Thanks for yet another fantastic opening post, April. <3

The weigh-in log is updated! Please take a peek and let me know if you spot any problems. www.teamh20.webs.com

It ain't easy getting the starting posts together. April puts a lot of work into them. She'll get Week 5 up and running as soon as she can. Just like I'll get everyone's Week 3 and 4 weights into the log as soon as I can!

Silly MFP...I had NO idea there was an expiration date on the private messages. That's so sneaky. :(

Oh my you guys, I'm so sorry I've been slacking with the chart/website! I need to plug in the Week 3 AND Week 4 scores! I'm hoping once I get alone time tomorrow that I can get stuff done. Thanksgiving took over the last couple days, and then I released a new line of necklaces, so I've been a busy little beaver!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!! <3 Sasperilla, enjoy the holiday and go have fun! Since you don't know how many more holidays you'll get, you have to just live life y'know?

LOL I love the walking turkey! He's got the greatest expression! I too am very thankful for this group. You all have helped me so much to realize that my goals are attainable and that even when there are bad days, life keeps going forward. I hope everyone has a great holiday and enjoys every moment of it!

Christmas Challenge SW: 180.8 Christmas Challenge CW: 175.6 5.2 out of 12. Looks like I'm on track!

Me being the gutter brain that I am, I'm SO voting for the naughty or tongue-in-cheek options. ^..^ <--devil horns

Happy Monday, everyone! I'm sorry I haven't been giving everyone the attention I had been...finally got my out-of-my-house jewelry business going and it has been a busy few days! I'll get back in here, because you guys are the reason I keep trying my hardest. You're part of the reason I've been so happy recently. So, to…

Yay Week 4! Amazing how the time flies. We've got such a great group here, I agree April, we need to keep H20 going!!

Oh no April, I'm so sorry to hear about your puppy! Puppy health issues seem to be going around. :( I hope he gets better!!!

@Bru I hope your MIL starts acting normal soon. You and your hubby don't deserve her negativity. Your thread is wonderful! Your success is wonderful! And I have no doubt that you will find a job very soon. @April - WTG completing the full video! I've never done any of the videos but from all that I hear about them from MFP…

I'm going to nudge my weigh-in for this week. I hopped on this morning and got 177.4. I'm taking it because it shows a loss for the week and also marks 20 pounds lost for the year! Giggity Giggity Goo!!

@Certified, congrats on the 4 pound loss! That is freakin' fantastic. Don't go being apologetic about not weighing more often. I completely know what you mean about wanting to spread the word. I feel like a Mormon on their mission when it comes to MFP. I want to tell everyone the good news! :laugh: Oh In-n-Out! That is one…

Happy hump day everyone. Hope y'all are having a good Wednesday. I'm up 0.2 pounds this week to 177.8. Not gonna stress since it is practically a maintain and my body's got this habit of loss-loss-gain, and this was the week for the gain.

Just FYI to those still posting in here, we've moved on to Week 3...http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/134238--h20-12-pounds-of-christmas-challenge-week-3

:bigsmile:

@francesstewart - I'm so jealous that you're going to Spain! WOW! How fun. @looby - owie! Hope the meds kick in and you feel better. Neck pain is such a hassle.

I'm sure no matter what loss you're able to accrue by now and the 28th your family is going to be so happy and proud of you. Good luck with your walk today, I hope it goes well. Since you can't seem to get the healthy regularly into your routine, maybe you need to change up your routine. I know this is going to sound…

Ah jeez I totally misunderstood your post. Sorry. Congrats on the astonishing loss!! *bow*

@AprilVal, congrats again on your killer loss! @cmc, way to go! Glad you got a walk in. @kattungen, stay positive! You've done great so far and even though you're going to be put through the trenches this week I'm sure you'll still come out ahead! And I hope you enjoyed the hell out of that slice of pizza and drink! Pizza…

Thanks! And we're working on the Christmas decorations! Trying to get Nutty Rudys made, but I'm not quite happy with their design yet. But will definitely have the cutest clothespin reindeer on the block! And I've got bunches of Christmas cards in the works...and then the jewelry that I'm thinking you may like. :D WTG on…

WOW Week 3 is already hopping! I can't catch up right now - I'll try to tonight - but I'm just coming down from a happy high. Finally had a good showing at a craft fair. Sold 6 cards and 17 of my turkeys, which is fantastic! I'm pumped and doing research to make sure my partner in crime and I get in to all of the holiday…

Happy Friday! @AprilVal, I like that you've added a nightly routine. And holy flaming meatballs, what a fantastic loss! @nursee, your coworker gave you some interesting advice. Might have to give that visualization tactic a shot! @certified_femail, OMG, 13 pounds in one week!?! That is just scary. da dum da dum da dum. ;)…

@Stacy and Nursee, well here's the secret...I opened up Note Pad (the simplest little word processor/note jotter on the computer) and wrote down what I wanted to say to everyone as I went through the pages. Then, copied and pasted. Ta-da! :happy: @April, Buddy Slim sounds like a rap song. :laugh: Good luck with H20 over…

@cmc, good on you for not getting discouraged and getting right back out there for a good walk! @AprilVal, glad you and hubby got some good time in together. ;) Let me know if you come up with some good menu items - I'm so bad at planning meals that when I go to the store I'll have an idea for one or two days in advance,…

Cute cute! Hey make sure to join in on the Week 2 thread here...http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/132419--h20-12-pounds-of-christmas-challenge-week-2

Oh Bru I'm so incredibly sorry. Your family hasn't had any time to heal from the loss of your grandma...and now grandpa... :(

kattungen, I have a hard time not hopping on the scale all of the time too. One thing that's helped me is that I keep the scale in a not-so-easy to reach place. Along the lines of you putting it in the closet, mine's in the bathroom but has a couple of other things sitting on top of it. So when I want to use it I have to…
