Default 5 pound challenge #327

Welcome

Time for a new Challenge!

Congratulations to everyone who participated in the last Challenge.

nihold! was our winner, so we begin again!

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, or after the last 5 lbs to go name...sometimes we bounce past the 5 lbs to go...yes it happens.
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
Move yourself up in the ranks accordingly.
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.

I gained back the pound and a half I lost during the last challenge. Must have been the pound of cheese I ate over a couple of days. A couple ounces is OK, but not a pound! Hands and knees all swelled up.

Congrats Nihold!

Four solid days on plan under my belt. Feeling pretty good about that. Plans for today, cheeseburger with mayo dipping sauce for two meals, bowl of LC veggies with butter for snack, 2 BPC coffee and possibly a chocolate fat bomb, although I want to eliminate this, they did however help me get back on plan. Really had to up my fat and lower my protein to get there. Still learning.
