OK, had WI on Saturday, so my starting weight is 214 and I want to lose 15 pounds... GUESS WHAT, that means my goal is 199. YAH, I can't wait. When I got PG, my weight was 197... so that is soooo close. Sure is taking me a long time to get it off!
I am weighing in every other week, so I won't be posting losses every week. But I will post my journals. I am realyl getting off track and need to stay focused!!

Good news and not so good news.
The good news is, I am so motivated and had a great weekend.
The bad news is, I gained over my holidays, so I am at 209 again. BOOOOOOO!!!!!
But this is the Day One for me (although I was OP all weekend, and I journaled, wow!)
Jen - sorry to hear all that is going on, hang in there honey!!! congrats on your loss!!
Gotta go, I'll try to post on the daily....
Welcome lurkers.

hoping for a maintain this week!
We'll see tomorrow night, but anything like a minor gain will be great! I won't post what I ate last week since nothing but maybe the water I drank was even low in points! 
Speaking of points...it's time to eat lunch!

Great Idea Jen!
Well I shared this in the daily thread but my
#1 goal is to go to WI and stop trying to do it myself.
#2 14 pds. that is appx 1.75 pds/wk would be the ultimate however I would be happy with 10 pds.
So there they are. Oh where do you guys post Journals. I think that would keep me a bit more in control. Maybe 
BTW this is day one for me!!

I ran a 5K on Sunday! It was kind of a spur of the moment thing, but I've been training for a 3.5 mile race I am running in 3 weeks so I figured it would be good practice! I did really well - 31 minutes, which is exactly 10 minutes per mile!
I also lost 2 pounds last week so I am now totally into this Labor Day challenge!!

K - good job on your lb down!!
Tonya - don't be discouraged, one lbs is good!! I think that's great.
Jen2 - woo hoo on your run! I was running but I got really bad about it the past few weeks, I'll have to start from scratch I think....I was up to 20 min nonstop....oh well!!

I am ready to accept this challenge!! I started on July 7th, at 192 pounds. I am now 182.5! Okay, Labor day is about 6 weeks away, right? Let's say 2 lbs. a week will bring me to 170!!!!! That is an attainable goal and I am ready to do it!!!!!
P.S. Does everyone know that 6 slices of Healthy Choice turkey breast is only 1 POINT??????????
