Time for another round. Who's in??

Guidelines:
Use the start-weight from the day when you join this challenge.
Start at 5.0 lbs to go.
Update your weight as often as you like.
Whoever loses 5 lbs first wins..
There can be more than one winner.

Name.......Start........Current.....Goal.......lbs to go

lowjax.......234............234.........229........5.0

Going to try it without the Rank and see if people are OK with that. I had a request for that. We will still do everything the same, we just won't move our names around. The first one to 0 will still win and start the next thread.

I’ll add this then, if you don’t mind Lowjax....the last winner!
Also changed your pounds to go to five from zero.

The way the challenge works....

Thanks ScotiaGirl. I think I was so excited yesterday that I forgot to add the rules and update my lbs to go. Dang. I'll edit the original post so people can see.

I’ve been doing some real reevaluating and changing my eating patterns and habits, so I’m going to count that 2/10s of a pound down as a positive reinforcer. I enjoyed what I ate at my Christmas brunch and my boxing day turkey dinner, and still lost a smidge.

Wow, got a surprising whoosh this morning. I was feeling thin last night (my pants were falling down ) but didn't think it would be this much of a drop. This just validates my drive to stay on track over the holidays. I'm so happy I didn't have a single bite of junk food and just "enjoy the day". I am enjoying this drop in weight far more than I would have enjoyed a cookie.
