Weebles, I use the Goodwill all the time. Thrift stores are a lifesaver when going down in weight.
I've been sulking. I can't walk (back still not cooperating) and the weather is just plain nasty and I ate and ate and ate. Arrrrgggg. I'm still with the plan though just made a detour. I hate winter in March. We're in the middle of a nasty, cold and icy snowstorm. Yuck!
Hey everyone! I'm so happy the work week if over for me! It was rough. We have two people on vacation, so it was NUTS all week!
I think I will be using my first freebie for weigh in this week. I have been POP except for Wednesday (and even though it was off plan, Wednesday was at or near being a break even calories-in=calories-out day), but I must be retaining water or something as the scale is not giving me numbers that I want to see!
Hehe, ok ok, WE are so awesome. I'm getting there, luckily, telling by your losses it doesn't look like you've fallen off the wagon.

Don't feel bad for using a freebie! Next week I bet your number will rock once you "whooooosh!"
Because I started out this week a few pounds higher than my last weigh in that I used my freebie for, my weight won't show as much of a loss at all. As of today it's 0.2 lower than two weeks ago. But I started out monday at 202.0 lbs and as of today I'm 199.6 lbs.
BUT..I started the 30 Day Shred on Monday and my hubby did my measurements for me on monday and then again yesterday after 4 days of doing the 30DS and I've lost 2 inches off my upper arms, 1 inch off my tummy, and 1/2 inch off my thighs and hips. So I'm keeping up with this workout and going to throw 3 days of 20 or 30 minute cardio into there and I know it's going to work for me!
well, I weigh the same as I did on Sunday, I guess I was really dehydrated last week. Going to go let the doggies pull me through the cemetery, it's nice out today (finally)...
I am dropping out of the competition. I don't have the time to come here and support everyone anymore. Hopefully there will be a summer challenge again this year. Good luck to all who are still in it. You are all doing great!!!

Hi there blue ladies!!!
Sounds like we've got some big losers here! I didn't gain, actually lost .2lbs, even with cake and ice cream twice this week!!! I worked in the yard some too though, but the knee is back out of whack (I sympathize with you retired one, I also have a back issue, groan - but the knee is taking the lead for now). Nonetheless, I'm trying to eat better and am willing myself to that elliptical . . . someday.
Sorry to lose Mary -
enjoying the group that is left - thanks for being who you are . . .
I have a love hate for todays number. Last week I took a freebie because I went on a weight loss hiatus and actually gained over 2 pounds. So last week I weighed in at 202.0 lbs but used my freebie. I managed to lose those 2.2 lbs plus 0.2 lb but unfortunately I'll only be able to add 0.2 lbs to the team. I'm happy that it's going down though....and no more binge parties for me!!
On a happier note though, I'm THRILLED with my measurements. We did them earlier in the challenge as well so I think whoever wants to update them should!
Hi everyone,
Sorry I haven't been around much this week kind of a crazy one and I have not been myself this week. I weighed in on Friday and put that as my weight for the challange. Had my scrapbook convention with lots of goodie and put on 2.8lbs so we are going with Fridays weigh in and hope for the best by next weekend.
Congratulations to everyone with losses, you ladies are doing great. I hope the next challange actually sees some pounds coming off of me
Maryshady - sorry to see you go, I hope all is well with you.
