    Okay my friends ... I found a couple of pictures of this jouney ... one when I was 230 lbs ... one when I went down to 180 lbs ... and one from today ... at 198 lbs. YO YO YO ... hopefully when I get down there in weight this time it will become natural and the yo yo string will break. I have no idea how to post them on here ... I'll try and put them into my profile. Here goes nothing.

    you are doing great Maggs. You should be very proud. 32 pounds down is awesome. Many of us stumble on the way, the important thing is knowing you are worth getting back up and keep on going.

    BTW I just finished the elliptical and I am skipping the shred tonight, I had to go back and remove it from my planning which pushes my calories over. After I put my 2 youngest to bed I had to play taxi for my 13 year old and her friend so I did not get on the elliptical until just after 9 and I have an early morning so i am punking out. I guess I will just have to eat a little under throughout the week for balance and I will have to workout an extra 20 minutes some other day this week.

    So I sent in my pictures for the spreadsheet website. The before picture was a real wake up call for me around the time I discovered MFP. I did not use it as a before the first time because I was so ashamed I did not want to acknowledge its existence but now it is nice to be able to see how far I have come. even though I have work to do I will NEVER be that person again.

    BTW I was on a zip lining trip hence the funny gear...

    You look amazing!

    Thanks- I've been crocheting since I was 6! I only just recently found out other people like my stuff. :laugh: My family and friends are kind of jaded I guess. :laugh: WHen you grow up with crocheted stuff you don't really know the worth of it. :laugh:

    Oh, How is everyone doing with the 10 minute workout challenge? I missed mine yesterday but hopefully today I'll dust off the elliptical and hop on. It is BL night... That should help motivate right??????????

    Glad you found the disk. That is a horrible feeling!

    Sure if you can post weights, the one from 2009 I was around 193, the one 2 weeks ago I am around 148. Thanks again for posting the pictures. My before picture is mortifying but good motivation.

    I am doing okay for the 10 minute challenge. I got in 30 last night and will get in 30 more each day this week hopefully more. Saturday I cleaned like a mad woman so I think I will use that as my 10 minutes and Sunday I grocery shopped (weak I know, but we went to my in laws for the day so it was the only real activity) I only plan on totalling my actual workouts for the spread sheet though. Oh and I have to walk to do school pick up today so there is 30ish more minutes (but very moderate since I have to walk at kids pace).

    I love having the spreadsheet and the challenge again!!! I am so super competitive even if I am only competing with myself to make my quota. :laugh:
