Good luck for the final weigh in tomorrow everyone!

Retrovert - Ah ok, i live about half an hour south of Auckland near Huntly!
But we're in the processes of moving to Hamilton.

Halizabeth - Thanks, i feel better now!
Not sure what was wrong with me last night.
0.8 isn't too much to lose! It's ok.
It's a fresh start, you can lose it again!

Babyfat29 - Welcome to your first challenge!
I've found them very helpful so i hope you find it a positive experience too!
I hope you have a great month.

Tigzy - Welcome to our little gang! I hope you enjoy it.
Slow weight loss is good weight loss, it's easier to maintain!
So stick with it, slow and steady wins the race!

Ceclark77 - How exciting! i hope your appointment goes well.
I put you down as maintaining.

Irothell - Oh cool, how did the Marathon go?

Tonic588 - Sounds like this could be a great month for you then! I hope you get to break that 60's mark!

Yerushalem - Good good, sometimes its easier to implement a new regime when when there are also a lot of other changes going on.
Don't push yourself too hard though, make your changes realistic and achievable.
You're can do this!

Kaffwynn - Hope your new exercise regime goes well!

Keb1984 - Wow congratulations on being half way to your goal! That's great!
With any luck this challenge will help you get a little closer!

Bobev - Welcome back! glad you found us.
I posted the link in the August OP but some seemed a little slow to notice it.
Oops.
Anyway, glad you're here now!
Hope you can get to your November goal!

Oakmommy24- Happy birthday!... For yesterday. lol.

Shanfood - Ah i'm the perfect candidate to run a challenge, at the moment i don't go to school and i don't work lol.
So i have plenty of spare time...
This gives me something constructive to do and i enjoy the whole "weight loss scene."
I find it fun keeping track of everyone!
Hope you have a good month!

Olivia77 - Nope don't think you did.
I didn't have you up on the list anyway.
Welcome back for September! :)

Pgeorgian - Sweet as, no weight lectures!
I know how weight fluctuates, especially with pms and everything.
Try not to stress about it! with any luck you'll lose it quickly.

Retrovert - Cool, hope you enjoy the challenge.

Bevroche - Best of luck getting below 190 this month!!
Thinking about the lose and gain, lose and gain pattern, are you making sure your goals are realistic and maintainable?
I.E. not cutting out TOO many calories and not trying to work out too much.
Just something to think about i guess.
Anyway, hope you have a great month for September!

Pestica02 - Welcome to CC and your first challenge! I hope you really enjoy it.
Lol thanks, but these challenges would be nothing without participants so thank you for joining!

Pokadotdpanties - Sweet, welcome to the group! I added you to the list.
Hope you enjoy it and see you next Monday!
120 calories isn't much, won't do any damage so don't worry about it. :]

Agdotto63 - I hope this challenge gives you the motivation you're looking for!
I was looking for a challenge back in July but couldn't find the one i was wanting, so i started this one.
And since, it's been very motivating for me so i hope it is for you too!

Lil_Lady011 - Welcome to the gang!

Mischiefdm - You're doing great! 39.8lbs is a brilliant loss!
Good job.
I hope you have another great month!

I'll have to weigh in tomorrow.
Too much water/food weight if i weigh myself now!
I'm finally home, yay! So i'll have my scales in the morning.

... Bad news, real-estate agent put a REALLY low value on our house ($60k less then we thought it would be valued at) so my mum had to withdraw her offer on the house we wanted!
She's going to try and sell it privately for as much as possible... and if the house we were wanting is still on the market, and we can sell the house for that little bit more, then we might still get it.
But who knows.
We'll just have to wait and see how the next couple of weeks go!

Anyway, best be off!
Hope you all have a great week!

Looking for slightly more than 2.5 pounds per week, so pretty ambitious here.  We'll see how it goes...

Sadly, not a great start.  My starting weight on 9/1 is higher than my ending weight from the last challenge...

I wasn't in last month, but I'm in for September - I need some motivation!  LOL!

Sorry, couldn't post yesterday, my laptop at home has a virus, I had to wait until I got to work to use the computer here.  I hope it's fixed soon, it makes me crazy not to have computer access at home!  It wasn't a great weekend.  Fridge broke, so no cold food...ate takeout...

I'm aiming high this month! lol.
I can do it! i just have to get off my lazy bum and exercise lots this month.
And i WILL do it!
I'll do 30 minutes on the bike every day... Right after i've updated all your new weigh ins!

Ledgehanger - Set your sights high and work your ass off until you get there!
Lol sounds good to me.
Goodluck for your next weigh in, if you work out really hard you'll get there!
Don't let that 0.9 gain bug you.

Nev2179 - Welcome to september! I hope you enjoy it and find it motivating!
If you have any questions, just let me know.

Future_tadddei - Thats the spirit, keep it up!

Earth_mom - Lol sweet as, hope you have a great week!

Jamie5978 - Welcome to the challenge! I hope you enjoy it.
Good luck for your next weigh in!

Orangeloft - Sweet as, no rush.
As long as i get your weights sometime in the week its ok.

Rwbsmom - Gees i'd die without my laptop!
Would certainly make doing these challenges harder...
Anyway, i hope your lappy is fixed soon! and wow, bugger about your fridge too.
I hope your week gets a little better now!

Jlynnj - Sweet as, i was only just about to weigh in too!

Thanks for the badge restless girl!

Oakmommy24 - Oh, you're welcome! You deserve it!
