I'll be weighing in tomorrow and hoping that half hour in the sauna doesn't put me artificially low!

I'm in! I'd fix this up but it's too hard on my iPad lol
(Ok, I'm just being lazy! lol )
My start is 258.2
This fits in nicely with the 90 day finish strong challenge, for over the holiday ... I started it late and so set my goal weight at 250, shooting for down 8.

This is a challenge to lose 5lbs at a time, hence the name "5 Pounds Challenge."

Anyone can join at anytime. Just add your name with 5 lbs to go. Update your weight as often as you like and move yourself up in the ranks accordingly. When someone loses 5lbs we will start a new thread and begin again. *There can be more than 1 winner in the same day*

GOOD LUCK!

...jschwab? do you think that's from the sauna and bouncing back up the next day? I was just curious.

I didn't weigh this morning.. I've had a stomach ache for a day, didn't sleep well last night, was up at 2 am taking some tylenol, so I just skipped it this morning.

No, I think I ate plantains yesterday and the day before LOL. Not quite my normal plan for carbs. I also have some inflammation from working my muscles. I'm trying very hard to get stronger in the shoulder and back area.

I am toying with not weighing in, too. I'm already dressed but I wasn't able to go to sleep until 3am. I'm having very frequent urination for some reason and just some serious personal worries.

I did weigh in, but, no, I can't post. Plantains are evil, y'all.

PLANTAINS!

I won't be weighing in for three days because I am going tent camping/hunting. Maybe the freezing weather will burn something off of me.
