So.... how did everyone do today on this day of Turkey? I loved every minute of it. I only had one trip through the "buffet" that we had set up, but what a great trip it was. Turkey & gravy, cranberry sauce (the canned kind that's full of sugar), green bean casserole, stuffing, corn casserole, a home made hot roll with honey butter and sweet potatoes - oh, and I did have a salad too . I had coffee, 1 hello dolly square and a piece of pecan pie for dessert. Although, the pecan pie was so RICH I only had 3 bites of it. All in all, I don't think I did so terribly bad. We shall see how things go with the scale next week!
WooHoo! Stayed POP through Thanksgiving and the scale was kind. I met my BL goal this week
On a less exciting note, I got a new scale that weighs 5 lbs. heavier. UGH! I changed my profile and ticker but I will leave my BL stats based on the old scale. Oh, well - it's only a number - right? 45 lbs. lost is still 45 lbs. Just means that I have 30 more to go!
Here's to another great week for the Black Team! Let's finish strong!

I'm back! Visiting my family is great, but OMG the drama and the food. Sheesh!
It looks like several of us had a very good "specific goal" weeks. WTG to us! I managed to stay under the obese line this week, even with the holiday and traveling. I'm sure the 5K helped burn some of those calories.
My suitcases won't unpack themselves, so I'd better go start on laundry.
Good moring Black team! Just a quick reminder for y'all to get your weight's posted by deadline tonight. We have exactly 2 weeks left.
I hope you don't mind my butting in but I so wish it didn't have to end, but over in the Lowcarb lifestyle forum, they are starting a month long (I believe) challenge. I am gonna do it with them too. I figure it'll be continued motivation to get me through til January when we do it here again. Here's the weekly chat thread if anyone is interested.
***WEIGH-IN DAY***
Please have your weigh in posts updated by 11PM (central time) tonight!!!
And remember.... we all know that we've just come off of a big time eating holiday. If you have to post a gain (I imagine that I will be posting a gain next week because of it) - then post a gain. Don't take a freebie!! 2 weeks left! wow.....

Yay! I didn't have to post a gain this week--I'm 1.5 lbs down!
But...
TOM is due on Wednesday, and the last 2 months I've had to post a gain due to water weight....I'm hoping I will be less bloated this month, because I really don't want a gain next week. LOL.

I'm exited to begin a new challenge, but I will miss our black team. You guys are wonderful teammates and we have had so much fun! I am excited to see every lb. lost. The challenges have been fun too. Speaking of which, gotta go check today's bingo activity
