Congratulations vikkima! Awesome job!

I believe I got myself back under control. I decided WW wasn't working for me and I'm trying something else. So far it's working very well. I weighed myself on Monday morning and was 220. Now I'm down to 217.

I'm starting heavier than the first challenge I joined!! But I'm going to turn this around.

I actually got rid of some XL sweaters I wear in the winter, so if I don't lose this weight, I'm going to have to buy new XL sweaters.

Anyway, you guys are doing GREAT!! Keep it up!

That is something I so look forward to. I know just the pair of pants I want to keep. And then, once I take the picture, I will start a ceremonial bonfire at the beach with them.

I went horseback riding with my daughter yesterday, and bless her heart, she took a picture of me on the horse. Good grief, not something I care to look at, but a good reminder of why I am changing my life.

YEA!!!!!!!!!! 0.8 to go!!!!
Downside: I don't weigh in again until Sunday morning - we're sabbath observers, and can't use a scale on Saturday. So maybe I'll actually win this challenge! And even if I don't - that's still a lot of weight off the scale, I mean, off of me!

And like it's been said before - seems like the weight on the scale doesn't have much to do with reality, seeing as I haven;t done any exercise for 2 days, eating the same as always, and here - a loss!! Go figure...

Sorry for babbling - but I can see those 140's - I see em!

Yay - back to ticker this morning. It said 149.9 first but I hopped off, cursed at it, got back on again and it said 149.7!!

WHOO HOO Robsia, way to GO! I'm gonna try that cursing thing tomorrow!

CONGRATS Miriam, you're so close to winning, wow, this might be a fast challenge!

Welcome Oea!

I'm betting on Miriam for the winner. Any dark horses out there?
Happy Friday losers!

start 140.5
current Phew! 140
goal 135.5

Once again, I got a little crazy with myself and ate way more than planned. So, I started really pushing the water in the hopes of tempering the scale gains. Seems to have worked-- this time.

No change for me this morning either.....I did really well with my calories yesterday and walked 1.5 miles....I'm hoping to do well with the calories again today ...going swimming this afternoon if it doesn't storm and then going walking this afternoon(Again if it isn't raining)!
So maybe I can post that second pound tomorrow???
We'll see!! But I have to keep in mind TOM is on its way any second now so I may not see a change in the downward trend for a good week!!

Looks like everyone is doing very well.....Congrats Miriam....WOW!!!

Well, you and I are deadlocked, my Jewish sister. While I am not observing the Sabbath (I know, I'm bad), I am going camping and won't be able to see a scale until Sunday.
