Welcome Debra! Thanks for joining the challenge, all you have to do is pm me your weekly results and post here if you like.
I'm doing well, been good with points sice the challenge has started, and I'm eating lovely grapes and figs! I've not been drinking enough water the past couple of days, partly because I've been out most of the time. Oh well, I'll weigh myself on Wednesday, I'm really nervous!!
Debra, glad to have you aboard! Looks like, from your numbers, that succeeding in this challenge will put you very close to goal weight, I'm jealous!
Getting weighed today at my ww meeting and looking forward to their new program!

Just checking in. Okay, the State Fair was an eating trap. I used 14 FPs, but that funnel cake was... Mmmm. Have not had one in years! I know that special occasions come up all the time, but I have been sooo good lately, I decided this one was mine! I have been close to point every other day and OP yesterday. I didn't get in enough water over the weekend, but I'm slurping away as we speak.
No exercise, except surviving the slumber party and walking the fair for 12 hours. Sinus infections and bum ankles make for good excuses! We'll see tomorrow at WI!
Hi everyone, thought I better pop by and see how everyone was doing. I keep checking out the thread but forgetting to post! Here now, better late than never. Welcome Debra. You will do fine on this little challenge by the looks of it. My journal this week looks pretty impressive, been quite good within points, but don't think I've lost any weight. WI tomorrow night, so we'll see. Anyway, better go, I keep getting cut off. Back later.
Started the new ww "core" plan today after attending my weekly meeting. Should be interesting to see if I can accomplish this challenge using it. If I don't see immediate results, will go back to the flexpoint plan. Nice to have a choice.
I'm NOT hungry, but felt I made some great choices today!

Linda- I got your pm, thanks a lot. I'm keeping the results "secret", since you all are posting them here. I'll reveal the total loss of each one of us at the end of the challenge, and also a percentage of what we lost compared to the 10 pound goal. Are you all ok with that?
Great news today, 3.5 pounds off. I've had a big lunch, but that was necessary as I won't be home for many many hours and otherwise I'd get hungry. How was everyone's day?
Last night WI - 1# loss! I'm happy. Due to bad ankle followed by sinus trouble, I have not exercised in over a week. And, had fun with munchies at the State Fair.
As soon as I'm healed, I will have to really step things up to make the 10# mark.
Great job on the losses everyone! We are losers!
I am having "fun" with the new core plan. I don't think it would work out well if one were to eat out all the time, however this week it's ok for me. I am meeting a friend for lunch tomorrow, though. Hope I can figure out something that works!
Linda
HI, just to say I forgot to let you know that I lost 1 pound last night at WI, really pleased with it. I did stay on points, drank plenty of water and exercised very little!
Well done everyone else too. We're on track for the challenge, lets stick with it!
Back soon.
Hi all! How are we all doing?? I'm fine, it's been a good day today, and I've still got some a few points left, so I'm looking forward to some pretzels and a Diet Coke. Take care girls, and thanks to all of you who pm'ed me. I'm still waiting for a few others to post me their results. Bye!
Hi guys! Glad you are all doing so well. Congrats on the loss, Dawny. You are really going strong and soon you'll be telling us you've reached goal! Wow!
Linda
I lost this thread and had to do a search to find it! I lost 2 lbs. last week. Will attempt to do the PM for the official results. I had a good week. My main problem is getting my water in on the weekends! I have my pattern down pat for the weekdays (I carry a bottle with me to work and down it before lunch every day). I get thirsty on the weekends and have to remind myself that I need water not food to satisfy that feeling.
Hey guys!
How are you all doing? How's the challenge?Only 2 weeks left, the first half gone!! Thank you all for the private messages, I haven't heard from aricsmama at all, so I suppose she's not a part of the challenge. Anyway, keep up the good work and take care of yourselves!
Natalie, I blew it yesterday - wonder if blowing it for one day will ruin my chances of coming close? We are going away for part of this upcoming weekend as well.... will have to really put a concentrated effort in!
