    Because it will be my final goal achieved, I will repost my success story (I did one for one year's MFP success so far) and then I am going to treat myself to some luxurious face cream - and maybe open a bottle of sparking wine and enjoy! And log it :laugh:

    Total weight lost: Blah. I did a little experiment of upping my calories this week and adding in some more gym time, but I also totally slacked on tracking as well as I had been. Going to get serious this week again and see if I can budge the scale and at least break out of the 180s.

    Just for fun: What are you going to do for yourself when you lose 5 pounds this month? Buy a new pair of jeans! I am super close to being back in a 12 so by month end I should need them :)
