    Thanks for the link cmriverside! i am in for sure...i don't weight myself anymore (the scale hasn't budged in a year and i was getting a little obsessed with the weighing)...maybe i'll try to squeeze into my old skinny clothes every friday and then i can just tell you my equivalent of a weigh-in... "too tight, so tight i couldn't breathe, or almost got my big butt stuffed into them" :laugh:
    i don't have a preference for the name...i know where to find ya! :tongue:

    That's a GREAT idea rather than getting discouraged by the scale!!!

    U funny, Original "January-Girl". :laugh: I'm going to do the NO BAKERY TREATS FEBRUARY again. I made it through the whole month of January with only one cookie and one slice of pumpkin bread - which you graciously allowed me to call a 'vegetable'. But I was starving and they don't have salads at coffee shops. ( blah - blah - blah).

    I don't even own a scale. I like your "tight-ee" idea. :drinker:
    Enjoy the big game!

    I weighed in last week at 151. This morning I was down to 148!! I haven't been below the 150 mark in FOREVER!!!

    Though I know I'm not going to be the one losing the most weight, this is VERY awesome for me!!! Can't wait to lose more!!!

    Hey - not fair. If YOU can lose 2 pounds in a week and were the same weight as me, then I should be able to TOO! :tongue:

    I'm gonna lose 2 pounds this week if it kills me! :laugh: (OK, I'll settle for ONE!)

    & Congrats on leaving the 150's behind you! :wink:

    I know of someone who bought a button down top she loved in a size too small.... every week she took a picture of herself wearing that top (which would barely button at first) Her goal was to be able to wear that top comfortably buttoned all the way down without it pulling.

    It was kinda cool to see the progression of her photos and how that top fit better each week!

    I love these ideas! I have an outfit from my "skinny" days that I have never had the heart to part with - I am totally pulling out that outfit and taking my picture - gaping blouse, unzipped pants and all! And when it fits again I'm gonna post the before and after on our team thread... what a fun goal! Thanks for the motivation guys:bigsmile: :drinker: :bigsmile:

    OK - so my regular weigh-ins have always been on Saturdays - but I weighed yesterday since it was Friday and that's the day we picked for here. Yesterday I was 151- same as I'd seen on the scale all week, but TODAY - I got 150!
