    I can't believe I lost so quickly this week! Wasn't expecting that at all! Was 278 on Wednesday and as of Saturday I am 276.4!!! Hoping for 274 by the end of this week!

    Okay, 274 it was not, but it's 275.6 and I think that's GREAT! Next week I'm shooting for 274.0 even or lower. I KNOW I CAN DO THIS!!!

    The biggest temptation challenge I foresee is this weekend. I live close to the racetrack in Indianapolis so it's non-stop festivities. My brother-in-law is having a party all day tomorrow, friend's birthday party tomorrow night, and race day is Sunday so big cookout at the in-laws. Will enjoy myself, but definitely watch portions and wine intake :wink: I'll be going to bootcamp tomorrow morning and kickboxing on Monday, but taking a rest day Sunday.

    Hope everyone has a great weekend!

    Sorry I forgot to check in this last weekend! It was an even 274 on Friday!! I was so excited! Having a grumpy, "I don't give a d@mn" day today which sucks because I indulged too much over the weekend so I'm trying to pull it together, but it seems today I'm just gonna be out of it. Hoping for 273 on Saturday. That would be incredible. Hope everyone's having a great week so far!

  • Count me in!! I just got new walking shoes, a set of walking buddies, and I've got the DVD set of Hip Hop Abs on the way. We are going to be walking an hour every night after work and in the mornings on the weekends. My kids are pumped too. I would love to lose 40 pounds by that date. I am 187 and would love to get to 130 so I'll take whatever I can get. I don't have a way to weigh in though because my scale is not accurate so I will weigh in on Mondays at work and report then :)

    Thanks for the motivator!!!!

    Best of luck everyone!!!
  • hey, 268.4 last week 266.6 today....yay!!!
  • is anybody still weighing in?? dont quit on me now guys!!!
