I am doing very well! I have been working out twice a day all week and I plan on doing it again today! I love that my hourglass figure is coming back!! Boy that has been gone for a loooooong time. :D Even last night after I ate a meal of brown rice and veggies and felt like I was going to burst, I held up my gown and my figure was still there. That has not happened since before I had my second child more than 7 years ago! It has also made me realize that I was doing so bad before. I was heavy for so many years and I spent so much money eating all kinds of the wrong things. Fried this, smothered that and I blew through so much money and I let myself go so bad and when I was thinking about it I was near tears. Even if I hadn't found this forum, I know I can never ever go back to that life every again. Those years were the most miserable of my entire life and I thank God that I woke up and got my s*** together and started getting healthy and doing the right things for my health and well being.

I lost---woohooo

If it is not too late...I would like to join in. By March 31st, I would like to be down to 250, which is 35lbs.

Nope it isn't too late to join!

That is great that there are so many people doing so well! I need to follow your lead! I am having major pms and have felt tired and sluggish this week and have slacked off a bit. I am going to stay on track today though! I am going to take my girls on a walk in a bit and that is always a good work out. Pushing a double stroller with a 2 and 4 year old is hard! I also want to do my exercise video tonight. I am still hoping for a loss this week but at this point I just hope I haven't gained!

I didn't see this thread. I want to join!

Six days on plan eating-wise but I can't seem to get myself motivated to exercise. Grr.

^yeah I find some days it is easy for me to stay on plan with eating and some days exercise but most days I struggle with one or the other.

Well I ended up taking an hour long walk today plus did a ton of deep cleaning and I am still going to try and do at least some of my work out video so today has been pretty good for exercise!

I'm still too sick to exercise, but I'm staying very hydrated so hopefully all this week I'm losing this week is legitimate. Its definitely not because I'm dehydrated!!

I am SO happy right now. It feels like I have been hovering over the 160's for the longest. Tonight I FINALLY weighed in under 170!!!!!! I hope this is a good sign!

I also got in 4.3 miles running today while DD was at preschool!

week #2 - Goal - 30lbs

weigh in dates:
jan 3: 243.6
jan 10: 239.6 - down 4lbs!!

Good luck this week everyone!

I would like to join
 

If it is not too late - I would like to join too. I could weigh-in tomorrow morning. I would like to lose 25-30 pounds by the final weigh-in.

:carrot: WTG Beth on the 4 lb loss!!!!!!!!!!

I weigh in tomorrow and aunt flo will be raging! If I gain it's because I always weigh in at least 5 pounds heavier when she is here. I HATE THAT because now I am on track. I know it's a part of nature but still! So let's see how I do tomorrow. How is everyone?

Dang, I don't know how I missed this. Oh well I'll get in next time! :)

EDIT: Oh maybe it's not too late - I have my weight from January 4th written down in my planner. I'll have to read the thread to see what the "rules" are.

EDIT #2 - Ok official start post coming soon - but what I want to know is if we're going to crown The Biggest Loser by whoever loses the most total pounds or by some other method because I definitely think whoever loses the most ought to get something to put in their signature! :) I don't think I have any hope of beating CFMama but if I do I want bragging rights!! :P

Goal - to lose as much as possible. I hope to hit 265. Dang did I just say 265?? That'd be sweet!
