You know the drill.
I'll be back when it's actual morning and not fake morning (12:14 am) to post my weight.
Do check out the previous post. The blog I linked to is hilarious.

Sara and Holly
Do not eat.
Posts
Sara and Holly
Welcome friends, family, fellow-dieters, and weirdos of the internet! This is our blog. We are Holly and Sara, best friends who’ve shared many things over the years, including a love of cake and a desire to be thin & healthy. Right now you are wondering if we realize that those two things might be mutually exclusive. We do realize this and we choose to ignore it, (as we will ignore you if you continue with the alarming and hurtful observations.) We have both dabbled in thinness before and have found it to be most pleasant—almost as pleasant as cake. This blog will be devoted, for the most part, to the pursuit of achieving and maintaining thinness (and good health—of course good health) forevermore. We may throw in a few tidbits about our families (they are thin AND healthy), cake, things that stick in our craws, cake, stuff we want to buy, cake, and profound observations about the world (and cake). Feel free to read, learn, and post your intelligent, helpful, non-threatening comments.

197.4 I think that's down.
Things I did right this week, 4 workout classes. Took cardio kickboxing last night and thought it would kill me.
I also added weight training to my rountine, and I actually followed through with it, I never do that!
217.5 I'm moving in the right direction again.
Ugh, Friday again..heh, that is the first time I have dreaded Friday. I am at 175.
My new training program is really kicking my behind. I thought I was going to pass out last night. That is how you know it was a good session.
139 -- down 1.4 pounds from my beginning weight. FINALLY! :)
I'm STILL the same. This is killing me!! UGH!! DAM desserts! 200
I'm going the wrong way! I'm now at 182. But still have lost 4.5 total!
No way no how am I getting on a scale right now. I just spent all day in the car after spending 3 days on a trip with the fam after spending 30 hours traveling (14 in the air, 16 in airports waiting for either a flight or baggage that never showed). Good times. I'll weigh in tomorrow, even though I'm sure it still won't be pretty.
187. Down 3 (or 3.5?) from last week. I can't remember my original starting weight. I'm still close to it, though.
Where's my winning spirit?
Woo! Turns out I'm down 2 pounds from day 1 of the contest. Must be all that whining I'm doing.
115!
178 - down 2 total
Even without much loss, I feel a lot better when I exercise, which I'm consistently doing 5 or so times/week
153.8. That's down 3.2 pounds from the start of the contest. Woo Hoo!!
Down a total of 6 pounds! Sure helped to get home and start pooping again.
Watch out fellow competitors! I just may break out all the stops and shave my legs before the final weigh in!
167 - Still the same...but down 1 (I think) from the start.
150.0 - That's right, I'm .5 lbs. OVER my starting weight. Ack!!
Oh well, I'm doing better now and expect an actual LOSS next week. :)
139.0 - and No, I'm not lying!! I finally started Weight Watchers with the New Year, and amazingly, I've stuck to it! I finally got out of the 140's... whew, that was depressing for awhile there.
~ Patty W.
Down .5
:D
I'm up 1 stinking lb. I don't wanna talk about it.
151, that's up 2 from my starting weight, but down from last week.
What I did right? Went back to journaling my food. Oh, yeah, that really works.
146
152.8, which puts me...right back where I started.
Maybe if I actually try to lose weight this week, I might be more successful.
185.
I think there is another reason that I'm gaining weight and I don't think it has to do with my careful eating. If I'm right, we're in for a BIG surprise this fall....
I am down 1.9 this week, bringing my total since the contest began to 7.4!
I have been dieting since Halloween and I have lost 18, I so want to break 20 this week!
Wow, Jess B.! Congratulations?!?!
199 again. I have recorded every bite in the last two weeks and went to the gym 4 times this week.
ALW
155. Officially, from the doctor's office. I hate her scale.
I guess that I will come clean with my weigh in of 295...darn GI virus, why couldn't you have suck around for another week or two?!?
Posting late, but at 180. Maybe by the end of the week I will at least have lost a little from where I started!! Better than gaining at the holidays though!
I finally weighed and am going to be consistent (no matter how much I've slacked off!) 158. 2 pounds lost in 36 days. woopee
