Hi gang! I hope all of you are doing well. I see a few of you have joined Cece and Wanda in the *5 pound Challenge * Let us know how you guys are doing! Go go go We are cheering you on I had such a HARD week (eating) - I blogged about it if you want the details. I am felling better now -Thank God! I am PUMPING it up at the gym - and pushing myself - it feels great (On Sunday I had a great workout and burned ~767~ calories). I got a new shorter Lil' Hair cut too - A picture is on my profile - I always wanted a short - sassy lil' hair cut - I think it look cute - lots of people have been commenting (that they love it). Here we go here are my stats ... Starting weight 250.5 Last week = 140 This week = 140 Loss this week = 0 (counting my blessings - no gain) Total loss = 110.5 Current BMI = 22.6 How did you do? Quote - One should eat to live, not live to eat! Be Determined! You can do this - keep your eye on the prize! Sending you all Holiday Hugs, Britt

Hi Britt I love you new doo, you look so good. I really thought I had a good week but did end up gaining a little. I have a conference on Wednesday that I will be at from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM so I think that whole day will be a struggle it's all about having snacks out all day long. I don't do well with temptation I am bringing my tea and my crystal light and propel packets so I can drink all day and I won't feel so much like snacking I hope. I have to miss my swimming that day also which really bothers me. I'll have to pick up that day on the weekend and get some exercise in. Starting weight 298.5 Last week = 162.0 This week = 162.4 Gain this week = 0.4 Total loss = 136.1 Current BMI = 29.7 I am doing Wanda's challenge and hope to show some loss next week. Everyone have a fabulous week. Deb

hugs Deb thanks for peeking at my new doo and your email stay focused WE CAN DO IT GIRL! you have come a long way baby! Hugs, Britt

Deb, Good luck at the conference! Try taking some of your own snacks and don't even look at their goodie table! CeCe

Hi everyone, I am so glad to be back and posting on our board. I have missed you all. My eating has been horrific but as of Sunday, I am back on track. My personal little goal is trying my best to reach 199 by New Years Day. I know it is doable if I put in the effort! Plain and simple truth. My Stats: Starting weight = 348 and BMI 60 Weight on Day of Surgery = 332.5 Last weigh in = 220.0 This week = 217.6 Loss this week = 2.4 lbs Total loss = 130.4 lbs Since surgery 114.9 lbs Yeah! Just goes to show that my body wants to lose, I just have to give it the correct fuel. 2.4 lbs in 1 day! Not too shabby. Hope everyone has a GREAT week! My motto for the week is NO EXCUSES!!!!!! Hugs, Valorie
