Spring Fling: The Final Weigh In

View Comments 04/21/2010 | heather

I can hardly believe it…today is the last day of our lovely Spring Fling Challenge!

Personally, I struggled a lot during this challenge.  Lots of roller coastering (I just made that word up) for this girl. But I’m so glad I had my Team C peeps! Thanks ladies!

How did you do? Did you enjoy being teamed up? Did you have any major epiphanies?

Okay, now for the fun part.  Get on the scale – and come back and tell us about it – write a post on your blog and link up, or just leave a blurb in the comments. Easy, peasy.

Also easy, peasy? Hop around to the blogs of your fellow shrinkers – we all heart some comment love, yo!

One final note – we will have a new challenge starting up next Wednesday, April 28.  It’s going to be a quick, yet kick ass challenge. And that’s all I’m going to tell you – stay tuned for the details! And have a great week!

  1. Oh no it is the last weigh-in?! Boo…I am just getting my feet wet. *sigh* I loved the team aspect, though feel I definitely could and should have been a better team mate.

    OK good…another challenge…let's see if I can get my but in gear for this.

    I out my loss over in our team, but will here too…it is .2…yep good ol' .2 for me.

    Have a great day all!

  2. Kinda sorry the challenge is over – I had the best teammates, and I'm so proud of them all. I'm down another 3 lbs this week (!). Here's my post:

  3. I don't deserve the title Mrs. T. I believe Ms. Sucky Craptastic would be more fitting. I GAINED 3.8 lbs over the course of this challenge.

    I can't believe this challenge is coming to an end! I have LOVED working in teams – what motivation. This has really been a pivotal 8 weeks for me and I am forever changed!

    -8 since March 17. Total since Jan 1 is -20. And that's essentially drinking lots more water & avoiding cookies/sweets (thanks, Lent)!

    I started the challenge at 194.4 and ended at 189.8 for a total loss of 4.6 lbs. I am disappointed in my performance. I did awesome the first half of challenge then gained 3 weeks in a row. This week I am finally down 2 lbs but I should have and could have done better. I am glad there will be a new challenge to push myself! I love SJ challenges! Thanks again hookers for a great time!! xox

    Very excited. Love you, my team!! G4 KICKS ASS!!

  12. Margaret says:

    Here's my realization that this isn't just an 8-week journey (though it sure has been fun & encouraging), but something I need to keep up with for the rest of my life.
    Looking forward to the next challenge!

  13. Tirah says:

    Up one this week. Lost 2.5 total for this challenge

  14. Awesome losses, both in the challenge and since the beginning of the year! It's amazing what a few small changes can do, huh?

  15. But your overall trend is downward, so don't be too hard on yourself – we all struggle, but as long as you keep trying and coming back then you're still succeeding.

    With the loss of my job, my grandmother getting REALLY sick and a few other things… my weight yo-yo'd a lot too this challenge but I'm only ONE POUND away from the 20 pound loss marker. I can't wait to get there… and I can't wait for the next challenge.

    Today's weigh in brought me to 155.8… which is a 2.4 pound loss from last week. Hooray!

  17. Nancy says:

    Oh my gosh, that is fantastic. Maybe we can win this thing. Go Warriors!!!

  18. Nancy says:

    Hooray Brooke!

  19. anng says:

    I am down 3 pounds this week!! BUT up .4 for the challenge….underr the circumstances of my recent life I would say I did pretty good! I am EXTREMELY happy that I lost 3 pounds this week!!

  20. Adrienne says:

    hey everyone.

    I gained a pound and I think I broke even. I'm so disappointed. I'll be ready for the next challenge.

  22. Woot for 3 lbs gone this week!

  23. Bari_F says:

    I am so sad this challenge is coming to an end. My H3 sisters have really become my friends and I could not have survived the past few weeks without their support. I am so proud of all of them. MWAH!

    I managed to lose another .4 pounds this week, for a total of 6 pounds during the challenge. I finished the challenge in a new decade: 149.2. I haven't seen the 140's in a long time!

    I couldn't post yesterday but I did write a blog post. No weight loss but I am now officially a size 8! I've surpassed my goal size and I'm not as concerned about the scale!

  26. Suz says:

    Thanks, Barb. It is amazing that what seems like a very insignificant change can make a HUGE difference (especially in the way my pants fit)!

  27. themelodramatic says:

    I'm late but anyway, my last weigh in was 145.5. A total of about 7 this challenge. Can't wait for the next one. I need 6-7 pounds more! :D
