GW 182

It'd be nice to get out of the 180s soon, I have so many nice clothes that are about a size to small for me, and I'd love to wear them to teach in. Sadly, school starts a week from tomorrow, so I won't be making the first week, but maybe by the second or third... =D

Ok, I'm back in the saddle. As of this a.m.:

SW: 162.7
GW: 157.7

The 2.2 lbs from yesterday weren't too good to be true! But I didn't loose much today. Ah well, so is life, and I'll still win this challenge. ;)

Yay - well done fauxtini!!

I'm down half a pound overight so I'm starting this one dead on 145, which would take me to 10 stone exactly if I win! I haven't been 10 stone in my adult life! I think I went through it on the way up at about age 12!

GW: 209.6

Today is my anniversary, and I am going out to dinner... so I expect tomorrow's weigh in to be a rough one!

SW: 162.7
CW: 163.8
GW: 157.7

Started TOM today and I just feel bloated. My pants don't fit today and my fingers are all puffy and swollen. Give it a few days. I probably won't weigh tomorrow.

.

SW: 146
CW: 146.8 - up AGAIN!!!
GW: 141

I had a "scale moment" today - got on and I saw 153 - and I thought "Yea! Whoosh!!!!" and then i realized - wait a minute - WTH?153?? And I got on again and it was 146.8/ I'm such a moron.

For the first time since I started dieting again, no weight change. I'd better get used it. :( I hope you guys have a better weigh in!
Mrs.Wolf have a good time this evening! Happy anniversary!
