Hey sue! 

My horsey is a paint.  But he has a lot of quarter bloodlines. 

He's getting OLD THOUGH 16!  My mom has a nice little quarter horse yearling I might get.  She's a bay!  It would be nice not to have to wash so much stinking whiteness when I show!

It'm excited!

I'll upload a pic of her on my profile.

Happy Weigh-in Day!

 

Height: 5' 3"

Starting: 137

Current: 121.8

GW by Halloween: 118

I'm down 1.2!  I would love to see this trend continue, but I'll be perfectly content with a simple .5 pound every week. 

I'm down! I'm like in two other groups, but I totally need this, hehe. It helps me to stay on track when I have others to account to.

height: 5'3

Starting weight: 140lbs

Current weight: 123lbs

GW by halloween: 119lb

I forgot to weigh myself this morning, i'll have to do it tomorrow!
Aight,

Just weighed in.

147 is the magic number I am going to go out on a limb and shoot for 140 by halloween.

Today I ate just under 1500 cals and did a step aerobics dvd.  I was supposed to do upper body but I went to my bro's football game so I will do that tomarrow. 

I just weighed in...

it's my time of the month so this'll be even harder...i'm craving candy!

I'm just now seeing this Thread and I'd like to join here is my day late post. Looks like we have a lot of ppl, but my experience on the boards tells me most will likely stop posting :-(

H: 5"5.75

SW:151.something lol

CW: 145.5

I have been having really bad eating habits lately so I'm hoping I can get on track and stay on track. I'm also begining my work out routine of 3-5 times a week. I hope everyone does well.Laughing

just wanted to welcome all the new members to this group :) as for me, my weight is hovering over 109 lbs.. it's like my plateau at 110 lbs is teasing me, ha.. but i won't give up just yet!

anyways, i'm looking foward to the weigh-in on monday (oct. 6).. halloween is getting closer! good luck everyone <333

So, what is everyone doing today to keep on track?  I went running this morning in preparation for my 5k on Saturday.  I think for a first 5k I should do pretty well (I hope). 

Last night I totally overate which isn't that common for me on a weekday (esp. Monday).  I usually overeat on the weekend.  Maybe my body was confused since I was actually good this weekend for the first time in a while.  Anyway, I am pretty disappointed in myself because of it.  I will not repeat that mistake any time soon.  I really want to lose a few more pounds and then keep them off.

How is everyone?

* Weigh-in day will be every Monday, starting September 29th, and weight updates should be posted as follow:

height:5'3"

starting weight:170 on the 29th

current weight: today the 30th 168

I'd like to do this.  Thanks.

I haven't forgotten to weigh-in... we just don't have a scale in our dorm yet. But that'll all be changed by next monday! So I'm still here just not sure of the official weight till next week =)

So, who has picked out their halloween costumes already?

Am I too late to join? this looks like a great challenge, and it'll keep my motivation going.

Sorry, forgot to post yesterday!

but i lost 1 pound!

Down to 104. Just 4 more pounds!

Good luck to everyone!!

I am reporting in today.  So far success.

I ate around 1400 calories.  Did a step aerobics dvd and lifted upper body. 

YEAH

Well I'm happy to say I haven't gone over my calorie limit today. I've been trying to stay at or real close to 1500, but today is the first day I didn't go over at all. Yay me! lol Yesterday I spent 45 minutes on the elliptical and I wasn't too much over on my calories so i guess i'm ok. And today I walked a mile with my kids (they're 2 years and 6 weeks so I was pushing them in their stroller) and jumped on my trampoline for around 15-20 minutes. My legs hurt today from the elliptical yesterday but hopefully I'll be able to get back on it by tomorrow.
