    sticking with my calorie limits. Energy improved. Did notice I got light headed a couple times at work when standing up quickly. I increased my water intake and it improved. Just saw commercial for doritos, I miss my doritos.

    I would like to share how my week went before our Sunday weighin..

    I feel great! I feel like my belly is flatter and I feel like I'm standing taller and prouder and I actually feel my clothes are looser!! I decided not to introduce weights this week. I have s tendency of gaining weight really quickly and when that happens the scale goes back up. I know that if I see the number in the scale

    Not as bad as I thought it would be. Two nights eating out. One at a pizza/pasta place. Bad news for my calorie control! I've got better plans this week. I'm not giving up.

    Fell off track recently for few days. I ll be honest too many events this month. It was hard on me to watch what I ate all the time. But have to keep it going. Because so far i am still loosing but very little.

    I forgot to weigh! First thing Monday morning is usually my weigh day so I always forget on Sunday morning until I'm halfway through the day. I will check in tomorrow.
    Keep up the work everyone!

    Did well cutting calories at wedding reception last night. No bread or potato. No candy from the candy table. The salad, chicken, string beans and 1/2 a cupcake were just enough to fill me up. I did have one amaretto sweet and sour with OJ as a cocktail. At midnight I start the amazing race challenge. Let's see what a boost of added exercise does to my weight for next weeks weigh in.

    Hi guys! If Any of you are interested in extending the challenge, I ll be starting another challenge but not as aggressive as 2 lbs per week. As someone mentioned above, seeing your progress and accountability is what makes challenges work at least for me. Thanks for keeping each other motivated.
    Oct 24 to Dec 19 !! 8 weeks 8 lbs!!!
    Are you ready ?
