Great progress, everyone. Oops on the beer, Liz.

I finally have a loss to report, 2 pounds, which puts me back into onederland at 199. Amazing what eating on plan will do for you, huh?

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Hi guys,
Well, I came home from work last night and ate a little something and drank a beer... oops! Then remembered the weigh in and figured I'd be up now... and sure enough up .5lbs today... oh well, it's tough doing those 10hr shifts on the weekend like that and getting home at mid night. Also had a head ache... I drank the beer because I'm trying not to take sleeping pills... Well, anyways, next week will be better. I wont' be working... that always messes up my wt with water retention.

It's great to see all the losses going on! Kate I love your new pictures! What a great transformation! yeah Kate!

have a good one everyone!

Have you tried Melatonin to help you sleep? It works like a charm for me (suffered insomnia for years but not anymore).

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Congrats Kassoria, Looseshoes, Chick, and Adena on the weightloss.

Atkid, Liz and gonnabskinny, hang in there.

Kassoria, I did not notice you changed your goal weight to 137. How ironic is that. My goal is still 140 and nosey people keep informing me I won't look right at that weight. Ugh!! Can I just reach out and touch someone?

I'm getting ready to scan my pics at 137 and let you be the judge.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Thanks Purplecat... yes, I took some of that too last night... I buy the Traderjoe brand... what brand do you buy? I think it's just that the neck and head pain were particuarly bad last night after 2 long back to back shifts. After about 3 hours of working it feels like I have a knife in my head. Turns out my MRI I have some disk 'bulging' and formaminal narrowing where the nerve comes out... which explains alot of the pain. I should be resting more... 3 more weeks until my 2 week vacation.

Hello all, quick report I'm down to 175.6!!!! This is a new all-time low for me! I finally got rid of the weight gain from being sick last week!

Great losses this week...everyone's either losing or maintaining...fantastic!

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Everyone is doing so good this week. Congrats to all who have lost and stick with it for those who have stayed the same or gained a little. We still have some more weeks left to do good.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

hello....I forgot about checking in today. I'm down 1/2 an inch on my hips.

Everyone seems to be doing really well this week! Congrats on staying on-plan.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

Down 1 pound. I'd have prefered 10, but I'll take it.

Chicklady, you crack me up!!

Well done all the losers!

Thanks Hopejoy - I took the new pic last night, wanted to see a comparison with how I was at the start 'cos I was losing it a bit and feeling very fat and miserable. I've no decent clothes at the moment - everything is either too big or too small, and I don't really want to buy anything much as I don't want to fit anything that fits me now for very long. I look gross in the too small clothes and like a bag lady in the too big clothes. Needed to see that it IS working and change IS happening!

Ouch, I'm sorry about your back. The brand of Melatonin I buy is Sundown. I buy it at Kroger and I must admit it's the first brand that actually knocks me out. I hope you get better soon.

Re: *~A New Year, A New You~*

A REALLY long day for me today, had a dinner lecture after work. Weight was 192.5 this AM so I am down 1.5 for the week. Glad to see all the losers on here.
