Karin's last week!

Hello Marsha and Laura, since you two seem to be the only ones left (with me) on this challenge!  I am really proud of both of you and you should definitely be super proud of yourselves for all you have accomplished!  My last week was a great one - in fact very similar to Marsha's in that I too lost 3 pounds!!  I was so excited to see that number on the scale.  I haven't met my goal either but I am starting to see a significant difference in the way I look and how my clothes fit.  I can even wear a pair of jeans I have not been able to wear for two years - and they fit better now than they did then.  My total for the week is 52 making my total 616.  Marsha it looks like we tied for the winner and I will bring you half the pot next week when I get back into town. 
This is the second time I have done this challenge and I must say it really helps me to stay on track because I have something and someone to be accountable to.  Even though we are done keep working hard and eating right.  You ladies are amazing and can accomplish anything if you keep on working at it.  It was a great challenge and I wish you both much success in the future!!

Nana's last two weeks

So it feels like things are really starting to come together!  I feel so much better on the inside~more energy.  My last two weeks have been good, I lost 3 inches making that week's total 564.  This last week was the most exciting for me though, I finally lost 3 more pounds.  Even though I did not reach my original weight loss goal I have the momentum going and plan on keeping up this challenge.  Last week's number  was 52 making a grand total of 616.  Thanks for this opportunity:)   Marsha

Laura's Last Week

Ok, here goes.  I lost 1 inch this week but gained 2 lbs??? So my 12th week total is 48.  Grand total of 599!!! I did not reach my goal but I am happier than when we started.  I lost a total of 4 lbs and 7 inches!  I have started a routine that I hope to add too and get my results over winter.  This was a kick start and I plan on continuing to watch my totals.

Thank you all for the challenge that I needed and good luck to all of you in the future.  Laura

Laura week 11

Did not lose weight but 1 inch this week.  Total for week 11 is 50 grand total of 551.  My goal was 7-10 pounds and I have done 6 - so I am going to continue after this challenge.  I have never really kept track of inches before but I have lost 6 inches!!! I am really going to try as it gets colder to have a routine and finish my goal, before swimsuit weather next  year.

weeks 10 and 11

Marsha I know how you feel about the no substantial weight loss, but I too continue to lose inches.  My body just doesn't like to drop the pounds.  That has been very frustrating this whole challenge, but I have consistently lost inches so that is a good thing.  I didn't post last week but points were 52 - 2 inches and 1 pound.  Points this week were 52 - 1.5 inches and 1 pound.  Total 564.  This is out last week ladies so keep going strong!  All of you who have stuck with it great job!  Even if you are not at your goal (like me) you have to be proud of what you have accomplished thus far and you are that much closer now to your goal then you were three months ago!  Saturday is the last day so work hard this week!  If every one has not posted their results by next Sunday night then the winner(s) will have to wait until the following weekend for results and bounty because I am going out of town on the 10th.
And, just because the challenge is ending doesn't mean we all have to go crazy and lose all the ground we have gained!  We are all amazing women and we can reach our goals - just keep working hard and don't give up!!!
