    I got back to exercising the past 2 days after not doing anything for 2 weeks. It felt great! I can feel in my legs the 30 minute bike ride I went on last night.

    Good luck to everyone for the last 2 weeks! This is the final stretch. Make it count!

    Looks like I won't make my goal of 132.5 but if I can make it to 136.0, I would be so happy! I'm so close to my goal and losing is so hard at this point!

    Great losses showing up on the thread today, good job!

    Hmmm...interesting challenge. I'm trying a new recipe tomorrow or Saturday and it has zucchini in it. I have to admit I've never actually made zucchini before, I'm excited!

    dang it! i was really hoping to break into the 119s by the end of the challenge. these last 10-15 pounds have been killing me. oh well, the slower you take it off the more sustainable it is, i guess.

    good job those that did the challenge and tried a new food. i tried rice crackers (giving gluten-free a try for a while). they are... different. not bad exactly, but not what would be my first choice.

    Not in the right direction. It's getting to be that tom and I had Chinese food over the weekend and pizza last night. Other than that my food hasn't been all that bad. The number of calories isn't exorbitantly over my limit. It's just that my sodium is probably very high and paired with tom--not good:( Exercise is halfway there. The next 2 weeks will be better without school, but I will be going to the shore Saturday through Wednesday. I will do a final check in on Thursday.

    I say we go to Thanksgiving. It'll give us motivation all the way up to the holiday and hopefully get us through without any major binges. I like this small group we have here. Hope everyone keeps going!

    Good luck for the last week!
