Shall we play again?
I brought the rules over from the last one.

This is a challenge to lose 5 pounds at a time, hence the name "5 Pounds Challenge."
Anyone can join at anytime.
Just copy the list and add your name at the bottom of the list.
You use the start-weight from the day when you join this challenge, (You always start at 5.0 lbs to go.)
Update your weight as often as you like, moving yourself up when you lose.(remember to change the ranking)
When someone loses 5 lbs we will start a new thread and begin again.
There can be more than one winner! Good Luck!

Let the game begin.

Nice loss barb, I'm down a little myself. I am a slow but determined loser.

Thanks, Scotiagirl, and yay for us! Same here. Slow and steady wins the race.

OK, this number I have not seen in a very long time, I am very, very happy. Now I want to hold on to it, then go down...is that too much to ask?

Whoosh! I'm highly suspicious because I was not feeling so well the last couple of days and didn't eat much and so this might be at least partly temporary, but I'm hoping to stay in the 220s now. Fingers crossed!

Well, I'm continuing to hold up the rear as I've actually gained a pound. Grrrr

I had a feeling I'd rebound some. Still working on staying in the 220s.

Back up a pound, but I've been completely on plan and I'm really hoping a whoosh is on the way.

It's time to jump back on the wagon! Last fall I lost almost 10 lbs and then the Holidays came and I gained it all back plus. I have NAFLD (non alcoholic fatty liver disease) and need to take care of my liver before I get into more dangerous territory. I'm glad you still have this challenge going.
