    It's embarassing that I am easily the heaviest person here. Other than my doctor, I have never shared my weight with anyone, so this is extremely difficult, but here goes:

    Successes/struggles this week: I actually started on October 5th and my weight was up 2lbs. I have never weighed in on Thursdays before so this is good for me. I am grateful for all of your posts because they help motivate me and keep me accountable. I am learning how to be patient with getting weight off over time since it didn't get on overnight!

    Successes/struggles this week: My struggles this week consisted of not being motivated and just absolutely exhausted. So I didn't walk Monday or Tuesday and forced myself to go walking Wednesday night. It wasn't fast or long, but it was something. And now today I am feeling so much better and excited about my walk tonight. So I guess that's a success too!

    Successes/struggles this week: if I lost a tiny bit I definitely don't know why; I ate so much sweet stuff, just couldn't hold back. I am very frustrated about this lack of discipline. Knee still hurts so no sports, I tried swimming but that was no good either. I think it is getting slightly better though now, after having had rest and a bandage, hope it will be fine for next week. There are so many things going on, job-wise (a new and utterly unreliable colleague = double work for me), organizing kids and spending good time with them... my head is not free for my physical shape. I really hope that this will get better with sports, I am sure it will. It is just easier to focus after exercise. Still, a little bit gone and that is positive :-)

    Successes/struggles this week: I'm still trying to get back on track from my end-of-the-month binge in September. Lately I've been feeling very bloated, and I know that's messing with the scale. Today is the beginning of me getting back to drinking enough water, one soda a week, and a few sweet teas (only at a particular restaurant). That's how I had such a good start in August. I don't think I've hit a plateau yet, so I need to buckle down and drop the pounds.

    I was sure I hadn't lost more than 1/2 a pound, if that even, so that number is a happy site for me.

    Cyndi, I am too pushing the 330 mark! Add me as a friend, maybe we can cheer one another on and swap hints and tips.
