That is a great article - the pictures did more to tell me to not always rely on the scale than all those people who have just told me that! Thanks for sharing!

Today is day 3 - doing great so far. My co-worker and I are walking down 3 flights of stairs and then back up twice each day. I also walk up two flights of stairs at the beginning of the day - I started today actually - with all my gear. We're on the 7th floor, so technically we're working up to doing 8 flights. I think it's going to take me a long time, but I have to start somewhere.

Ready for Friday for sure!

How is everyone else doing?

thanks for sharing that....what a great visual reminder that it is notttttttttttttttttt always about the weight we are....
i can not count the number of people who are SHOCKED at my start weight of 253.8 and my highest weight of 263....they argue with me that no way did i weigh that much.....size is relative to how you carry the weight....

keep trudging on friends.....we will get there soon enough....

I am just reposting last weeks weight because I have been sick all week. I know I am under 200 right now but I think I am still dehydrated.

Well I stayed the same this week, I was really hoping for a pound this week since I'm 1 pound away from my first 10 poounds gone. I guess it will be my goal for next week to be down one pound. Thanks for all the congrats, I usually don't get on here to much so I just read them today. Hope everyone has a good week.
