Hi SBOO,

Thanks for the info, I was told the same thing, I just didn't think it would happen this fast. I just really started working out on this challenge so, I was surprised. I probably would have quit again if it wasn't for the inches i lost! Just goes to show you that it's not always about the number on the scale!!

Hi Tina,

We are having unusually warm weather here in the Northwest but a bit of snow to keep us Canadian.
Looking forward to checking my stats tomorrow. I'm wearing pants that were too tight a month ago and it feels great just to put them on without having to suck my stomach back to my spine!!!! LOL
I feel like I have had a great week and I hope everyone else has too!!

See you all at Check In in tomorrow!!

I guess it's my time not to lose. ): One good week-no weight loss this week. ):

Hello everyone,

So last week, I worked out super hard and saw no weight loss. This week I think it finally caught up and I am down 2 lbs. It has been a crazy week for me (next week isn't looking much better), so I didn't exercise nearly as much as I should have. Overall, I am pleased, but hope maybe next week I can do better. Good luck to everyone!
