    my weight was 149.2 this morning. i am honestly pretty much done losing, so i'm figuring as long as i am below 150, i am mentally ok...size 6 is small enough for me!!!

    i'm actually only 5'3" myself, so according to BMI i'm still overweight. but i'm trying really hard to not let those numbers get inside my head. i know that i am more than healthy according to body fat percentage, so i'm resting my hat on that. :wink:

    Thanks everyone for all of the support. I am doing so much better. Last week was rough. I was exhausted and week all the time but I got a lot of rest on Friday and my appetite is back so I am feeling good now. Only two more episodes left I think. We've all come so far. Those of you in the 140's 150's don't be discouraged. It goes by before you know it. congrats to Constance this week's winner with a 1.38% loss.

    Name week 19%
    constancemwj 1.38%
    wachugan 0.97%
    cc_campbell81 0.81%
    pamh5555 0.52%

    Happy Tuesday!

    Last week: 163.8
    This week: 160.0
    Lost 3.8 pounds this week. WOOHOO!!!

    I'm very excited. I used to think that 160 would be my goal weight. But I moved it down to 140 a few weeks ago because I think I can lose more. I only have a pound or two to lose to weigh less than my husband. I'd be lower than him already, but he lost weight doing so much boot camp, P90X and Insanity after seeing me trying to shape up.

    Now I'm going to reward myself with a trip to the employee security badge office to get a new badge photo! I'm walking around with a picture of my from over 4 years ago when I weighed at least 70-75 pounds more than I do now. WOOHOO!!!!

    Wachugan, that's so great. Congratulations!

    Does anyone know how to add photos on here? It would be cool if we posted before and after.

    I posted some pictures of me doing my Insanity workout on my blog this Sunday morning with my 3 year old daughter: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/waguchan :smile:

    We should add before/after photos on the final week. That would be fun!

    Wachugan- cute pics. Maybe I should try doing that to wear my 2 yr old out for bedtime! She likes doing stretches already.

    Current Weight 123lbs. No change.

    sorry, girls... i know i have dropped off of the face of the planet basically with posting my weight. the thing is, that i am basically considering myself to be at goal right now, and my weight has been fluctuating a little bit within a couple of pounds.

    i am trying to not be so obsessed with weighing myself in every day, and also i'm trying to not drive myself crazy with posting my weight weekly in here or even updating it on MFP. it just frustrates me too much to see my weight go up even by a pound over the course of a week, even though my body is still actually shrinking.

    so i'm not trying to abandon the group, but i am trying to keep a healthy state of mind right now, and i think that backing off of my OCD-ness just a little bit is the best way for me to do it!!! :ohwell:

    I didn't see the finale last night. I was at Taekwondo. I actually haven't seen any of this season. I hope you all had a great time watching it!

    My final weight is up 1 pounds since last week (stupid TOM).

    Last week: 160 lbs.
    This week: 161 lbs.
    My starting weight during week 1 of this Biggest Loser Challenge: 191 lbs.

    So I've lost exactly 30 pounds since the first week of January! WOOHOO!

    I'll try to dig up some before/after photos. Take care!

    Really? I'm the biggest loser? That's only because several of you are at your goal weight already. I still have 20 pounds to go.

    So here's a before photo from 2006:

    And here's one from November 2009:

    And here's one from January 2010, about a half month into this challenge:
    117407_4206.jpg

    And here's one from a few weeks ago:
    117407_3089.jpg

    I don't have a full length one from this week yet. But here's one of me doing Insanity with my 3 year old daughter a few weeks ago:

    Thank clheide! So do you! I love your latest profile picture. Very elegant!!

    CC said she didn't know how to post pictures. So here's some instructions:

    I just upload them to my profile first. But if you save them to an external web site (like shutterfly.com) and share them for anyone to view them, that should work too. Right click on the picture and select "Copy Image URL".

    Then past the Image URL in the post, like:
    http://photos.myfitnesspal.com/images/photos/117/407/117407_3089.jpg

    Then type <img> in front of the URL and </img> after the URL like this:

    <img>http://photos.myfitnesspal.com/images/photos/117/407/117407_3089.jpg</img&gt;

    But to get the picture to show up in the post, you have to replace the angle brackets < > with square brackets [ ]:
