Hey Mchen, getting to the "normal" category is a huge accomplishment. I don't know where you started but it doesn't matter, hitting that milestone should be celebrated...non food celebration of course .

Hello again everybody! I dropped out last year, probably about this time, doing pretty well, but of course since then my weight ever so slowly but ever so steadily crept back up again to 74kg, 163 lbs. I have to take my eating habits (and drinking habits - those lovely glasses of red wine with dinner and fattening quantities of cheese, olives and other nibbles don't help) back in hand, so, if that's OK, I would like to join the challenge again. I'm happy to see many of the same names still here - I hope you've done better than I have!
I got rid of the first 4 lbs and am now at 159 but would like to get down to 150 by Independence Day. Not being American, I don't celebrate, but if I reached my goal, I would! I actually need to get down to 136 lbs - I have dodgy legs, much better with less weight! but slowly slowly catchie monkey, so I'll make do with 150 by 4th July to begin with!

Thanks Hiker and BJ!! I was pretty excited myself as this comes at the one year anniversary of my lifestyle change. I started at 205 lbs, joined this site in June at 195 lbs, and here I am today with a 46 lb loss so far. It's been super slow progress for me, and I still have a lot of bad habits to break (hence the weekend challenge ). Thanks to you all and to this site for helping me get this far.

Hi Artist John
I'm trying to get the colour to change to red. I don't know if it's my computer but I'm highlighting the part I want in red increasing the size and when I send it it's still black and the same size.
Apologies it's just not happening....
Anyway I want to record a fantastic result I lost 5lb and now weigh

Ok, I am still holding at 133lbs. That's a small miracle the way I have been eating. Going to try real hard to keep it together this weekend. Then maybe I can lose something next week instead of making up for a bad weekend. It's worth a shot.

Yes, but I grew up in Holland with metres and kilogrammes and for me a stone is just a heavy thing. However, I really took to pints ... I'm now trying to lose both stones and pints as they add up to what I still cannot pronounce: lbs, 159 of them.

Holding at 55.5kg (122.2lb). I think it is fair to say that the calorie intake estimates I've used for the last few months were wild underestimates and the more potatos featured in my eating, the less reliable they were and given this I had done pretty well! Yesterday was day 11 under the '1700' calorie scheme (with the caveat just described) though I have changed the way I account for potatos so I have a bit more confidence in this now. Oh, I just realise we're halfway through the challenge period! Here is my graph.

Why thank you very much! I believe it's due to the reduction in carbs that I was doing the past week. The 4 weeks prior to that I was losing only a tiny bit and that loss was mainly seen with the tape measurer. During those 4 weeks my calories were low and I was exercising but I was eating a lot of carbs. So I dropped those down and voila I'm getting more of a loss. So cutting down my carbs (not drastically though) seems to be working for me.

125.0.
Put that pound back on. Not surprising, given everything that went into my mouth over the course of the past week. However, I had a good day today and hope to be back down to 124 by the next weigh-in.

Not bad so far! I'm down (almost) a pound. This week I'm at:
182.8
My eating habits haven't been very good this week but the warm weather we've been having has kept me out and active so I guess it evened out in the end. Next weeks weather forecast isn't very good so I'd better be more careful with my diet.

| Current weight 127.1, down 1.1 from last week. I have really kicked the exercise up a notch and I think it is showing on the scale. Now if I can just keep at it. I am actaully finding some classes I really like and that obviously helps.

Ok last person I upset was Greentea, still humbly begging her forgiveness having wrongly accusing her of not posting
Lets try again; Missing persons Stuchsara and Nicole. According to my records you are due to be cut and are overdue a post or two!!
Please put me right and I will amend my records and beg more forgiveness

GO GIRL! that is AWESOME!!!!! I wish I could do the same...somehow i am still sitting in this 166-165 range, and its making me Completely Insane!  
You said you are cutting carbs...good girl...i think my mistake has been that i am eating a little more because i am exercising so much away...but i gotta stop because its keeping me in maintenance and not loss. I just need to eat 1200 a day and not deduct any exercise away and maybe then i will start to lose again!!!! Ugh! Its so hard to do this dieting thing! Even to make a life change its so hard! I just gotta keep pluggin! Me and Once upon a thin girl will get thru these 170-160's!!!!!  
Keep up the hard work MichelleP, i think it is fantastic and inspiring!

its ok sweetie.....we are all there with you      (all of us six weekers.....) each day is hard to do sometimes! Good for you for being honest with us and with yourself...that is half the battle I feel. :)
Have a good time this weekend with your friends and parties, dont worry about the dieting and you will probably do just fine. I did last week and stayed the same...surprise surprise! :) If I can you can too!!! :)

Thanks again for the words of encouragement. I'm still blaming the losses on my lower carb way of eating especially since I've exercised less and ate more fat this past week and still managed to drop 3 pounds. I can find no other explanation. So I continue on this journey.....
I too intend on getting through the 170's and on to the 160's and beyond. Keep working hard and you will succeed!
