    I'm not even getting on the scale this week, I went from 163.6 on Sat to 165.6 on Monday so that is just ARRRGH water weight and I don't even want to see those numbers anymore.

    This past week(ish) I have made a huge effort to drink more water. I bring a liter size water container everywhere I go and drink 4-5 liters a day. I think that was the big factor in me getting the 3.8lb loss. Dont let the #s on the scale get you down, yes its a numbers game but at the end of the day its how you feel right?

    At the end of the day (6 month period maybe) its whether or not I still have that that weird donut belly around the middle with a skinny top and reasonably toned bottom. *shakes it*

    Our scales went bonkers last week - have now changed the battery. You can put me down for about 1.5 I think.

    Ok, run down of my numbers for Feb:
    Feb 2: 314
    Feb 9: 309
    Feb 16: 306

    Have had a CRAZY week, didn't get to work out hardly :( and really had to struggle to eat consistently.

    The good news though, had some lab work done end of Feb. Everything looked great. While I have had decent cholesterol and triglycerides already (172 and 151), they improved to 158 and 125! Was very cool!

    We have two more days.. I have not drop anything at all that I can tell from my old USA made scales. I will be patent. I know it will go in its own time. My body is shrinking even if the scales are not moving. I put on blouse that use to fit and it looked really bad.. hung all over me. So sad isn't it.. LOL So I added a sweat shirt to cover it up. :smooched:

    I've lost 8 lbs in a little less than a month, so I guess I can do 1 lb a week for a month. That's only 4 lbs. I'll accept your challenge.
