    I'd really love to play! I know I'm a day late but, I can still do it if its cool with everyone. I am weighing 191.8 and am hoping to be at 185 by teh first.
    My goals are to lose that weight.
    And to walk the dog, daily, epic walks, not the regular.
    And to stay under calorie goal for the whole time.
    And to get my water in.
    Wish me luck!!!!!

    Starting weight = 181lbs

    I went through a bit of a 'funk' this week so decided to go with the flow! Managed to only put on 2lbs so my end weight is 183lbs. Think the 'funk' was due to TOM making an appearance.

    I'll post my weight tomorrow morning (UK morning!!) I gained four pounds these past two weeks (had father in law here, and we did a lot of bad eating and travelling which also resulted in bad eating!!). BUT I have managed to lose three of those four pounds. So right now I'm at +1, but I'm hoping to see a further drop tomorrow? I would love to get that last pound out of the way so I can keep trying!
