WISH - Thanksgiving Challenge - Week 4 Check In

[disneyfan551]

WOOHOO!! Another week down! How's everybody hanging in there? Just think, from this Thursday there's only 7 more weeks left until Thanksgiving! We have plenty of time to keep kicking these pounds off!

Finally, life is settling back down for me, and I lost 2 lbs this week! So that puts me at 3/15. Not the greatest, but whew, what a month I've had. I just have to overlook the obstacles and do what is best for me! After my 3yo dd's HUGE princess party this weekend, I think I will be alot more focused on my WW program. (requests for pixie dust needed...so I don't lose it before then! )

How's everyone doing? I'm ready to hear all about it! I'm almost done updating the challenge list, but I think we should all give CookieGVB a big hand for her new 50 lb. clippie!! :thewave: Great job!!!

I'll just copy from the other thread:

I weighed yesterday - down .5 pounds. I'm now 3.5/8 for the challenge. I'm determined to get the last 4.5 pounds off by Thanksgiving. Thanks to everyone here who offers so much encouragement and support!!

My goal this week is to make sure I stay consistent with exercising.

[d4est]

Have a loserly week everyone!

 

[goofy4wdw59]

Wishing you all continued success and down we go.

 

[Tera]

Hi Everyone!!!

Down 2.6 pounds this week for a total of 7.2 pounds. Only 7.8 pounds to go for my 15 pound goal!!!!

 

[clr1194]

2 more pounds gone!! That's 5/15, only 10 more pounds to my challenge goal.

Good luck everyone and have a great week!

 

[spiceycat]

I am not doing so great
1/5

I hope before the end of the month to start Atkins

but I love my starches - not to mention cokes.....

I need to go a whole week going drinking water and no chocolate!!!

 

[Hollyann]

Dang! Every time I enter these challenges - the scale stops moving! I haven't lost any more weight! I'm still exercising and eating right - it's only a matter of time!

 

[KJo719]

I lost 1.5 pounds this week which makes my total so far for this challenge 5.5/15 pounds.

 

[LIFERBABE]

9 days in the world, and I didnt gain a pound!!!!!!!!!



Im down 1 3/4" since my last weigh/measure on 9/21/04, but weight is holding steady. 1" is from my hips!

Im thrilled because we attended many social functions, visited Epcot for the F&W fest.

 

[luvmydogs]

WOW Tiffany! Thanks so much for compiling all our updates!

I'm not sure why this week was so good, but I'll take it--I lost 3 pounds, for a total of 11/15!

A big congratulations to all the losers out there, and BIG HUGS of encouragement to those who feel they made need some!

 

[Steve's Wife]

Just got back from weigh-in and I lost 1.5 pounds -- only 18.5 to go!

Lori
P.S. Can anyone point me in the right direction to change my countdown?

 

[Minniespal]

Sorry I haven't posted. Since I only weigh myself at the end of every month I guess I thought there was no point because I had nothing to report.

I'm still on track ~ Have increased my exercise and also changed it slightly and I do feel the benefits already.

Have a great week everyone.

 

[wtpclc]

I'm still at 4/10. After the weekend I had, though, I'll take it. I should be back to normal again now, so I hope for a nice loss this week!

 

[silver7]

I am now down 5.5 lbs, only 9.5 more to go. . .

 

[TigerBear]

Thanks Tiffany for the updated list!! I'm sure that took quite a bit of work to do.

Congratuations to july and luvmydogs who are over half way to their goal!! . Hope I didn't leave any other halfwayers out.

For those with slower loss, don't let it discourage you. We still have 7 weeks to go!! A lot can be lost in 7 weeks!! Together we can do this.

 

[DVCTiff]

Ugh - I'm up .5 so my total's 4/10. This is going sooooo slow and I've been eating so well and exercising my tushie off! I'm seeing a doctor next month to see if there may be more going on here.

In any case, BIG CONGRATS to everyone who is seeing the lbs slip away. I'm still very proud to be part of such a great group!

Have a terrific week!

 

[dizneyfam]

down .5 lb so that makes me 2/15
