I'm so excited this morning! When I started trying to lose weight in July I wanted to drop 50 lbs by Christmas, a nice round number. Then I decided to push it and go for 60 which would put be under 200 lbs, and that'd be a great gift for Christmas. I weighed this morning and I'm down 72 lbs - I'm so ecstatic!! I'm back in the 180's and it's only going to get better from here.

I took the pics last weekend, buthaven't had time to post them yet. I have not met my Christmas goal but am content. I started this journey in June/July and am down just under 50lbs at this point. Looking forward to another 10-20 at least before I get pregnant....our appt with the fertility clinic is in February so it's a tight push for the new year, but this last month has been such a slide, it'll be like I'm starting again.

Congrats on a wonderful loss, and best of luck at the fertility clinic! You'll be in my prayers!

Good evening.

How was everyone's holiday? My holiday was alright. Wednesday I wont be on much, taking my mom to Chicago for heart surgery and then I'm thinking I'll be going to a funeral later this week before the new year

Night everyone. Sorry so short, pretty stressed out right now.

I Want to post my after the 10 week challenge dangit!!! I'm going to try really hard to get them up this week! :bigsmile: I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

I want to post my 10 week pics too, I am shocked at the difference in my face! :bigsmile: But my stupid computer is giving me grief! I may just spend the $3 and do it from my cell! I just hate to do that. I haven't been writing on here much, but I am keeping in touch and trying to keep up. My daughter has been having severe colon issues :ohwell: and then flu for 24 hours and severe head cold for the last 2 wks to top it all off! I have been reading everyone's posts, and am praying for those who need it :flowerforyou: , then figured, Hey, we could all use some, so said one for each of us! Hope everyone's holiday's are happy and SAFE! I love this place, and look forward EVERY DAY to logging in, even if I haven't posted much! :bigsmile:

I am sorry for what you are going thru. I will keep you in our prayers. God hears you, and is with you and your family. :flowerforyou:

OK, I posted my "after the 10 week challenge" photos, on my profile pics. I don't have a clue how to post them on here....tell me what you think...:huh:
I can't tell that much difference :frown:
Hope all of you are having a GREAT week! So stressed about tomorrow's weigh in after eating all of that holiday JUNK! :sick:

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!

KeriA

All of you look great in your progress pictures! :flowerforyou: I wish it was a better time for me to do that since I think it was worth it. However last 10 weeks of the quarter was not a great time for me. I have kept all in my thoughts and prayers during the hard times. I am hoping I can post a loss tomorrow for once on a Friday if I can get my scale to work by then. :grumble: I have been really working hard before and especially after Christmas so it has to come off sometime soon. I have been adding some jogging intervals into my walking and even went with my daughter to a Zumba like class at my club:smokin: . Aquafit and walking are still my main stay exercising though. We also found my old stationary bike in the carport and set it up for cold days we are stuck at home. I am looking forward to the new year. Happy New Year to all of you!:drinker:

I didn't post after pics, BUT I did change my profile pic to one taken on boxing day I'll post it as my after......there wasn't a whole lot of difference (in fact measurements went up as did the scale by about 5 lbs....)

First order of the new year is to get back under 240...I'm willing to take a 5 pound holiday hit...I guess it wasn't too bad. How did everyone else fare??

I just reread what I wrote last night and I didn't mean I was going to be going to my mom's funeral if anyone thought that. What I should have said was, my step brother's gma passed away Monday night and I went to her funeral tonight....Didn't mean to make everyone think my mom was going to pass away...I need to reread things before posting....Again, sorry for the confusion, I was pretty tired the day I wrote that and then everything else going on just didn't help.....besides spell checker, they need like a clarification checker, lol.


Can't wait to see 2011!! I'm welcoming it with arms WIDE open.

Update on my mom-she did NOT have the surgery....got all the way to Chicago, they had her all prepped for surgery, and one of the surgery drs came in and said her UTI had not gone away, but got worse, so the surgery was canceled and after feeling embarrassed and humiliated, she has decided NOT to do the surgery, which I'm sad about. I'm hoping she'll decide later to do it...she did ask the drs though before leaving if it was an emergency that she have it done, and the dr said no. She could let it go, but better get it done sooner then later....and like I said, for now, she's decided not to have it.

chillrose

OK, so I weighed in...on MY scale because I was off work and that's where the scale is that I usually weigh on, so even though my scale said I lost, I don't believe it, so I posted the same weight. :huh:

Next Friday will tell the tale. I'll be back on my work scale! :bigsmile:

My new year's resolution...to get on here more and to CUT OUT THE SUGAR!! :ohwell:

Here's wishing all my MFP friends a happy and BIG WEIGHT LOSS new year!! :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

Did yesterday's challenge yesterday and today's challenge this morning and boy am I feeling it, but feeling AWESOME! :glasses:

While my daughter was on break, I didn't get much of a chance to work out on top of life's other issues, but I'm back and ready to get this pumping.

Can't wait for the rest of the week to go by!

Kminor67

I haven't been doing the challenges this week because I'm sick. I have head congestion, chest congestion, a sore throat, sneezing, coughing and body aches. The only things missing are vomiting and fever . It's all I can do to just go to work! Hopefully I'll feel better by the weekend.

Sorry to hear you aren't well, Kami! Hope you get better soon...no fun being sick

I'm feeling better, but not 100%. Hopefully I'll feel great by this weekend!

Walking on Sunshine today....

I restarted all my tickers on January 1. I found I was relying on my past success too much so fresh start definitely got me jump started again. I have gained back about 7 lbs over the holidays. As of this morning, I'm 5.7lbs down from last Saturday 2010 saw me lose 49.2lbs.

Sorry I haven't been around more this week. I'm doing a sugar detox and it's making me so tired (well that coupled with going back to regular hours....4am wake up calls suck!!!)

Gotta run. We need to pick up gas before heading in to work plus the roads are bad up here today. Visiting with one of my best girlies today. She had her little boy on Christmas day (she's the first in the group to have kids) and has just been too tired until now for me....it's really the only reason I'm not working from home today :smooched:

CGerman

Down to 185 this morning - only 5 lbs to go until I'm "overweight"! 2011 should be a good year, I'm staying on track and should be able to hit my goal weight this year. Only 45 lbs to go, sounds like a lot but with what I've already done it feels doable.

Good luck with your weigh in everyone!

bluerose9483

Woo hoo, lost 2 lbs of that 4 that I gained over the holidays!!! 1/2 way back to my before holiday weight.....
