  • Well, I am still at 159...that's after my birthday weekend (yes, it stretched to an all weekend event).
    SW - 159
    CW - 159
    End of month: we'll see. Really going to hit it hard after tomorrow night. I know I will have a few New Year's Eve drinks and snacks.
  • Today I weighed in at EXACTLY 280!! YAYY!

    CW: 280
    GW: 280!!!
  • Yay! A new low for the month! I'm down to 172.5 today! And I have passed how many total lbs I lost 4 years ago!

    The Whoosh Fairy has been kind enough to allow me to lose a lb a day since Christmas, but if I lose another lb today (and that's asking a lot even for the Whoosh Fairy), I'll still be missing goal by a half lb, but what a good run I've had! I'm not giving up though. I have TOM trying to do...something...lol, so maybe that will play into it in a good way. In any event, I'm really happy with the way December has turned out! Thank you all so much for all the support you've shown me! You play a huge role in how successful I am at this, and I am so grateful!

  • Great job Darius, we must be about 12 hours apart, I still have 11 hrs to my last weigh in of 2013. I like your optimism! I think 2014 is going to be great, too!

    Hi kelijpa if you're in PA which is eastern standard time then we are 14 hours apart. In summer we are 13 hours apart due to daylight savings time in the US (we don't have DST).
