Up two, I hate this yo-yo garbage. Thought I would be getting away from this way of losing weight.

Come on restriction, next fill March 7th.

Down to 235.5 only .5 away from my goal. Let's see if I can maintain on a weekend music trip.

I have been having trouble making the time to get the chart uploaded, I will try to get it uploaded this weekend but it depends on when I get home from Metamora.

Sarah checking in at 219. Boo.

Checking in today at 145! I hit my challenge goal a week early, woohoo! Let's see if I can make it to 143 by the end of the month.

So close to my goal of 138 and my stretch goal of 135.

I'm at 230. I've lost 80 pounds!!! this blows my mind!!!!!

Only 3 pounds to meet my goal for the month! Hopefully if I can get back to the gym...

I need to get back to the gym. We've been struggling through illnesses at our house, and only having 1 vehicle and trying to juggle 3 jobs. It's been pretty stressful. Hoping to get back to the gym by Saturday! I miss it!!!!!!

Check in! 211 this morning. Weight loss total: 4 pounds. At this rate, I probably won't meet my goal (it was a little far fetched anyway) but I'm still going to try! :-)

Checking in at 209! 6 pounds down!

Agnes checking in at 172 this morning. I am not the doing so hot this month. I started this thing at 171 and here I am one week away from the finish of the challenge up a pound. Well I have been awful with my eating this month, so it is no surprize, but the last couple of days I have been getting myself back on track so I will try my best to end the thing with at least being down a pound and not up. I hope everyone else is doing better than me. Well I will see yall at the finish line!!
