    Happy New Year! Same weigh ins as last thread? Or do I need to change to another day for you Bluiz to make it easier? I noticed that I weighed after everyone else most weeks.

    I woke up this morning 2.5 lbs heavier, but being as 2 hrs later it was down to 2lbs heavier, it's all sodium.
    So! Starting at my last official weight:

    Jan. 1, 2011 !!! 156.8 :bigsmile:

    you can weigh in any day you want....i think we should all start with a weigh in today as it is the 1st day of the challenge but i will update the chart on tues/wed of each week....so anything you report after i do the chart will be updated on the next week's chart if that makes sense....
    once we have more people joining us, i'll make up the first chart...then i'll hold off on doing the 2nd chart until the 11th or 12th so that everyone gets a chance to work it out and join our thread.....

    Found it. Jan 1st weigh in 205.2.

    I am hoping it is up because I weighed in at a different time and I had another "holiday" party. Oh and sleeped deprived:yawn: ,(which means overeating on junk food. :frown: )

    My goal is 192 LBs

    well i forgot to take my medicine this am so when i jumped on the scale earlier today i was UNPLEASANTLY surprised to see 203??? i know like 5lbs is water because i retain sooooo horribly when i dont take my pill but it was very disheartening....
    no worries...i'm on board for a great week...have the dinner menu planned out already, have my exercise on the calendar already, joined the YMCA and am looking forward to mixing things up in the weeks to come....i can do this....

    here is the chart with the 11 members we have so far...i'm trying to get my sister in maine to join us so she has some accountability with others besides me...
    i updated ifychudy weight from yesterday for "next" week as she is not weighing in again until the 17th and i dont want forget and have to go back thru the thread to find her update....anyway....here we are...this is how i will do it once a week - probably on wednesday after i get all the updates for the week....

    Started some antibiotics today for a nasty, nasty infection. Hoping it doesn't affect my loss for the week. I need to get back to my regular H2O intake. I've been slacking since just before the Christmas holiday. Tsk tsk.
