  • Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

    OPA! Happy Birthday Norah!

    Have you all noticed that many of our friends here have dropped out of sight. The challenges are looking pretty empty these days. I want to congragulate all of you that are still here and staying true to the Atkins WOE. I think the Holidays are a greater challenge than anticipated.
    My neighbor came over today with a plate of Holiday cookies which my kids happily danced as they carried them into the Kitchen. My hard boiled egg didnt feel quite a s satisfying <<sigh>> I held strong!

          Thanx, Razzle and Rose! Hi, Liss and Sookie!

          Yeah, the "oomph" in the Challenges seems to be dwindling .. probably 'cos its the end of the year and everyone is maybe a little burnt out and then there is the temptation of all those holiday goodies. Anyone who can face down a plate of Christmas cookies in favor of a hard-boiled egg, is aces with me!

          I think in January, there will be a renewed burst of enthusiasm, it being the start of a new year and all !

            So, here it is, the start of a new week and I take it we're supposed to check in with our progress with this Challenge, it being the 15th and all?

            I haven't lost any more weight since my whoosy last week, but that's okay ... I'm two pounds from my end-of-the-year goal of 10 lbs.; and after that, I'll have 11 lbs. to go until my ultimate goal of 140. When they say your losses slow as you inch closer to your goal weight, they ain't lyin'! Maybe I'll add some extra walking, to speed up the old metab

            To all those who did lose this week, I salute you!

              Well this is the final check in before our goals. So I'm still at 278 pounds, which is 2 additional pounds lost than my revised New Years Goal. And I'm okay with that. I didn't eat veggies yesterday (or the day before) so I'm really not supprised that I didn't move at all. I'm still in the 270's and I'm very happy about that. I had my son take some pictures of me today, but they didn't turn out real well. So I'm just going to post my New Years photos.

              So for all you people who said that you wouldn't do something until **** froze over....well guess what? It's snowing in Vegas! And it is suppose to for the next 3 days!!!! It's not really sticking to the ground much before melting, but it's sticking to some things. It is really neat when we do get snow here. It never lasts long and never ever ever snows three days in a row...so I'll let you know hehe. I took a picture of the snow, and I'll see if I can post it in one of my albums =)

              So where is our New Years Challenge Leader? I hope she's alright.

              Hugs all

                      Oh WOE is me and I still gained weight this week!
                      I am up from 221 to 224 but I know its water weight because my rings are tighter today than yesterday. I had wings with blue cheese dressing 2 days a go and I think they are playing havoc on me.
                      Well....time to get moving again. I am sure the water weight will shed..so sure I am not changing my numbers in my signature!

                          Nice thing about water weight, Razzle ... eventually it just flushes away!

                          SNOW, Liss? In Vegas! Then again, I've been to Vegas in the winter and man, it was really cold! But I had to go to Ely to see actual snow You gonna have a White Christmas, then? That would be cool. COOL! Ha ha ... weather humor. OK, I'll stop now!

                            Oh yeah, Vegas gets cold during the winter. And I'm sure it would snow here more if it ever rained here, lol. We don't get much rain.

                            My kids had a great time playing in the snow today. I currently have two snowmen in the backyard!

                            And LOL to your joke Norah! =)

                              you already have one album so you can either upload in it or choose the option 'add album'.
                              if you upload into the same album you already have, you should open the album, choose 'upload pictures', click 'browse' and then click on the picture on you computer that you want. then choose 'upload pictues'. another page appears and you click 'save changes'. that should upload your pictures and they will be ready for use.
                              since you have already done this before, is it possible that the pics are too big?

                                It doesn't even give me the option of uploading photos. I'll try using my laptop to upload the photos later. That is how I did it before. Thank you for your help.
