    Welcome everyone!!! we are so delighted you found us and of course you will be added to our group.
    Everone else- you have until midnight tonight ( wherever you are and in whatever time zone) to get with this challenge.

    Skinnydreams and Candace- thought you had forgotton- so glad you made the weigh in today. Looks like both you ladies are off to a killer start.

    I'll add the new arrivals and update all the stats tomorrow morning.
    I'm off on a night with the girls right now. I got to the gym today and burned those 300 calories I intend to drink back with a fine Pinot Grigio lol! Hey- there has to be a reward at the end of the week, right?
    This week has been awesome and I'm once again so happy to have found this site and all you kick butt gals.
    Where are the men?? I don't think we have any and of course they would be so welcome.
    Have a great weekend all you super skinny, hot tamales!
    Cheers

    Count me in too! I just started here and want to lose those extra pounds. Your story sounds like me to a tee... I get all dressed up and think i look great, then i see pictures and realize that there's more of me than i thought. Body dysmorphic but in a different way.

    start weight and current: 140 lbs
    goal weight: 110 lbs (only 5 ft tall)
    workout a minimum of 30 mins a day x 5 days a week.

    Hi! I'm up for the challenge, if it's not too late!

    I have 32 lbs to take off! That's 10 lbs a month, right? It's possible, with a lot of hard work and sweat!

    Current weight: 182
    Goal weight: 150
    Workout: 5 days/week


    I love this site for logging food! It's amazing what you discover about how many calories you've actually consumed!

    I am using a BeachBody product called ChaLENE Extreme. It's a series of exercise DVDs combining weights and aerobics. I also have a gym membership, which I need to start using again. I love the elliptical rider. I also like Spinning classes, but the bike seat hurts my butt, even with the seat pad I bought!

    So, I'll see everyone again on friday, right?

    Ok, I have a weight loss ticker, but I don't know how to put it at the end of my post. If it doesn't show up here automatically, could someone explain to me how to do it? Thanks.
