I would LOVE to go swimming. Too awful though to be out in public in a bathing suit, ugh. All I have is my maternity one which is, let's say, rather less than flattering.

I'm annoyed at my lack of weight loss. I wanna see 140's.

Congrats to all you losers, and to you gainers - well..... There's safety in numbers, LOL

*covers her eyes*

This isn't a vegan-safe story.

But I'm glad your toe isn't too injured!

FINALLY I see a weight loss!!!

172.5
170.5
167.5

The 6's are going to be here very soon!

Yayyyyy Jessacaca

You go girl!!

Here's one for you, Josephine:

A few years ago we heard something scratching in the walls and we assumed it was a mouse. My husband was leaving town the next day for a business trip, so at about midnight the night before his trip, we sawed a hole in the wall, scooped it into a glass and put it outside. In fact, we've had a few mice we've had to save, so now the glass is called the mouse glass! It's also used for spiders

Anyway, I'm down .5 lbs. Hopefully I'll get some whoosh action after TOM!

Hi Ladies,

I 've been MIA since the 4th. It was a hard weekend since DH was at home continuously tempting me. I am down 1lb, but I haven't recorded it for the fear of gaining back. I am going to wait until it's more than one. It has been hard the last two days. I've been really hungry.

That's such a cute story, Darby! I always feel bad squishing spiders, so I usually try to get them to climb on my hand so I can put them outside. For those less fond of spiders, you can scoop them up on an index card and then put a cup on top of it so the spider can't get out, and then put it outside.

ANYWAY, I've gotta do some exercising today, I've been totally slacking recently.

Finally a post TOM loss first day post, so we'll see how this week goes!

Awwwwwwww, my heroes! I love that you have a mouse glass! We had to rescue squirrels who were making a nest in our ceiling, then we went around and sealed up all entries in the house really well, so it hasn't happened again. We have a massive oak tree in our yard, and the squirrels now have a huge nest that we can watch -- it is so cute when the babies start coming out!

Kitty - woo hoo adios 140s. See you again NEVER!

Miriam - I understand the self-esteem issues with wearing a bathing suit but I say screw it. I'm waaayy heavier then you and plan on going out in public this weekend in one. It's all about confidence. If you're eating right and exercising well then it's just that your body hasn't caught up and you shouldn't hide it. Okay so this was partially talking myself up too :-)

Darby - Aw I like you even more for that story! I catch bugs and put them outside myself. Well when the dogs don't see them first ;-)

Congrats Melissa, Mercer, Jessica, Skinnybeach (he he love the name), Josephine, Darby and anyone else on your losses!

I'm at 212.4 this am. 3lb down 2lb to go. I'm starting to get antsy to get out of the 200s!

Yayyyyy!!!! I hit my goal today! I'm so excited! This challenge seems to have lasted forever!!! LOL!

It seems everyone is picking up with their weightloss now...

Miriam - I'm with you! I love swimming but I wouldn't go out in public the way I look now. My sister has a swimming pool. So, I go over there alot. I wear a t-shirt over my swim suit. It is great exercise.
