End of the August Challenge!

Well, I finished up Tammy's Challenge for the month of August with a 9.6 weight loss. I checked in at 255.4. I'm good with that. Now if I could do that every month I'll be happy.

I'm going to have a challenge in October. I've been too busy to get one going for September. I'll work on that this month so it's good to go.

I'm hoping to check in again very soon and be in the 40's. Woohoo! That would be so awesome.

A new challenge!

Well, I'm starting another challenge. This was is being put on again by Tammy for the month of August. I need to get my butt in gear. After struggling with WW for 3 months I've decided to take on this challenge and see how I do. I'm a bit late getting started. Everyone else started on August 1st but since I've been away on holidays I thought "better late that not at all ... right? Anyway, we'll see how that goes. I probably won't get started till Monday but that still gives me a good amount of time to work at it.

After being away for 11 days I was expecting an awful sight on the scales. I thought that I might even see the 70's. Thank goodness I didn't. I first weighed in this morning at 260.2 and then I stepped on and off 4 times because I couldn't believe that I didn't gain a ton of weight. By the end I finally settled on 265.0. Not good but not in the 70's and that makes me very happy.

I'm planning on having a challenge myself in September so pass along to anyone you know about it once I get a name for it. I think I'll be giving away a couple of Biggest Loser books I have as prizes. I'll think about a name in the next few weeks and post about it.

Good luck to everyone on this challenge if you're taking part. Otherwise, I hope you all doing well.
