    I lost one pound.....at 135. I was SO excited last night, after eating three meals and drinking tons of water, I got on the scale fully clothed - multiple layers because I'm freezing half to death all the time - with shoes on, and was STILL under 140!

    Congratulations on your loss, Stormie! Prairie, holding steady is good. The loss shows up next week for me quite often. You are on track and doing great!

    Good Morning Ladies!! Here is the challenge for week 10:

    -Try to get at least 200 minutes of exercise this week
    -jump rope for 1 minute twice a day (you don't need an actual rope, just go through the motions)

    Happy thanksgiving to all my american friends!!!

    Weighed in still at 135. Thank goodness LOL. I am 400 cals under net for the week and somehow didn't go over yesterday, which was what I was saving up for. I made an apple pie last night and had one piece - think I'll eat some more tonight! Yum!!!

    My fail for the last two days has been water. I've been drinking diet soda.

    I completely forgot to weigh this week. I'd been so good so that I could indulge on things like butter and potatoes for Thanksgiving and then could barely manage any of it...dieting has ruined me lol.

    challenges look good this week.

    Well done to the rest of you :)

    I ate horrible today!!!! For lunch I ate a pice of turtle brownie cake...supper I had taco salad & chicken wings...I must say though that it was good while I was eating it, but I feel pretty guilty about it now!! Oh well, tomorrow is a new day!:) Off to the rink to go skating with my girls, I'll have to do a few extra laps LOL!!

    Hey, we all fall off from time to time, but you have been consistently losing and should be proud of your progress! :) I love this week's challenge by the way! :) I am determined for this week to be a loss! Everyone is doing so well! :)
