Wow!!!!!!!!! Carmen that's is wonderful. Keep going girl. You can do it. Just think of all the nice clothes you are going to get to fit into now. :up: :up: You need to stop trying so hard to lose and concentrate on just eating the right foods and it will come off. Some days I look at the scale three times and it makes me want to quit because it hasn't changed. Of course it's not going to change as long as I'm looking at it that closely. Relax and primp up and feel good and it will come off. Great going that's a lot of weight!!!!!!!!
I'm regressing back into my youth, I just have to figure out how I'm going to convience my body to come along with me.

I won the jackpot in our little dieting club at work. Out of 19 of us, I was the only one who made the goal so there was no drawing. (We all put in $10 when we started) They just presented it to me today. I'm happy that I won, but I felt kind of bad that nobody else qualified. :sad: My boss was just 4 pounds from goal. She told me I had to make something for her to make up for her not winning. :wink:

hey don't feel bad, BE PROUD girl, you had the motivation and the will power to stick with it, they are all just jealous, they all had the same opportunity you did, you just did it and they didn't, don't let their negative words or actions get you down, STICK WITH IT :up:

Bama...since you feel guilty for winning maybe you can treat everyone...buy a cheesecake and give it to all to share! :bg: (Oh...I am bad!!!!).

Congrats on your win! Keep it up!

Mmmmmmm cheesecake. It's been a long time. I guess I'll stick with my Jello cheesecake flavored sugar free pudding mix. It's close enough. :up:
It wouldn't matter if I did take the rest a cheesecake. They're all off the diet except the lady that started the whole thing, me, and my boss. She's really tried. :up: I am going to make something for her because we helped each other stick with it. :up: She just wasn't able to exercise like I do.

Carman, You amaze me. :up: YOU have will power. Keep it up. :up:
