CW: 229
I'm up 1 lb. Which is better than the 4lbs I was up mid-week last week. But that's what I get for letting life get to me, and making poor choices. *sigh*. Going for a better week this week!
Last week is gone. You have a new week to work with now. You can do this. You lost 3 of those 4 lbs you were up and that is great. You can do this!0 -
I lost a pound this week. I am at 148.

Soooooo weighed in today and . . . um . . . I LOST 4lbs EXACTLY!!!! I'm 234.7 I'm so happy and proud of myself!! Thanks for being such an awesome team and helping me in my journey. You have all inspired me to push myself and now I'm seeing the results. Team Perseverance you ROCK!!!!
I also want to let you all know that it is Anina's Birthday today! She was a late comer to our team but she is such a superstar. She is very dedicated with her exercise and an inspiration to me. She is the kind of person that everyone needs as a friend as she has such a big heart however sometimes she forgets to keep some loving for herself. Anina you are an awesome friend and I hope you have a fun filled and successful day. HAPPY BDAY GIRL!!!!!
KJ YOU ROCK!!! Thank you for bringing me back to MFP and introducing me to a wonderful new set of friends who are on the same journey!
