    I'm in on this one. I've been on Medifast, lost a total of 55 lbs. I've lost 3 lb since starting to track what I'm eating in MFP.

    Did my weigh-in this morning, was kinda disappointed, I guess I was expecting the same results as last week. I'm down to 135, which is a pound less than last week, but my first week on SB I lost 3lbs and I guess I was expecting the same thing this week.

    I'm going to a mini high school reunion lunch tomorrow and I'm am hoping to get into these capris that I love, haven't tried them on yet. I still have today to fight off atleast one more pound!!!!

    Hope everyone else has had a productive week!! And have a Healthy week-end!

    The scale has moved A LOT.... in the wrong direction! I am weighing in at 159 this morning. This puts me 5 lbs up from where I was a couple weeks ago. I am going to drink a lot, lot, lot of water today and hopefully flush out all of the sodium I have been eating. I am happy to finally feel motivated again and am expecting these 5 to come off easier than they did the first time.

    I made it- I made it- I made it!!!
    I made it to Onderland!! I am officially under 200 lbs. My weigh-in this morning is 199.6 lbs! I look forward to the weekend but at the same time I'm a alittle nervous. My hubby is leaving tonight for the in-laws place a few hours away, the girls and I will head out in the morning. I am a huge snacker when I'm on the road. I will definately get some healthy snacks for munching so I don't stop at convenience stores and end up with junk food. Any good road trip snack ideas out there?

    HELLO PALS:

    WOW! I have been off on a NILE CRUISE the past week while my guests were visiting from AMERICA so I have not been on MFP at all. IT HAS BEEN 10 DAYS OF GUESTS AND MY WHOLE ROUTINE WAS TURNED UPSIDE DOWN BUT I MADE AS MANY GOOD CHOICES OF FOOD AT THE BUFFETS, AND DID AS MUCH EXERCISES AS I COULD. WE WALKED A LOT WHEN EVER WE WERE OFF THE SHIP ON TOURS. PLUS I SWAM A LOT IN THE LITTLE POOL ON DECK.
    WEIGHED IN WHEN I GOT BACK AND WAS DOWN A COUPLE POUNDS WHICH MADE MY DAY. I THINK MOST OF IT WAS SWEATED OFF IN THIS HEAT. IT WAS OVER 100 IN UPPER EGYPT MOST OF THE DAYS AND IT IS ALSO HOT HOT HOT IN CAIRO! I KEEP DRINKING WATER, PEEING AND SWEATING!! LOL

    What exciting fun surounding you right now! I am sooooo jealous, about the Nile cruise and the fact that you live in Egypt, how cool is that? I would love to travel there someday! Yes, Twin Lakes is in North Idaho between Rathdrum and Spirit Lake! Please have safe travels!

    Duluth is in northern Minnesota on the shores of Lake Superior. We have a great room with a great view of the lake. Was not expecting that when we booked the room. Last time we stayed at this hotel we had a view of the parking lot. It is beautiful here!

    Have a great evening!

    GOOD FOR YOU! Can't WAIT til I get there! That was the goal I set for myself in January. To hit 199 by my daughters wedding which is the 26th of this month. One more week. I just can't seem to get below 210.5 but I'm still proud of my loss.
