Hi all - been traveling for 3 days and eating 3x a day in restaurants but I think I stayed pretty close to plan. An atkins bar once, some nuts another day and a couple sugar free indulgences but overall pretty good and mostly fish, eggs and veggies. I am still a little afraid of the scale tomorrow since TOM is due any second and all the salt and who knows what from all the restaurant food. Gulp - I will know tomorrow. Wishing whooshes for all!

Count me in! I play tennis and my ladies' tennis team is going to State in Mobile in June. 30 lbs off would mean I wouldn't feel like I have to hide behind everyone else every time a picture is taken Plus it will help make the heat a little more endurable!

weighed again this morning (can't stop the madness) up another pound but TOM started so I wont count it. Too bad today is my one week mark. But induction is 2 weeks so I am going to really try hard not to weigh again until next Wednesday. I was a little worried yesturday cause I was craving sweets bad. now I know why. I had to make cake and cookies for my sons birthday today with frosting normally I would have ate so many by now but not even a lick for me and I didn't even have an urge that is huge for me. Although the day's not over but with this program knowing I would have to start over again will totally keep me focused. Well have a great day everyone. Welcome Katelynal, I would love to learn how to play tennis although all the courts around me are covered in snow now.

Hey girls! Your all doing so great . I was up 4lbs. this morning , I cheated last night but TOM is coming, and I had alot of salty things, so I think it is mostly bloating. Took some duirex earlier so that should help. I am going to check my weight again in the morning.

bigmomma- Saw your pics on the progress board. You look great...you're so pretty & healthy looking! KUTG! Not gonna be a big momma for long! LOL!! Thx for the inspiration...

Don't know why but for some reason I am *REALLY* craving sweets today...even tho my carbs are below 20 for the past 9 days...PMS, I guess. It just doesn't happen often for me on induction (even during PMS)...bleahhhhh. Guess I'll just wait this one out and drink a lottta water!!!

New members to the challenge: welcome!

I'm down another pound or two but it isn't "official" until the Saturday weigh-in.

Hey guys! I have a big gathering at the beginning of July I want to shock people at, so the timing is perfect! I'm probably starting a little higher than 212 due to some cheating these last few days and not weighing, but I'll keep the goal at 182 anyway. The day I finally drop below 200 pounds again will be sweeeeeet....

Just copy the most recent list, paste it in the posting window, add your name in alphabetical order and you're in the challenge. It's quite simple, really

I'm excited to see everyone's progress for the week. So far I'm down 3 more pounds from Saturday's weigh-in but I still have a couple of days so maybe I can make it four!
