I'm in. I've been stuck in the 220's since July. Twenty five pounds in 15 weeks. That's less than 2 pounds a week. I so want to ring in the new year from onederland.

I'm 13/13 so far for the month with exercising, and hoping it leads to another good WI for the week.

Capricorn86 & Thinsole. I know we are all going to make it to Onederland. I look forward to hearing about your successes.

Mizzthing - I'm so sorry to hear about your being affected by flooding. I'm sure that's no fun. I'm glad the scale is down for you though.

Kim - Great job on the new low!! You are doing an awesome job and thanks for motivating me to do my best.

I'm still holding at 213. I'm hoping to see 212 soon.

Have a great day everyone.

Red face Hello I'm new. Joined today :)

Feeling very nervous & need to learn the ropes. I am in need of a great challenge, just like this one. Really need support 'cos I know I can't do this alone. Made firm decision last week to do something about this weight. Started a low calorie diet last Monday but only weighed myself, a couple of days ago.

How often do you suggest I do a weigh in?

I've been M.I.A. a bit this week. Work has been quite busy but I peeked at the scale this morning and it said 228. Hope it stays that way or a bit lower come Sunday!

Hope you all are having a great week! I'll try to read and get caught up on posts in a bit!

Good morning everyone,

Gissy. I am cheering us all on to onederland. I am so tired of seeing a 2 in front of my weight.

Thinsole - great job on your 4 pound drop!

geaux - congrats on your loss!

Matilda - Great job on haning on. You're right we CAN do it!! No we ARE going to do it! Onederland here we come.

I've been stuck at 213 for about a week now and I'm hoping that I'll see a drop soon. I upped my exercise last week and am hoping it will pay off soon.

Have a great day everyone!

Ooh it's Friday night here, in Aus, & as usual, I'm struggling with cravings of Takeaways & Alcohol - our usual Friday night ritual 'pre' diet!!
It's 8:20pm & I've just managed to stave off the craving by having a lovely cup of Ovaltine Light ..... making todays total calories now equal to 1254

Phew - that was as close shave I was so close to grabbing the car keys!!!!

GOTTA MAKE IT TO THE 100'S

Hang in there Gissy - You can do it!!! Just picture yourself in onederland. I'm also going to fight to stay 100% OP over the weekend. I am so ready to get out of the 2teens now.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Hi Gissy. I know what you mean about Friday night cravings. I'm so used to pizza friday's that I've been fighting the urge to order one all day. Great way to stave off the cravings btw. I compromised and made a mostly vegetable, whole wheat spaghetti.

Good luck everybody. We can make it.

Congrats TooMany. That'g gotta be a wonderful feeling. I'm kinda bummed. I usually weigh in on Thursdays but I just joined Sarge's platoon and they weigh in sundays. I weighed in again and apparently gained 1.8 pounds.

Ah well...next time I'm out with friends better food choices are my goal.
