Pamela and Cat - FANTASTIC changes in your pictures, you both look so much smaller!!

You too Emma, I agree with Cat about your back being especially impressive, but your tummy is kind of moving to the centre in preparation for disappearing I think!

Chicklady, I know what you mean about loving to "have to" put on a belt - it's a wonderous thing when previous too small jeans now need help to stay up, so well done!!

I'm down 2lbs this week, which makes me 203/183/182, so I've missed my goal by ONE lousy pound!!

Oh well, it's still 20lbs gone, which is a BIG success no matter how you look at it. Funny thing is I first said at the start of the challenge that my goal was 20lb, then upped it by one cos that took me to my next minigoal and a round 13 stone - stones are important in this part of the world!!

I haven't had time to measure yet or take pics - it's a bit mad around here to-day - but will do and will update.

Thanks Emma for, as always, running a brilliant challenge, you're a star!

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

Thanks Cat, Kate and Emma !!

Roz, I can see a major change in your pics--12 inches gone is great!!

Chicklady, 19 pounds and 8.5 inches IS TOO impressive. In future challenges I plan to measure neck, wrist, ankle, knee, toes etc. cause the more places you measure the more inches show up

Kate, just casually rest your hand somewhere while weighing to get that last pound off You have done great!!

Don, hope you wife only shoots your picture

I have really enjoyed this challenge with all of you!!

Wow everyone has done sooo good!!! Well done!!!

I was 164lbs so still a bit away from my initial target, but I'm still thrilled with the 11lbs loss!! I'll do measuring and photos tonight, I dont think you'll see much of a difference, but I'll give it a whirl!!
