Getting back in gear this month, even though I'm still battling a cold. :sick:

Please put me down for 10 pounds.

[Dizmom0923]

This is my 1st month....I will aim for 10lbs. Thank you.

[dabute]

Thanks everyone for posting and good luck with your first week of May. :goodvibes

[MiniGirl]

Was sick for a bit during last month. Didn't gain though, so that's good. (Well.... confession time..... I did gain, but I lost it again, so I'm starting this month at the same weight as last month.) Anyway, put me down for 5 please, and thanks for hosting.

{IMG]http://sunnyshopper.com/5forMay.jpg[/IMG}

Here's a clippie from Sunny if you want to use it. Just remember to change the { to a [ and the } to a ]. Hope this is what you were looking for.

[crystalcml]

Can anyone tell me what day we are supposed to weigh in?

[Nicole786]

I had to step on the scale several times and rub my eyes this morning twice to make sure what the scale was saying was correct. I lost 5 pounds this week!

So that puts me at 5/10

[donac]

Put me down for 5. I lost 5 in the last month and would love to lose more.

Glad your feeling better and are back on track. :goodvibes

I was looking for a clippie like the one for the exercise challenge. Not everyone is trying for a five pound loss. I was hoping to get something everyone could use. Thanks though, it's pretty. I'm sure some people can use it.

[dabute]

Can anyone tell me what day we are supposed to weigh in?

You can weigh in any day you want. :thumbsup2

[Ricky's Girl]

I'd like to join! :goodvibes I've lost 40 pounds since November but the past couple of months I keep losing the same two pounds over and over! Hopefully this will help get me back on track. I'm trying for 10 lbs this month. That would put me at my weight loss goal. :thumbsup2

[MelanieC]

Count me in for 1000 minutes.

I've had 60 minutes so far this month. 60/1000

[RT's Mom]

Hey everyone!

I'm new to the boards.......well, I've lurked for about 3 years but never have posted. Silly, huh???? Anyways......I would love to join the May challenge if its still okay. My goal.......12 pounds. Do I need to give you a minutes goal, too? Just let me know what I need to do.

I'm excited to get this started!!

Good luck to everyone!:goodvibes

Hi Amy,

:welcome:

The minutes are for the exercise challenge located on another thread.

Just post you weight loss whenever you weigh in and good luck. :goodvibes

[dabute]

Hi Melanie,

This is the weight loss challenge. If you have a goal to lose for the month of May let me know and I'll add you to the list. :)

[catherine]

Can you please put me down for 10lbs.

Thanks :goodvibes

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

I'm new at this thread... Put me down for 10 lbs. Now do I just post my loss each week? I love all the support I am getting from the WISH board!! Thanks all!! :goodvibes

[phorsenuf]

Jumping in here! I used to be on the WISH board many moons ago but defected. I come back in surrender mode.
I joined Weight Watchers yesterday....finally!

My goal for May will be 10 pounds. Don't know if thats a realistic goal but it would be nice. My goal is 40 in all.

Weigh-ins for me are Wednesdays.

[MiniGirl]

Glad your feeling better and are back on track. :goodvibes

I was looking for a clippie like the one for the exercise challenge. Not everyone is trying for a five pound loss. I was hoping to get something everyone could use. Thanks though, it's pretty. I'm sure some people can use it.

Thanks. It feels good to be back.

About the clippie..... no problem. It is just one I found on Sunny's WISH clippie site. She did one for every month, but they all have 5. I am completely inept at stuff like that, so I wouldn't even begin to know how to change it or design a new one. Oh well......

[BethR]

Could you add me please? I would like to lose 6 pounds in May. (Not including the .2 that I gained this week.)

Thanks for doing this dabute! :thumbsup2

[redheaded mama]

I've been looking for some motivation. I hope that reporting to this thread will be the motivation that I need.

I'm in for three lbs.

[crystalcml]

Hi there, I did my first weigh in today and I am down 3 lbs bringing my total for May to 3/10 YAY!

[jjk]

had my weigh in today lost 2lb:woohoo: 2/5 so far:goodvibes

[cats7494]

Is it too late to get in this?
I have lost 2 pounds in May but am aiming for 8 total.:goodvibes

[lorli]

Last month was a little slow but I'm off to a really good start this month. Mark me with a 4 lb loss. It feels good to lose like that.

[MelanieC]

Hi Melanie,

This is the weight loss challenge. If you have a goal to lose for the month of May let me know and I'll add you to the list. :)


RFL!! I went to add my exercise into the May Exercise challenge, and I couldn't find the post I made........DUH - no wonder, I put it here.

I do want to do the Weight Loss Challenge too.

Count me in for losing 10 pounds in May.

I'm at 0/10 till my WI next Tuesday.

[Goofy Mom]

I haven't done a challenge in a LONG, LONG time. I am ready for this one.
If it's not too late please put me down for 7lbs this month.
Thanks and good luck to all.

[dabute]

I'm down .4. Not a big loss, but still a loss.

[disneymac]

Is it too late for me to join? I joined WW about a week and a half ago and have lost 4 lbs so far - I'd like to try for 10 for the month, I think.

Thanks. I think I can use all the support groups I can get!

Do you want to show the 4 pound loss or start from 0?

[disneymac]

Do you want to show the 4 pound loss or start from 0?

I think I'd better show them - 14 in a month might be a bit much! Thanks.

[Evil Genius]

Aack!! I'm stuck not gaining not losing, just hovering.
I think it's time for more veggies, less meat this week.


Great job everyone, keep on losin'.

[AuntieM03]

Happy Monday everyone! I am down 2.7 from last week.

[luvmy2sams]

I'm down 1.5 pounds this week. Have a good week, everyone!

[denecarter]

Lost 2.4 this week... 2.4/10

[luckywife]

I lost 1.8 this week. So far I'm at 1.8/8

[jayna22]

I'm down 2.2 this week! This is the most I've lost in a week in a long time!!
That puts me at 2.2/5!
Thanks!
jana

[DawnM]

Some of you losing 10 per month better SHARE your secrets. I have never lost that much in a month, EVER!

Put me down for 5 please.

Dawn

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

You know Dawn, I said 10 for myself and I think I am nuts too. I know that is too ambitious! I think 5 is probably a little more realistic for me too...next month I'll be more on target! My weigh in is tomorrow! Good luck everyone! :thumbsup2

[mikamah]

I am up 1 pound to start this month off:guilty: So that's -1/5.
Awesome work everyone!!

[disneymac]

I lost 2 lbs this week. That puts me at 6/10.



[QUOTE=DawnM;18563162]Some of you losing 10 per month better SHARE your secrets. I have never lost that much in a month, EVER!

I think I'll make that goal this month, although last week was my first week and you always lose a little more in the first week, so I might not set my goal quite so high in the future! :goodvibes

[Keyana]

I know it is pretty loss, but I really need motivation this month as I just had surgery so continuing to loose will be a challenge. I would like to loose 4 pounds the rest of the month, I weigh in on Mondays.

Thank you for letting me join in so late.:goodvibes

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

Had my weigh in this morning - down 1.8! This is just my 3rd week on WW - I know your weight loss levels off after the first couple weeks, but it is a little discouraging... my first week I lost 3.6, second week 2.6 and third week 1.8. So I have lost 8 pounds total!! Yay! Where should my weight loss level off? I really hope I can lose 2 lbs next week so I will hit the 10 lb mark! I know I need to exercise more - so I am off for an hour walk with my sweetie lab, Bailey. Bye for now! :wave:

[phorsenuf]

I had my first WW weigh-in today. I lost 2.4 pounds. I was hoping for more but I have to remind myself thats one week. If I can do almost that for a month thats close to 10 pounds!

[cats7494]

Hi all!
I lost three pounds this week - so I am now at 5 pounds of 8 for the month of May.
I am sticking with it this time around and it seems to be working! lol Amazing what happens when you eat better and exercise!

[lori1043]

If this is not just for WW people I'd like to be put down for 5 for the rest of the month. If only for WW -ignore this!!! I like this challenge thing and am new to these particular boards. I am wanting to lose 15(20 would be exhilirating!) and keep it off!
I used to do WW and did well on it-but I am giving something else a try starting this week.

Lori

[crystalcml]

I've lost 1 lb this week bringing my total to 4/10

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

Hello again and TGIF everyone! I guess I didn't officially post my weight lost from last week (I weighed in on 5/2) and it was 2.6 lbs. (this week 5/9 my loss was 1.8, which I already posted) So my total May loss should be 4.4 I think.
I hope I can stay OP this weekend.....Bunco....Mother's Day.....help!!! Give me strength not to overeat!!!!:scared:

[jjk]

lost 1lb this week so thats 3/8

[lorli]

I've lost 1.6 pounds this week new total of 5.6/8. Thanks for hosting this.

[Evil Genius]

0 that's right zero. Not losing, not gaining. AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!

[AuntieM03]

I am down 1lb.

3.7/8

[Keyana]

Great job everyone! :cheer2:

I weighed in today and am down 1 this week. (My first week since surgery so I am down 1/4).

Keep at it everyone!:goodvibes

[luckywife]

I weighed in last night. I lost another 1.2 pounds for a total of 3 pounds so far this month.....3/8 :)

Good job everyone!

[Goofy Mom]

At this time I am only down 1/7. It sure doesn't seem as easy to drop the pounds as it used to be. I think I really need to add more exercise to my program. I walked yesterday for 30 minutes. I use to walk every day for an hour but it seems harder to get to that these days. I'm painting a bedroom today, does that count for exercise? Hopefully I can get out and walk while the paint is drying. Hope everyone has a good week.
Take Care!

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

Weighed in today (a day early) and I am down 1.4! Yeah! I was hoping for it to be 2 but close enough! Have a great week everyone! :wave:

[disneymac]

Weighed in yesterday - I lost 3 lbs! That brings me to 9/10 - now I'm back to the weight I was before I fractured my foot & was in a cast for 3 months! So I feel like I'm really just starting now, but I'm very excited and I'm feeling really motivated to do this.

Good luck everybody!

[Nicole786]

2 more pounds! that puts me at 7/10

[denecarter]

Down 4.4 this week... total of 6.8/10 :yay:

[jayna22]

I'm down .4 this week. That puts me at 2.6/5! I'm getting there!
Thanks!
jana

[phorsenuf]

Weigh in yesterday was a lost of 1.2. Not as much as I would lie, but every bit helps, right?

[mikamah]

I'm down 1 pound this week, so I'm back to 0/5.

Great job everyone!!:cool1:

[jjk]

lost 1lb this week so thats4/8

[lorli]

Hi I had an ok week, I've lost another 1.8, wish it was more but it is steady my May weight loss is 7.4.

[crystalcml]

I've lost 3 lbs this week bringing my total to 7/10

[Nicole786]

2 pounds! that puts me at 9/10!

[AuntieM03]

I am down 3lbs:banana: 6.7/8

[Keyana]

:goodvibes Weighed in today, down another 1.5 pounds, that puts me at 2.5/4, for 2 weeks, not too shabby, anything in the neg direction works for me!

[mikamah]

This is not my month, up 1.4 today, for +1.4/5. Hopefully I'll lose that on my last weighin.

Great work everyone!!!

[abbybeth]

I've lost 1 pound so far :sad2:

[denecarter]

-5.4 this week... 12.2/10 :yay:

[disneymac]

WI tonight - I gained 1 lb. :guilty: - I was actually expecting it to be worse. Back to the grindstone!

[jkp_9192002]

I LOST 6.6/10. YEAHHHHHHHH!!!!! I JUST KNOW THAT I WILL REACH MY GOAL.
LITTLE BLACK DRESS HERE I COME.:cool1:

[luckywife]

I gained .2 this week. No way I'm going to make my monthly goal of 8 pounds but that's ok, will try harder next month

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

Weighed in today - lost another 1.4 lbs!! Woo Hoo!! I am not going to make 10 lbs for the month obviously, but I guess it doesn't hurt to set your goals a bit high. Next month I will try to be more realistic. Happy Weight loss everyone!!!:thumbsup2

[TinkerBelle_325]

I'm a bit late, but put me down for 5lbs because I just started South Beach Phase 1

[phorsenuf]

Had my weigh-in. Down another 2 for a total of 5.6. Won't hit my 10 but I'm still aiming. Can't give up.

On a side note, is anyone having trouble updating their ticker? I can't even get to the screen where I can change it. Can anyone help?

[jkp_9192002]

i weighed in today i lost .6 lbs total of 7.2 lbs

[jkp_9192002]

that would be 7.2/10!!!!!

[lorli]

BooHoo, I found those .6 so I am now at 6.8/8. One more week and I can do it.

[Nicole786]

I lost 1.5 pounds this week, putting me at my goal: 10.5/10! thanks!

[denecarter]

Last weigh-in of May for me... down another 1.2 for 13.4/10 :yay:

[AuntieM03]

I am down 1.4, that puts me at 8.1/8

[DawnM]

I have lost 4 pounds this month. That is much better than I WAS doing.

I think I said I would lose 5, so I am close!

Dawn

[Andrea_loves_Disney]

WI this morning....I am down 1.8!!! Yay! I did better than I thought I would this week! May's almost over...I hope I can do as well in June! Happy weight loss everyone!!!:cool1:

[DaniDownUnder]

Hi all..wanted to join but started too late in the month. Is there a June challenge thread already out there somewhere? I've tried to do a search but keep getting a completely blank (white) screen. Very weird.

Cheers.

DDU

[dabute]

No one has started one yet. I'm doing the exercise challenge. I could do both, if no one starts one. I don't want to be a hog though. ;)

[tiberius]

oops, wrong thread

[disneymac]

My WI is on Mondays and it was cancelled due to the holiday, so I went to a different meeting tonight to get weighed in. I am new to WW, so I felt like I really couldn't skip a meeting this soon if I want to stay on track!

I am so glad I went to the trouble! I lost 3.2!! I'm so excited! That's 11.4 since I started on 4/23!! Yahoo! :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

Good luck to everyone else and thanks for your support!

[phorsenuf]

Down another pound this week which is quite amazing since I spent a few days in the North End of Boston (think Little Italy). I had 2 cannolis! :scared1:

[Goofy Mom]

Well, I didn't end up the month as I had thought but I guess I am no worse off than when I started as I am now 0/7. Looks like I'll have to try harder in the new month.
Wishing everyone a successful June!

[jkp_9192002]

i weighed in today at 8.4 lbs. so that's 8.4/10

[cats7494]

I made it! I actually lost 9 pounds this month and my goal was 8! I am gonna keep this up!!
:goodvibes

[lorli]

No way I can't believe it, I just made it. I weighed in yesterday, on my birthday, not the day after mind you ( I knew I was having cake, first time in 6 months) and lost 1.2 pounds meaning I made my goal. Yeah for me. Thanks for hosting.

[lorli]

i weighed in today at 8.4 lbs. so that's 8.4/10

You did a good job, think of it this way, you are 8.4 pounds lighter than last month.

[Lesli54]

I lost a total of 1.5/10. I was doing much better, but then I stumbled. Oh well, at least it is a loss and I can do better in June.
