I'm checking in at 193 today. I'm pretty sure I'm up a couple of pounds since this started. I honestly can't even remember if I checked in last week. I was on vacation all last week, so I'm not beating myself up about the small weight gain. I'll lose it this week. :-)

161.5. Missed the check-in last week and was 163.5.

Missed this challenge. Hope to catch May's.

Amy checking in ...still the same

Weighed in this week at 176.4

Dawn checking in at 195 for 4/15/12!!!

Checking in at 190! Down 3 pounds! Yay!

Hanging at 205 for almost the whole week!! I miss my ketosis :( .....................darn brownie ..grrrrr( first sweet thing I have had since my birthday in February)

I will get my first fill on thursday the 26th so I think I will limit my carb intake for the next week or so. Maybe I can still make my 199 goal by April 30th......If not, I should be there by the time we leave on our cruise on May 4th.

210 this week!

177
