And. We're. Done.

Starting Weight: 198.2 pounds
End of Week One: 194.4 pounds
End of Week Two: 194.4 pounds
End of Week Three: 192 pounds
End of Week Four: 191.5 pounds
End of Week Five: 195.8 pounds
End of Week Six: 193.6 pounds
Difference this week: -2.2 pounds
Weight lost since beginning GO! in December: -38 pounds
Goal: 175-180 pounds
Points: 672

Having my vacation straddle two GO! weeks really wreaked havoc on my score and my weight. For the fifth week I recorded a score of 605 points and was up 4.3 pounds. For the sixth week I recorded a score of 672 and was down 2.2 pounds, but still up 2.1 pounds from my week four weigh-in.

Can't say I'm looking forward to playing another round of GO! right now even though I know that when I stop playing it's too easy to get lazy and pack the pounds back on. Like Vanessa, I'll probably give it a week and then be ready to play again. I think a four-week game is about my limit. After that I start to resent all the rules and begin thinking about all the things I'd rather do than go to bed early or work on a habit.

Till next time.
My score for week 6 was 735. I have to admit, I didn't lose much weight, only 3 lbs. I did enjoy just thinking about this everyday and working on my habits, water, exercise. If I did this again, I think I would be more dedicated to the food part. I think!!

Vanessa - Week #6 and the Tenacious Twosome Week #6 Score

Starting weight: 153
Ending weight: 148.6
Difference:-4.4
Goal weight:145
Weekly Points - 500

TT Week #6 Score -652

Overall average - 714

TOTAL WEIGHT LOST THIS GO! ROUND - 4.1

I am going to admit to being relieved this GO! round is over.  I have encountered so many stumbling blocks this round.  Looking back, I am thankful to have had the framework of GO! to keep me somewhat on track.  I always look forward to the end of each GO! round, but then within a week I am ready to play again because it is a quick, slippery slope right back to where I started. 

Thank you all for playing!  It was fun...GO! V

Week 6

I thought the purpose was to improve and loose weight. I have gone downhill these past few weeks. I did maintain my weight which was amazing. That 20 minutes of exercise everyday makes all the difference. My score for the week 630 and would of been better if I did not have to take penalty points. I love this game. It has helped me change so many things. I appreciate everyones support.

Keep working hard and don't fall back into your old habits.

Week 6

Points this week 804

Starting weight 147.6
End weight 146
Loss 1.6

This game has been a lot harder than I thought it would be. However, I'm really glad I participated. I wasn't able to loose as much as I hoped but I did loose 6 lbs. I'm going to work really hard at sticking to it. I don't want to put the weight back on while I'm out of town the next 2.5 months. Maybe I'll even be able to loose more.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement and support

Congrats!

No More But...ts is kicking everyone else in the butt!  Good job ladies!

Lean Mean Machines

Karon pulled us out on this one, our score was 704. Camping is pretty hard on diets, too much alcohol and of course all the good food. This next week is going to be a good one.

Week 4

Starting Weight: 198.2 pounds
End of Week One: 194.4 pounds
End of Week Two: 194.4 pounds
End of Week Three: 192 pounds
End of Week Four: 191.5 pounds
Difference: -0.5 pounds
Weight lost since beginning GO! in December: -40.1 pounds
Goal: 175-180 pounds
Points: 520

The weekend camping trip was a blast but I let my good habit, bad habit, and meal points go out the window. This week's going to be another tough one. We leave Sunday for an eight-day roadtrip to Mount Rushmore.

Like my teammate I'm not motivated much to really play hard right now. I'm hoping to pull it together for the next two weeks and then I'm contemplating a break from the game. We'll see...

Vanessa - Week #4 and the Tenacious Twosome Week #4 Score

Starting weight: 145
Ending weight: 146.7
Difference: 1.7+
Goal weight: 145
Weekly Points - 555

TT Week #2 Score -695

I owe my teammate, Jacoy, an apology this week.   I had such an erratic week, my daily points went from 30 to 100.  I knew camping would be hard, how can you not indulge with all the amazing chefs cooking up their delectable dishes twice a day? 

I also didn't get my 20% bonus.  I didn't fit an extra three hours of exercise in this week.  My kids are out of school now so I am having to fit exercise into the schedule differently and I just did not do it. 

I also lost sleep points one day this week, that is not an area I typically have trouble with.

So, no more drinks for me without a 25 point per drink penalty!

I am leaving for 8 days vacation on Sunday, so I don't hold out much hope for a much better week next week.

GO! V

Week Four

FINALLY I MEET MY WEIGHT GOAL!!!

This week I finally made my weight goal this week.

Beginning weight: 149.8
Ending weight: 148.2
Weight loss 1.6

Total points - 835

I think I finally figured out why I wasn't loosing. I hadn't been taking advantage of the day off and meal off. This week I didn't go overboard but I did take a day off and meal off and not stress over what I was eating.

Week Four

What a tough week. This is the first time I have had a gain. My weight is 186 up 1.4 lbs and I had a total of 590 points. That camping killed me. I have got to learn to control my eating. I walked everyday and really enjoy that. The bad thing about this gain it that I can no longer have alcohol without a penalty. I will have a better week.
