I've lost 1lb this week, which I'm really happy with. I lost 10lbs over the last 2 weeks, so I wasn't sure if I would lose anything this week. That puts me at 1/10

Checking in for the week... I am down 2 lbs this week, for a total of 3.5 of my 10 lb goal. However, we are celebrating an early Thanksgiving at my DGM's this weekend, since we leave for Disney the day after Thanksgiving. Here's hoping I can control myself!

I think I may finally start exercising to bump things up a notch! :earseek:

I lost 2.5 pounds since last thursday when I started this challenge. I have been sick with a cold this week so I am wondering if my weight will go up a little after my cold goes away. If not then that is 2.5 out of 5. Half way there already.:D
Everyone else is doing fantastic. Just think of how great we will be feeling by the time turkey time rolls around!:D

I wanted to lose 2 pounds by T-day and I have already lost them. However, I have a problem maintaining so I'm going to work extra hard to make sure those 2 pounds don't sneak back! :D

A slow beginning for me and the Turkey Day Challenge. I lost .25 this week and .50 last week, so at least I am able to post a little loss. That makes me .75/10. I'm hoping for a make-up whoosh somewhere down the road.

I Have lost 1lb since last Thursday:bounce:
Really pleased because when I weighed myself on Monday I hadn't lost anything. So happy with 1lb loss:hyper:
That makes me 1/7:wave2:

I'm happy to report 3 pounds gone this week (and a new GOLD clippie, and my first 10% goal). This puts me at 4/10 for the challenge!

Gobble gobble! :p

I think my check-in got buried on the other thread. I'm done 2.5 lbs. since I started the challenge with 7.5 to go for my 10 lb. loss!

Hi, everyone! I went on vacation last weekend and gained 7 lbs!! But, I have lost all of them. Thank-Goodness! I'm NOT counting a pound of them on my Thankgiving Challenge, so for this week, I have nothing to report. Everyone is doing great. :-) Keep up the great work and I'll check-in again next week. :-) 0/10

This week I'm the whoosh fairy's biggest fan! Five pounds this week!:Pinkbounc That makes me 5/10. Whatever made me think I could lose 10???:confused: Hey, nothing ventured and nothing gained, right? I might as well give it a try!

It's onward and downward for all of us!

Well I didn't do so good this week, between cheating on a little Hallloween candy and then getting the stomach flu and blowing my low carb diet by eating chicken noodle soup and saltines I actually gained 3 pounds :mad: this week. Next week can only get better LOL. I now have 8 pounds to loose instead of my original 5, but I am back on program today and I even did my 2 mile WATP tape tonight.

Only .8 lbs this week but it's not a gain so I'll take it. That makes me .8/5. Next week will be better I hope! ::yes::

I lost another lb. last week so for the challenge I'm 3.5/10.

Even if I don't lose all 10 by turkey day I'm still happy with the journey I'm taking!

What a great attitude, Mary!! I really like your style!! :D

I finally had some movement on the scale this week and lost 2.75 pounds. That gives me 3.5/10. With only 2 1/2 weeks to go, unless I get a big, big whoosh, I may not make the goal. But I'm gonna take a page out of Mary's book and enjoy the journey!! At least I will weigh less than when I started!

Hi, everyone! Wow, you guys are doing great!

I'm down 7 pounds! I also got my 30 lb. clippie! & lost my vacation weight. It was a great week for me! The downside is TOM came today, but the upside is, maybe I'll get a nice whoosh! :)

7/10
