    Hey ladies,

    Im going to check in tonight since I am not home to use my scale.. and there is no scale here lol so Im not tempted to use it!

    Im using my weight from Saturday morning which was 174.6lbs which is a loss of 0.6lb from last Tuesday. 0.6lbs left to lose for this challenge!!

    You ladies are a wonderful support system..thank you all so much for being there and being so wonderful!! I couldnt have come this far without you!!!

    Today I walked/jogged on the beach for 62 minutes. It was sooo cold, raining slightly and the wind blowing 10+mphs..it was easy running with the wind..but running IN the wind really pushed me.. I am soo windburned on my face... I wont be doing that again!! I am trying to behave with food..staying on par with breakfast, and lunch and dinner differ since we eat out. Avoided the fried foods tonight and went with steamed shrimp :wink:

    Okay ladies, gonna get back to hanging with the family..drinking a lovely red wine right now!

    Have a fantastic weigh in day and dont stress the small stuff..

    :heart:

    Katy, you look ah-mazing. While we may puff up your sails a bit, YOU are the driving force behind your weight loss. YOU are doing this. YOU are amazing!!!

    Cathy, only a pound over the holidays? WTG!! :drinker: LOL We shall see my damage later, but I'd say you did pretty well. I hope you have a blast at the NYE party. I've never been to one myself. I love that you are going at 50. I keep reminding myself that I don't have to do everything in life before the age of xx, that I have plenty of life left to live and plenty of time left (God willing) to get it all in. :smile:

    I shall be back later this afternoon with a weigh in number!! :indifferent:

    Good morning my ladies! Can you believe this is the LAST week!!!! That went by SO fast!

    Here are my stats

    Weight:
    Week 1-159 pounds (158 on Friday)
    Week 2-159 pounds (159.5 on Friday)
    Week 3-158 pounds (157.0 on Friday)
    Week 4-157 pounds (155.5 on Friday)
    Week 5-155.5 pounds (156.5 on Friday)
    Week 6-157 pounds :grumble: :grumble: :grumble:

    Goal (after week 6)-155 pounds
    Total to lose: 4 pounds (about 17% of my total left to lose)
    Total lost: 2 pounds
    Total remaining: 2 pounds:grumble: :grumble: :grumble:

    I'm very disappointed in myself...not for gaining a little over Christmas, but for continuing to gain over this weekend. I made some very poor decisions which I know is the reasoning for the gain, but I'll get over it. Now I have to get my butt in gear and work VERY hard to lose those 2 pounds this week!

    So...

    kistin that's why someone brought them into work, because they didn't want them around their house, so they would eat it. stop, step away from the treat dish

    Hi Ladies,

    Katy, Cathy, & Kristen You all did so great during the holidays. I am so happy for all of you being able to lose during the holidays is amazing. Congratulations to all of you for sticking to your good habits through the holidays!:happy:

    I am sorry to have to post my progress as a 2 pound gain over the holidays and we still have to get through this week. I wanted to at least maintain, but I failed. :mad: My family has been home (time off school & work) and they really throw a monkey wrench into my life. I do love having them home and cooking for them, but I obviously need to learn some better strategies and stick to them.

    Is anyone else thinking about a new challenge yet? I know I am.

    Ummm Deb...I GAINED over Christmas! And yes...I am TOTALLY looking forward to a new challenge! How about "Sixers Valentines Challenge"?? It will take us through February 17th (right after Valentines Day!!!) Let me know what you ladies think! And maybe another percent of our remaining weight! I have some added motivation...my husband and I are heading to Texas and Mexico on February 6th for a week! His grandparents winter there, so we go visit almost every year...it's SUCH a good vacation! So...I'm all about losing before that...it will be shy of the six weeks, but I think I can do great!

    Well...off to eat lunch! And no worries Cathy...I am staying FAR away from the treat plate!!!:wink::laugh:

    Hello to all! I am packed and just waiting for DH. Then we are off to the beach for New Years.

    I didnt participate much in this challenge but I still came on and read posts. They kept me from totally going overboard. I do really appreciate all of you and what you have added to this site and my life. I wish you all a Happy New Year!

    I am totally on for a new challenge. And I am going to make this the one that has success! Chat with all of you soon!

    I ate really poorly this week, especially yesterday (fast food for lunch, and frozen burrittos for dinner) so I'm going to chug the water today to flush my system and weigh in tomorrow. I KNOW I didn't gain 2.5 lbs in one day!

    How about Sixers Love Yourself challenge? That's why we're doing this, right, because we love ourselves? And maybe each week, or each day, when we post how we did, we can also add on a little something we like about ourselves. It could be diet related... Or our appearance,... Or about our personality. I've been really focusing on what I like these days, trying to perk myself up out of my holiday slump.

    I gained 4lbs over the holidays. :laugh: Oh well! Glad it only comes once a year! I also haven't been drinking all my water so easily 1lb of that is due to improper hydration. Not concerned... still 1lb down from where I began!! Progress is progress, regardless of how slow it occurs!

    I'm TOTALLY down for a Love Yourself challenge.
    Kristin, you are the SUPER BEST for running this for us. Much :heart: and :smooched: and :flowerforyou: to you!!!!
