You know I kind of fail at challenges. I should have have put up my starting weight and goal weight, when I joined. Sorry guys! I'll get the swing of things eventually.

If I make it...I will buy myself a nice new green top to wear! Or maybe a cute pin for the front of my shirt.

I am new as of today, but count me in!

count me in!

The scale has been waffling for what seems like AGES, but I finally started losing again after I started a weight training program yesterday, despite TOM, too! :carrot:

FINALLY dropped a little this morning after being stalled out for a couple of weeks. I'm hoping that I keep up this downward trend.

Hi everyone!

So, TOM threw one of those mega-wrenches and really slowed things down for me this week. But I'm sure that as the week continues I will see the scale move accordingly :-)

mdchick, wow - I love hearing that you will be down 60 lbs. It is so inspiring and such a help to stay on track!

For St. Paddy's Day I actually have a really cute blue dress from express that doesnt quite button correctly in certain places... You know... I really want to wear that dress with some green accessories and green nailpolish and eye makeup.

Spooky, Diamond40, hilariousness - so nice to have you!

Cosmicgal, remember that you can do this. Just don't stop trying. I'm sure you wont fail at this challenge. Just keep checking in and you will make progress!

Our Lady Bonbon, I am so happy you are starting to see that progress! I have been dealing with Pre-TOM for about 4 weeks now, so I know exactly how it feels to have no control over the scale, no matter how "good" I am. It keeps me on track knowing that you pushed through!

lluvyblu...um - you're rocking this!

audri8301 - its great to hear that you had a promising loss this week! Hopefully I will remember that when I hit a plateau.

Ok - I'll be back on tomorrow. I love that you guys are keeping this challenge so active!

Have a healthy, fun weekend!

Okay. LOL I lost the pound I gained yesterday. So maybe it was just water weight or whatever. HNot so Hulk Smash any more. How are you ladies doing with everything?

Okay my first week to weigh in and of course it is TTOM, but I will take any loss I can get...:dizzy:

musicangel - Thanks! I guess we just have to keep pushing through, even when things don't seem to want to change and know that they will eventually. :-)

I just have one thing to say....I hate TOM :(

On pace to make goal, so that's good :) Everyone's doing well... keep up the good work!!!

Musicangel-- Thank you! I'm sorry to hear that TOM has messed with you, too. It's so frustrating when you try your hardest and still have trouble seeing results. I'm confident that you'll succeed, though, and you'll look fabulous in your little blue dress. Actually, you kind of inspired me yesterday when I went shopping with my friend.
Funny story, kinda... So, my best friend and I were hitting the clearance racks at Belk when she had the idea that we each pick out a dress for the other one-- only it had to be the most hideous one we could find. I found her a ruffled monstrosity with purple plaid, and she found me a frumpy little black number with civil-war-style buttons on the bodice. I thought it was hideous until I tried it on ;) I loved it. Yes, it's 2 sizes smaller than the dresses I own, and yes, it makes me look like a stuffed sausage ATM, but 10 lbs from now, I think I'll look pretty good in it. Since it was clearance, I bought it for 8 dollars and hung it up on my closet door. She loved her purple one and got it, too. I, too, have a "goal dress," to wear on St. Patty's Day! Thanks to you, I have an extra source of motivation.
As for the rest of you ladies, keep on trucking!! You're all an inspiration to me :D
