    Well Team I did not drop any weight this week, but it is also TOM so not suprised. Just glad I didn't see the weight gain. I have to say I have not been moving as much as I should so it is time to get my head back in the game. Well I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas

    SW: 152
    CW: 146
    Total loss 6 lbs.

    I have no idea what I weigh - I haven't weighed myself in days (that's a miracle right there). I'll try and weigh myself tomorrow and check in then. :)

    I hope you all had an awesome Christmas!

    Nice job everyone on your Christmas weight losses! I did not lose...but I am ok with that. This time of year is a little hard for me...too much hustle and bustle and too many treats. It is over now...ready to play in the next challenge. I got a Playstation move with Zumba so looking forward to trying that out. My clothes still fit..haha but the number on the scale is not pretty after the holiday.

    Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas...the New Year is coming...looking forward to celebrating another year!

    I have just been having a nosey at the weigh in logs, some amazing work right there, especially for this time of year, its so much harder to be healthy in the cold, dark weather. Well done :D And its a new year some, lets kick the scales *kitten*.

    Well I didn't lose much weight. Only 8.4 out of the 12. I was SO confident I would do this - But that plateau for over 3 weeks really killed it for me. Oh well, maybe I'll actually succeed in the next challenge! :D I'm looking forward to it.

    Hope everyone had a fantastic holiday!

    Since my last Wednesday weigh-in, the scale has gone up, which suuuuucks. :( Took my measurements and since I started keeping track (March 2010), I've lost 21 inches! That's just too groovy.

    Looking forward to our Valentine's challenge!

    Feeling oddly Eeyore today. I updated my goals on here and my calories were cut down by about 100, which I wasn't expecting but after I thought about it and realized why that happened, it makes sense.

    I think a big part of my problem is realizing I need to go back to work. I'd quit my full time job in April and we thought with lifestyle changes we made that we'd be just fine with me being home/doing my own little business from home. Notsomuch. I only need to find a part time gig, but I really don't want to go back into retail, and I'd feel kind of silly doing so since I've got my Bachelor's degree now...but I want the flexibility of a retail job. Rock and hard place.

    Final weigh-in...

    SW: 180.8
    CW: 173.4 (+0.4 lbs. this week)
    GW: 168.8

    TOTAL LOSS FOR CHALLENGE - 7.4 of 12

    A small gain after Christmas and just before TOM? I'll take it! Usually I'm up at least a pound before that wonderful crimson tide rolls in. I got more than half way on the challenge goal, so that makes me very happy.

    Everyone, y'all did an amazing job! I can't wait to do our Valentine's day challenge! It is going to be hard to not let chocolates and Russell Stover's Strawberry Cream Hearts tempt me. :tongue:

    MK is always an option. Your mom will be your first customer, lol. If I had time to devote to it, I could be making a bundle. You know how to reach me if you want to try it.

    I know Summer, thanks. My main problem with MK is that I don't use it. My heart belongs to brands like Bare Escentuals, and I've found in my past retail experiences that if I don't love what I'm selling, I'm not very good at it. But I'll definitely hit you up if I wise up!

    Hi! Sorry this is nearly a week late... but I just wanted to finish up my 8 week stats. I got down to 179.6, which means a total weight loss of 6lbs in 8 weeks. Not bad, I had a "relapse" over the holidays, so had to make up some ground. I'm looking forward to the valentine's challenge and getting back on track!
