Yay! It’s my favourite day of the week: NSV Friday! I’m so excited about my NSV this week. I can now wear size 8 jeans! I was so excited at the mall that I tried on a couple of different styles to make sure I was really a size 8 in all of them and they fit! I haven’t been in the single digits since I was a little kid.  Top-wise, I’m now a size 10, which I’m also super happy with since I was a 12 before Christmas. Yay, I love going down in sizes!

Yay for the NSVs! That's cute Susie!
Can't wait to hear about your shopping trip Jiggle. I have been daydreaming of buying a new wardrobe for summer I have my sights set on a monokini this year 
sparkle- 
I went down an inch on my hips and some pants I have were looser but you all really have some huge NSVs the week!

toobig hey- not losing a whole lb a month is totally okay!! 1. you're 185 lbs. and 5'8. I can tell you that you're gorgeous and skinny as is (As i was there not so long ago). The thing is- would you rather lose a lb a month - consequently have your clothes fit well for a longer time, not have to replace them so often? and have a sustainable weight loss? i mean, if you're already pretty much at maintenance- there shouldn't be a huge change:P
OR would you rather lose 10 lbs a month, spend more money on clothes, have tonnes of rude comments about "You being so skinny", and then up to maintenance and gain back weight?
Slow and steady wins the race!!

Well today was weigh-in for me. No loss to speak of but I knew I might not have one b/c I was only in weight-loss range on my cals 4 days of the week. I ran out of my normal breakfast foods and it seemed to really mess me up on sticking to my plan. I've gotta make sure to get stocked up with high protein breakfast foods.
I think for the rest of the challenge I am going to step it up and cut my cals to absolutely no more than 1600 with a goal range of 1500. Hopefully, I'll get to work out but I am under the weather again.  I don't know if it's allergies, a sinus infection, or another cold I caught but it sucks. Anywho, I am gonna rock out the next 1.5 weeks of our challenge with good calorie counts and trying to get some exercise when I feel up to it. I think that should give me the budge I need to get into Onederland. If not, this challenge has been good to me. I've lost 8-9 pounds, making this the most effective challenge I've done. 
Thanks Everyone! Let's keep rockin this thing!

When I joined this challenge, I wanted to get into the 120s. Then I decided I just wanted to maintain -- life was getting a little stressful.
This morning I saw 130 on the scale! I haven't seen that since 1991. Maybe I will meet my original goal after all!

WOW, Lori! I'm new to the board, so I don't know you, but thanks for coming back -- your story is so inspiring! You look like an entirely different person. Keep the good health you've achieved -- never go back!

Good Morning. I thought I would have some happy news about my labels but no such happening. I was planning to go to the mall but we stopped to look at a car Saturday and ended up purchasing it. Well that took ALL DAY!!! Afterwards all I could do was go home feed me and my daughter a bowl of cereal and go to bed. It was the multigrain cheerios. Sunday we went to church, home to clean the house and my nap. I woke up in time for the Super Bowl game and still haven't tried on any new labels. Maybe this weekend. It is good that I got another vehicle because we really needed it and it was exactly what we wanted.
I will be behaving all week so I can be sure that I will be in some more labels by next Saturday and whatever I can fit that day will be my Valentines Day results.
