Well, today was my official weigh-in, but the scale hasn't budged from my midweek weight. So, week 1 of the challenge has me down 3.4 lbs, and I'm good with that. Bring on week 2!

I would like to join you all! It's so nice to do this with someone, even if only through the computer :-) I want to lose 130lbs. I started on 4/12/09 ~ 265lbs. I weighed in yesterday ~ 252!

Congrats to everyone on your losses thus far! WE CAN DO IT!

Good Job Faun!!!!!!

Welcome Ashley!
Thanks for joining us in this journey!

Hoosier! Thanks for catching all these updates.

As for myself, im still keepin on!!!! My ketosis level this morning was in the moderate 80 level so i was happy about that at least. did a coupleof unofficial weigh ins and although im not reporting them lets just say my nerves have calmed down a lil bit. I also took measurements so that when i dont have a losing week i can at least take my measurements and see how they go as well.

I need to go get a tape measure. I would really like to see the inches go down more than just my weight.

I have never tested myself for ketosis where do the strips come from? I figure I keep this yucky taste in my mouth that I am staying on track..........but maybe not.

Glo, you can get the testing strips at any drug store. I got my ketostix from Walgreens
This time i bought Bayer Ketostix and the Walgreens store brand just to compare.
Good luck in your weigh in!

Can I join even though you all started a couple of weeks ago? My weight at the beginning of April was 262. I have just joined the LC forum and am looking forward to the support.

Mycufree
we all are either returners, restarters, or newly starting, or newly motivated or whatever! Feel free to come on in!

the waters fine.

Hoosier has a really good spreadsheet and has been keeping up with the weight progressions each week. Its not a race or a competition just a good network of us all with common positive goals so come on in.

Thanks to all of you for the friendly welcome! It will be nice to be able to interact from some like-minded low carbers. I attend a weight loss support group, but none of them are low carbing.
