Feb 3rd Weigh In POST will close Feb 5th @ 11:59pm!

All member's who have joined and haven't posted at least two one weigh in will be removed from an active team and place on an inactive team. We have about 2-3 members on each team that haven't posted their weigh in's since we have started. Once those team members who are non participants are place in inactive status we will continue as usually with the challenge but there will be less memebers on each team and I will try to make sure each team has the same amount of members!

Hey all...... here's my weigh-in for Dec. 30:

Starting weight:  178

Starting weight this week:  173

Ending weight this week:  175.4

Total lbs Lost:  GAINED 2.4 lbs

Goal for next weigh in:  LOSE the 2.4 I gained!!

I'm giving myself some slack.... the holidays, craziness at work and family visits all drove up the caloric intake, mainly in the form of desserts and alcohol.  Should be able to cut those out no problem and get back on the weight loss track!

Good luck to everyone and Happy New Year!

Wow, congrats imsvicky!!!!!  You are doing an amazing job and serve as inspiration to us all!  Happy New Year!

Happy New Year All! I am a little disappointed in myself as today's weigh in will not show that I made my mini goal. I have a problem with the plateau and not being able to get passed the carbs. I'm sorry to my team and hopefully the new year will work out better.

Starting Weight: 168

Starting Weight this week: 167

Ending Weight this week: 164

Total lost:  4 lbs.

Total lost this week: 3 lbs.

Goal for next week: 2 lbs.

Does anybody have any suggesstions as to what to snack on other than bear claws, chips and onion dip and home baked breads? I mean stuff I won't get burnt out on? Thanks!

See you guys next week. Happy New Year!

Not bad considering the food and wine over the holidays. I had revised my mini goal to 205 by the 30th but my original mini goal was 208 so I changed it back!

Looking forward to losing another 10lbs by my next mini goal date!

Happy New Year everyone! Here's to a healthier and happier 2008!

Happy New Year everybody!!!!

I'm sorry haven't posted here in over a month, have had alot of personal problems and have dealt with some of it by eating lots of Junk (Christmas meaning there was plenty of food around) and doing no exercise, with the net result is I have gained 12lbs!!!!! I am not happy with this but its my own fault for comfort eating. I am slowing trying to get myself back on a healthy diet and exercise plan.
