    Well, I'm within 1 pound of my ticker weight. I did not want to change it, because I don't want to get cheered for losing the same weight that I'd already lost a while back. I am excited that I am getting back on track & inwardly that is what I celebrate. I will be very happy once I am back to 11 pounds lost -- just 1 more pound. I am very motivated this go round.

    Sorry haven't been able to keep up with y'all for a few days. I will say that I am back to my ticker weight! 142 lbs.

    GW at the end of the Fall 2013 check in Dec. 21st? 133 lbs

    I doubt that I will be able to meet this goal... but that's what I started this Fall Check in with.
    In all honesty, at this point... I will be happy if I just drop down one more pound & am able to maintain it.

    I've been eating leftover pizza for a snack in the afternoon and ice cream (and a couple of cookies too) before bed... This madness has to stop. And I wonder why the scale is going up. Not a good week. My husband has been bringing all kinds of junk in the house. He keeps it in a separate cabinet but really? I've asked him not to buy so much junk but somehow it is making its way to the cabinet. I know... I know... I need to stay away from it!!!
