya:

Yea... Join.... the more the merrier.

I would be happy if you did. I love large weight loss groups supporting each other in the weight loss challenge. And weight loss is a challenge, for me anyhow and I am sure for many other people.

Happy to see another person ...

Welcome

always

Hey, I noticed something you said, that got me thinking. Umm I know you got down to 141.5 pounds and you may be putting yourself down. I have been doing the same thing, but I am starting to get more positive with the help of this forum and other interelationships in my community. But you may not want to focus on the bad, like you used to gain such and such a wait from your last challenge, but now you are bigger, you may want to be in the now and think, I will get myself back to 141.5 pounds, because I am strong and if I did it before, I can do it again! I know, like I should be talking oh so mighty, but that way of thinking, the negative, may keep you away from your goal, or self sabotage ...

best wishes hun
just some sight into how you said your message.

best wishes
keep trecking
always

I'm in!! :)

That week is also my birthday so I was aiming for around then anyway.

I wanted to lose a stone by then... am hoping it's not too unrealistic, but if I'm a lb or two off I'll still be happy with that!

I've lost 1.8lbs of the stone already however, so I'll be looking at just over 12lbs for this challenge. :)
 
Ah this may be a great way to start for me! so count me in :) I'm a little unsure about my goal weight since I'm JUST starting out so I'm going to pick 15 lbs and call it realistic today... we will find out exactly how realistic it is on Feb 14th lol glglgl everyone!
