    Happy Birthday, Shirley! Looks like you got the best and cutest gift possible! (And the fitbit is a nice bonus :) )

    I'm sticking with my Friday weigh-in, before allllll the food took place. So my total loss for the challenge was 16.6 lbs.
    Tomorrow is going to be my de-bloat "detox" day, I'm going to get back on my regular calories, and drink lots and lots of water, and hopefully go to the gym. That way I can start off Monday right! If all goes well, I should be at my 140 lb. goal by July 4th, I'm excited!

    I look forward to getting to start at page 1 on Monday, I know I must've missed out on a lot at the beginning of this Easter thread. I'm glad I'll still get to hang out with all of you every day, too. :)

    I can't wait to see the loss tally! I'm seeing so many great numbers, you all are doing fantastic!

    Well I started this kind of late, but have enjoyed reading your posts. This is such a nice group. Happy Birthday, and congrats Shirley. Beautiful photo. Looking forward to the new challenge. I'm happy that I have logged my food every day, and have lost 12 pounds.

    Happy Easter, friends!!! Well, I am pleased to report that I've lost quite a bit of weight this past week and my BF% has dropped by 1.4%! I am going back to something that worked for me for ten years in the past. I had simply wandered away from it for no particular reason. I plan to continue eating this way for the July 4th challenge.

    I'm excited to hear from Connie on Tuesday our total pounds lost!!!

    Congratulations to each and every one of us for our losses and, most importantly, sticking with it!!!

    CW:173.3

    Total lost this challenge: 12.7 pounds! :-)

    Another fact to celebrate is that as of today, my BMI has finally moved from obese to overweight. Normal BMI, here I come.

    UGW:140 Started in January with 46 lbs to lose and now have 33 left to lose! Yeah :-)

    Happy Easter!!

    Just wanted to report my challenge weight:

    I lost a total of 25 lbs!!

    Start weight: 191 lbs
    Start Challenge weight: 186 lbs

    Current weight: 161 lbs

    Total loss overall: 30 lbs

    Looking forward to seeing what our total weight loss is and for the next challenge. I'm hoping for the same results but seems like I'm slowing down now.

    Happy Easter! Going to weigh in before all the festivities start!
    Sw 223
    Cw 208.2
    Ugw 135

    That puts me at 14.8 pounds list but I don't mind if you round to 15 :P was going for 15 but I got pretty darn close. Excited for the next challenge can't wait to knockoff another 20lb! Think I'm going to work out before done of these festivities to help balance today out. I haven't done a good work out in at least a week and a half almost two weeks butt I have been working a lot. I work in retail so I'm on my feet running around the store the whole time so that's helped. But this week I'll get to hit all of my classes since they don't conflict with work.

    Shirley - happy belated birthday and arrival if a grandson! So cute! I love babies! Can't wait for a littLe one of my own but I want to get healthy first! I well see you all tomorrow in our new challenge!

    Happy Easter everyone!

    Shirley- Happy birthday and congratulations. What a lovely photo of you with your gorgeous grandson. Thank you for posting it.

    Congratulations to all our wonderful losers. There have been some amazing losses. Thanks again to Marie and Connie for guiding us through this Challenge. I don't think I would have lost anything without all you ladies.

    My weight loss is 'only' 4 lbs, but for me that is a huge success. I am really pleased and will try hard to lose even more in the next Challenge.

    HAPPY EASTER TO ALL MY FRIENDS HERE!!

    What an accomplishment for all the ladies who had a big loss. Kudos!!

    I am going to try and get my fit bit set up today, I got instructions from a friend on here to link up
    with MFP so will try that too.

    We had some snow this morning. :s Just won't quit. I had a nice birthday yesterday and thank you for all the best wishes. It has been a merry go round this week. I am looking forward to the next challenge and getting to know the new members on here. Welcome to the group.

    I just want to say Marie and Connie you did an amazing job keeping up with everyone here!!
    It is a large group but everyone had their comments answered which is hard to do when life
    gets in the way.

    Looking forward to the next challenge and helping and supporting everyone with our struggles.

    Enjoy your Easter with your family and friends.
