  • Hey there everyone - 198.5 again this morning, A few colleagues and I went out last night and celebrated our last day with students so after a few beers I am definitely happy with no gain!

    Josephine - Congrats on your pool membership! I love to swim it always makes me feel graceful and sleek regardless of what weight I am at. I am going to try a run today, by knee doesn't hurt as much as it did earlier. Keep fingers crossed for me...

    theresia - good luck on your test on monday, I'm sure you'll make it!
  • Morning gang! I'm saying goodbye FOREVER to the 180s today, so long, never want to meet you again, and don't come back ya hear?!

    Start Weight: 182
    Current: 179.2 (-2.8, 2.2 to go!)
    Goal Weight: 177
  • Toni -- Congrats on your last day! I wish I felt sleek in the pool -- well actually I do feel good in the the pool just not so good disrobing to get into the pool. This pool is used heavily by really in shape triathletes and master swimmers with not an ounce of flab on them. I am consistently the heaviest person there (*sigh*). Makes me nuts.

    What's particularly painful is that I've gone through this weight loss process before and lost a ton of weight and got in shape and they all saw me do it (I was preparing for a triathlon) and now they see I've put it back on. It's so awkward.
  • AWW JO! congrats thats fantastic. bye bye 180s!!

    been shopping all day today for holidays... really enjoyed it, fiance is great to shop with! walked about 3 miles today... great and i got a gorgeous prom dress for the wedding im going to tonight.. its gonna be on the BBC!

  • I did not weigh today as I knew it the number would be higher (much) than the day before. But now I've gone and eaten all my cals for the day (plus 150). aND IT'S 4 PM AND my official weigh day is tomorrow. I'm annoyed with myself.
  • Congrats on being under 180!!, must feel good,,

    I haven't weigh in the last two days,, I am not feeling so well, I've got some fever and my throat hurts,, so I've been eating some icecream those days... It makes me feel a little better, So no exercise and a lot of unhealthy food = no weigh in ,,
  • Hi ladies!

    Sorry I have been MIA ....We about lost our house Monday afternoon. If any of you have heard of the fires in Florida ...well Monday they were in my neighborhood and back yard Thankfully I have some AWESOME neighbors that saved my house along with my wonderful husband that came home to play firefighter I let all this take me over and had the I should just be thankful to have a house since a few of our neighbors were not as lucky mind set. I even told the lady at walmart that check me out and seen all the junk I was buying..I was just going to enjoy life and what I have for now. As I walked away she yells just a couple days then get back on plan....Okay I'm done pigging out at all the bar b q's our neighborhood have been having to thank everyone. I can enjoy my neighbors without gaining weight right?
    I will weigh in first thing in the morning...already stuffed myself with my last can of chips. Tomorrow will not be pretty though Looking forward to getting started again. I need you ladies

  • This is my "official weekly weigh in" for my blog and my scales were nice to me, I'm down to 178.8, yippee! So exciting to start creeping towards the mid-170s!

    Start Weight: 182
    Current: 178.8 (-3.2, 1.8 to go!)
    Goal Weight: 177
  • Hey Florida losers--
    I heard that these fires were set by an arsonist-- scary stuff. I'm so glad you and yours were not damaged/harmed.

    I am up 2 pounds today. &^^%&%!
    start 147, today 147.5.

    Just further confirmation that the body (female or maybe just mine) does not let go of pounds without a real hard battle to keep 'em. Urg. That's ok, it's my reality but it doesn't mean I will fail.

    Have a peaceful monday, losers.
