    April, I love the graphic you made! Too freakin' cute.
    TEAM H20.. WE HAVE SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF.. in EIGHT weeks we have lost a total of 450 pounds..

    We currently have 63 active members.. Which equals to over 7 pounds as an average.. which i know some have lost more and some have lost less.. WAY to go.. EVEN if you didnt hit the 20 pound mark we DO have something to be proud of..

    I have the H20 12 Pounds of Christmas challenge up.. although it doesnt start until Saturday.. :)

    Thanks for doing the math! I'll do the final math, once everyone has posted their final weight. :)

    Pam, I think you should re-weigh one more time for this challenge, on Saturday at midnight or Halloween morning, since this challenge was 20 pounds by Halloween. Maybe you can make a little more progress in the next four days. Doesn't hurt to try!

    Good morning everyone! Still sick here, but I feel like it's almost over (been a week now)...however, my wonderful hubby has it now. Why are men such babies about this crap?! He starts whinning to me last night on how he aches and such and when I tell him how I was telling him the same stuff over the weekend and he didn't believe me, his response..'You didn't hurt like this!' How the heck would he know if I hurt more or less? Ugh, men!

    Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well, both health wise and weight/inches wise. I think my scale is broken. It goes up with sodium and food throughout the day, but when I weigh in the mornings (honesty time, I have been weighing myself EVERYday :blushing: but b/c I wanna know the exact day I hit 'ONE'derland :bigsmile: ) and every time it says 200.8 with the exception of the ONE time it read 200.6... lol. I'm suppose to go to a bday party tonight, but if hubby is going to be a big baby, I'll either be at home with him or I'm taking the truck and going. We'll see. Although he dragged me all over h3ll and creation this weekend after the wedding, knowing I was sick, and this is just a few hours, I think he should suck it up, but I doubt that will happen! :grumble:

    I can't believe it's almost November!! The year has really moved by us! I'll have my last weight posted Sunday. Have a great weekend!! I'll be back tomorrow for my last 'scheduled' weigh in.


    And I :love: the new graphic!! Too cute!! And WTG everyone 450lbs so far is GREAT!!!!! We should all be proud!! ROCK ON!!

    Weighed this morning at 154, two more lbs till the 20! Ahh so close but I think I will be just shy of the goal. That is okay though I am still very very proud of myself and everyone else who has kicked butt in this challenge.

    I am LOVING the new graphic I can't wait to add it to my signature! I love the Holiday season!! It is going to be even better this year because I am skinnier, fitter, and healthier than last year :)

    So sorry to be out of the loop....just got caught up on all the happenings. Everyone has done well! Of course, I found this kind of late so I didn't put forth full effort...but I am so game for the next challenge.
    Loved your costume Pinky...I am going to a Halloween party Sat...my hubby and I will be hippies... I have to work all weekend too so I can't have too much fun..haha.
    Looking forward to getting back in the game!

    I can't wait to see pics from those who get to dress up this Halloween!! I am not going anywhere, that I know of, so I'm pretty sure I won't be dressing up.

    I was bored yesterday, so I attempted an older hair style...

    I see a difference in you cheeks, your cheekbones are more defined! 7 lbs is still an accomplishment!

    I've never been good at saying this, so I will just come out and say it, Nicks grandma passed away this afternoon due to what they think was a massive heart attack. Please keep us in your thoughts. The hardest part is explaining to Grandpa what has happened, Nick's mom and uncles are trying to do that right now. Grandpa has no idea at this point and is going to take it hard as he wasn't well enough to see her. She was suppose to visit him in rehab today and we found out that he has blood in his urine and is going back to the hospital. Please conitnue to pray for him. I hope he fights but we all think he's going to give up. Love you all, please hug your family tight tonight and always. Just please keep us in your thoughts. Thank you all.

    Bru, I`m so sorry to hear that. With everything that`s been going on I`m sure this was the last thing that you expected. You`re in my thoughts and prayers.

    Ok, so I didn't make the 20 pounds but oh well. I've actually done very bad the past couple of days and put on a couple of pounds. I'll do better for the Christmas Challenge.

    Okay, not quite 20 lbs. I am down .8 this week for a grand total of 16.8lbs. Not too shabby at all. That is 16.8lbs GONE from this body! Now, to do the same for Nov/Dec! On board for the 12lbs of Christmas.

    I'm keeping a lookout for the challenge (I do love a challenge!). I've been intrigued by the H2O on peoples signatures! Added the Christmas one to mine already!

    I love the idea of donating whatever we lose in weight, in monetary terms, to charity. I certainly WILL be doing that!

    Final Weigh In!

    SW - 220

    End Weight 207.5

    It's not 20 pounds, but I'm very, very happy. It's gotten me way out of the 217-220 plateau I was stuck on! YAY! Onward to Christmas!

    I'll be posting my weight here tomorrow (well technically today since it's past midnight here lol). This is the final day huh? Dang! I didn't quite make 20 lbs lost, unless I wake up 2 lbs lighter - which actually has been known to happen - so I guess we'll see!

    This has been a fun challenge and I look forward to the next one! :D
