    great job stormiel!!! That's fantastic:)
    Sorry gals for not being on here very much lately, It's hockey season, and I seem to be always at one rink or another...I'm glad I have people to keep me accountable though because it's so darn easy to eat greasy burgers and fries at the rink!! I've been talking healthy snacks, but I gotta say...my willpower is starting to crack:):)

    thanks ladies for the compliments :)

    Looks like another fun challenge for next week. I can't believe this is the last one before Christmas. My goal is to be down to 260 by Christmas..that's another 15lbs..possibly a little high but I'm going to try for it anyways.

    Another 5lbs for me :) I might just make that 260 by Christmas. I'm sure I'll hit a plateau soon but I'm going to enjoy this while I can.

    Hope you ladies have all had a good week

Still have 12 lbs to reach my goal for xmas though...oh well I'll hit it at some point in the new year I guess:) Have a great day ladies!!

    No weight loss for me this week. I have been going downhill - but I am back on track as of today. I won't be at my goal for Christmas, but maybe there will be another challenge for 2012???? :)

    so I weighed on Friday and it was another four pounds but I didn't believe it so I weighed again today and it was so yay! I've already missed out on the no sweets thing. My sister just got in from America to spend Christmas with me and our mom sent me a bunch of homemade fudge among other things. I don't think my sister has actually brought any clothes just food and christmas presents.

    I've really enjoyed these challenges, thank you so much for putting them all together.
    Good luck for the last week ladies!

    Well.........I maintained between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I actually lost two pounds early on, but then stalled out and just sat at 134. But I am ready to get back to it, now. Today I overate......leftover junk that didn't make it onto goodie plates for other people. Ugh. But it sure is delicious!

    Great challenge, ladies! Thank you so much! I have NEVER been so aware through the holidays of what/how much I was eating, and this helped keep it all in perspective all along. I DID NOT GAIN WEIGHT! This was a win! Thank you all!!!!
