this is my third bl challenge..... the first one i lost 19 lbs. the 2nd one i lost 11 lbs. so this is a great motivater!!

good luck and lets lose this fat together!!

go blue!!!

hello, sorry for not contributing more to this forum.  I've been busy...

Sorry to hear about your dog wildntaken, that is awful.   Stay strong, enjoy the holidays, keep busy.

I'm soooo scared of the upcoming weeks... I've been stuck at 160 for nearly 2 months (my fault for being an idiot and just eating the wrong things) but now I'm serious about it because I leave for Brazil in 2 weeks and I don't want to be 160 when I go there.  I really wanted to be 150... but let's see what happens between now and then.  The other thing that scares me is what I am going to do while I am there.  I always gain weight... I always eat/drink too much.

I'm hoping that having lost 12 lbs will make me stronger to resist the temptations, but if I know myself I'm just going to have work harder when I get back...

THANKS INACIO! i also have been stuck and driving me crazy!! while you are there, do alot of walking if you can.... that will help....  also you can do what i call school exercise. you know, sit ups, push ups, knee bend, etc.  good luck!!

well yesterday i became a grandma!!  the kids called yesterday evening and told us that our granddaughter was born at 2:30 weighted 8 pounds 6 ounces, 21 inches long, with a full head of hair. her name is SARA NEVAEH. there was a few complication's, so i am praying she will be ok.

well you all have a happy thanksgiving!!

hi team, just checking in. i see no new messages. hope you all is doing good! our grandbaby is doing great! she came home on thanksgiving day.  now we are counting the days till we get to go and see her.  she is beautiful! well i am staying busy, quilting and my candy shop is buzy this time of year. lots of people order their CHRISTMAS candy from me cause they are to busy to make it themselves.

well will check in later. you all have a great day and week.

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hi wild!  Thanks for your reply to my message.  So glad your grandbaby Sara is doing great.  Must have been an extra special Thanksgiving Day for your whole family.  Wish I could come by and get some Christmas candy from you, but maybe it is just as well I can't because I love homemade candy and would probably eat the lot!

Do you ever hear from papa from our old team 3 thread?  I often wonder how his knee is doing.  It is getting quite cold here and we have had to wrap up our tender plants in the garden (tree ferns and lemon trees) brrrrrr!  At least 3 months of this weather now...! Yuk!

Got to go to the first of our Christmas Lunch parties tomorrow, will try to watch what I eat, but it is going to be difficult...

Have a great weekend!

hi letsgetitstarted,  i am already sick of seeing the CHRISTMAS goodies! i have made so much..... but that is good on my half, cause i dont need it either!  yes i chat to papa once in a while..... there is a few of us on a thread that was friends before the last challange started and we all was on different teams and when this challange started we are all on the same team. well papa found us and he checks in on that one. you may join us on that one. it is  http://caloriecount.about.com/need-buddies-an yone-ft103340

here is what he told us

Ok, ladies, where are ya'll at? I am finally up and around after having surgery on Monday. They went in to scope my knee and did not really find anything except for early arthritis. The doc treated that and then closed me back up. I am walking without crutches today so everything is going ok. I will keep ya'll up to date. 

you can go there and read what he says, and join us. he did, i believe say on the old team 3 thread that that is  where he found most of us.... but do come and join us.... 

have a great weekend everyone!!

Hi wild!  Thanks for the link to the buddies thread, I have left a message over there!

Hope everyone in the blue team has a good week!
