Hi Everyone. We are almost halfway through September. The weather is cooling and before long we will have a freeze and the leaves will turn beautiful fall colors. It is time to start thinking of shedding some pounds in preparation for the Holidays. Ten pounds would be an appropriate goal. Think of how great you will look ten pounds lighter than you do right now. Think of how terrific you will look in Holiday fashions. Now is the time to start.
I have good news. I lost 4 pounds so weigh 121.5. I am thrilled to pieces. I hope I can stay on track and get back to 115. I will try to lose a whole pound this coming week. I know it won’t be easy and I will have to stay motivated. Christmas here I come.
Agate, sorry to miss you this week and hope you are on a losing streak.
Mamabug, good for continuing the losing streak. That is terrific that you remain in the 120's. I hope you remain on your program. Keep up the good work.
Hsmaldo, what a nice loss. Stay on the right track and you will soon have lost ten pounds. Keep up the momentum.
Msgijo, congratulations on losing. It may not be a lot but it counts. Thank you for your suggestions. I will take them to heart as I forge ahead. Keep the faith.
Poohb3ar, sorry to miss you and hope all is well. I hope the season is treating you well.
For those who may have an interest in joining our dedicated group, our members each have their own personal methods of weight loss. Some are on Weight Watchers, some on Atkins for example and some just cut calories. I personally lost quite a lot of weight in the beginning using Atkins and then just cut portions while eating everything. The method is not the most important thing, it is staying focused and following the plan.
We post weight loss, gain, stayed the same, from Thursday to Thursday and have been doing so for over 16 years. We are truly dedicated to get rid of those pesky pounds and keep them off. You don’t have to state your actual weight. It’s a matter of choice.
Tip For The Week:

Try Intermittent Fasting
Intermittent fasting is a popular eating pattern in which people cycle between periods of fasting and eating.
Short-term studies suggest intermittent fasting is as effective for weight loss as continuous calorie restriction.
Additionally, it may reduce the loss of muscle mass typically associated with low-calorie diets. However, higher-quality studies are needed before any stronger claims can be made.
Weight Loss Results:
Total Loss:
6.9 pounds by four members. What a great week! Everyone reporting showed a loss. It is proof that it can be done. May we all continue on the same path,
Total Gain:
No gains were reported this week.
Stayed The Same:
0 members. As we know, staying the same truly is success, including for those who are maintaining. Just keep remembering it is the time before the next loss if you have more to lose. Also staying the same is a signal that you are eating the right amount to maintain your losses.
4141.9 is the total weight loss for the past 16+ years. We hit a new milestone. We now have lost over two tons for which we should be proud. That truly is phenomenal.
