    Well, here are my updated stats!

    Starting weight: 271
    Current weight: 270

    I'm pretty sure I'm not going to reach my 10lb. goal because I actually gained then had to re-lose a couple of pounds . . . BUT, I am going to keep the numbers going down from now on!! :drinker:

    I am checking in.... I would have thought with being sick the past few days I would have lost some weight, but sadly no.
    I am still at 161.... Still 10 lbs away from my gaol. I did start exercising again today. I hadn't been able to for almost a week. I hink I had the flu. Body aches, hot and cold spells, and absolutely NO energy.... Today is the closest thing to normal I have felt in a little over a week. :ohwell:

    At least I have lost another 1/2 inch off of my butt.

    Love my new scales - 'cause they already went down!! So much easier to read, too! I seem to be on track for the HJCC, so will keep doing what I'm doing!

    So, after only losing inches for awhile, I finally lost a pound. It may not seem like much, but I did a sort of jig this morning. I don't think I'll be able to meet my Christmas Challenge, but I'm not changing it yet.

    My x-mas goal was to be at 138 and well i just dont think im going to be making that. Im really not logging on that much due to the strict diet iam on now doc said i should be better in a couple of weeks and back to eating normal then. Right after the holidays it looks like better for me in some ways and sucks in others. I am trying to watch so that i dont gain which ive been doing ok. I have gained two pounds but im more the positve its water weight as i have added alot of salt to my diet and not to much water :( Hope everyone else is doing good. USM how are you coming along on your challege?

    just checking in.

    I think I started this at 193.7 and I am now 192.1 so I lost 1.6 pounds over the last week! YAY ME!! :drinker: I don't know if I will loose the whole 8 pounds I wanted to or not but if I get under 190 by christmas I will be happy.

    Good Luck all you LOSERS!!! :bigsmile:

    Checking in again.

    Down 1.1 pounds. I don't think I'm making that 6 pounds left till christmas but I fit into a large shirt yesterday so I'm ok with how everything is going!

    Congratulations on the qutting smoking. After smoking for 20 years or so, I finally quit in April 2007 and I am so glad that I did. If you've made it 77 days, you have it in the bag. Keep up the good work!

    My original goal was to be under 200 for Christmas. I hit that 3 weeks ago, so then it was to be 190. Well, since I am 191.8 now I am going to ask for 185!!!

    I really want to tell my family that I have lost 75lbs!

    I am at 189.2 as of this morning. Now, 4.2 lbs is a lot in 2 weeks, but I average 2.6-3 lbs lost a week so I hope I can do it!

    I lost 2 pounds. only 6 more before x-mas.... I hope I can do it.

    Maybe if I start doing 60 minutes on the elliptical every other day will help. Especially if I don't eat my exercise calories .
    60 minutes burns 712 calories at my weight and on the cardio setting.

    Ok, so I'm officially not going to meet my goal of 145 and I can admit it. I've lost 2 1/2 inches though (total) so, I figure that I'm gaining muscle and losing some fat. So, new goal is to lose another inch and a half before Christmas.

    Keep up the great work all of you that are in line to meet your goals.:flowerforyou:
