UKCATSFAN, I am in it for the next challenge- set a new deadline. :lol:

Lost 1 more #. Seems like i get stuck for a while then the #s come off overnight...

:thumbdown:

I MADE IT!!!!

I said I would make 10 lbs by Valentine's Day and today I'm at 14# :thumbup: Getting a fill last week helped a lot. I now can only eat small amounts at a time. I was eating about 1-1/2 cups at a time and now can only do about 1/2 of that. Yeah! It's hard to gauge such a small amount when I put food on my plate but it sure fills me up. For the 1st time on Sunday, my DH and I went for breakfast and I only ordered an extra plate so I could eat some of his. He calls me his "Cheap Date". :party: Happy Valentine's day to everyone. I hope you all make your goals also.

congratulations to everyone who hit their goal. That is awesome. Personally I struggled a bit. I did lose 11 pounds...YEAH, but fell short of my 16 pound goal. Now during this period, I did get bronchitis and couldn't exercise for 2 weeks, and also was 2 weeks late for my first fill because of the snow. I know finding excuses for not doing the work. I still happy and so should everyone else. Those that hit the goal they set for themselves, have a nice time with your special someone or kids.

I bought a suit for myself the other day and had to buy all new pants because none of my old ones fit. How cool was it to actually shop for 2 sizes smaller. Much better on the brain than when I dread going to shop for larger clothes. I feel great today.

Enjoy the weekend and I'll be back on monday for another short challenge to get everyone focused on our journey.

Peace.....................:ohmy:

My goal was to be in Onederland by Valentine's Day. I'm happy to report I made it with a few pounds to spare. Yeah! :frown:

I'm ready for the next challenge....maybe a Spring Fling goal for WL or other related goal by March 21st

My goal for Valentines day was 20 lb and I finally got a fill on February 5th which helped be get to 8 lbs lost. Its not much but since the scale wasn't going anywhere its something. Now I'll shoot for St. Paddy's day cuz my one year is on the 18th of March!
