Weight Loss Update

Well, the weight loss challenge is over at work and I just barely won. I lost 7 and another lady lost 6. There were only 3 of us in it this time. I have a feeling that it may be our last challenge for awhile. The sad thing is, I think I lost those 7 pounds for a second time, not really new weight. So I'm still stuck around a 48 pound total loss since January. I know some of this is the choices I have made to "enjoy" a few weekends (such as this past one). I have been getting more comments about the loss lately which is nice, but also strange since I'm not down that much for the past couple of weeks.

We are going out for Chinese tonight for Matthew's birthday. That scares me. I will eat very minimally today and then I am going to try to just have one plate and skip the rice. I will eat some crab rangoons because those are my favorite.

Girlfriend, do you ever sleep???? You commented on Sonya's blog at 3:58 am and posted this at 4:41 am Why aren't you sleeping??

i bet you would lose more if you would sleep more.

How much money did you win?

you do look great

it was just like that for me when I lost my 88 lbs. people didn't notice at all for the first 50. it was a little discouraging. The last few, they finally did.

You know I think you look beautiful!

My first date w/ Michigan Steve was on VD day. We went for Chinese, had crab rangoons, he got sick and had vomitting and diarhea for the rest of the night. Just thought you'd be interested in that tidbit from my life!
