I will also post for yesterday and I was 164 lbs.

Weight on Jan 8 - 277.6, so down 2.4!

WI: 265 Checking in

Sorry I am late checking in this week. I went on a ski trip and just got back yesterday. And unfortunately I guess my eating was off while I was on the trip because I weighed in at 179 when I got back which is up 3 pounds. Ouch!!!!!! Oh well I will get that off this week and be right back on track! Had a great time skiing this year though. Being 75 pounds lighter sure does make a difference in the physical abilities on the slope.

Very frustrating. I worked my patooty off this week at the gym. NO CHANGE. Back to the gym tomorrow! Great job to all! Let's keep up the good fight.

Checking in very late. My brother was in a major motorcycle accident and I have not been thinking about anything.

I'm down to 258.6

I am starting back At the gym on Saturday !

so I've been doing the challenges since October, and unfortunatly missed this one! I've had a lot going on with changing jobs and everything, so I didn't end up logging on. But I'm back, and I'm down 71 pounds so far! Now that the stress is gone, and I joined a gym, I'm back to losing again! I'm so excited, I was so sick of that plateau!! Just wanted to update you all, and i'll be back next month!

checking in a day early hit my goal this week was 263 last week and today 257 6lbs down this week woo hoo!
