    Great work to everyone this week! I forgot to do my measurements this morning so I will add them tomorrow morning.

    Congrats to our three ladies that have pasted their monthly goal!

    Soon2bMrsRamos is our biggest loser with 7.75 inches gone this week. I know you are sad that the scale isn't moving but it is VERY clear that you are doing something right if you can drop that many inches in one week! Congrats!

    Kiku76 and Jessicabergeron both tied for 2nd place with 4 inches gone this week. Both of them also achieved their goal this week! Way to go ladies!!

    dfeledichuk is third with 1.5 inches this week! Great work!

    ----Next week is our last week of the month. Since this will be your final measurement of the month you can measure on any day that you would like. I will be posting a new September board sometime next week. I hope that you guys decide to carry on with us.
