99 !

I went by the weightloss center this morning because
I knew I would be running late for class this afternoon
and I lost 2.8 pounds this week. That brings my over
all total to 99 pounds since Feb. 27th. Just one more
pound before New Years Day! I think I can, I think
I can, I think I can. That will be my motto for the
next week and a half.

I will not be blogging next week at all because I will
be out of town with family for the holidays. So, this
is my last official weightloss center weigh in for the
2007 calendar year. My next weigh in will be on
Thursday, January 3, 2008. I will try to remember
to let you know before New Years Day if I loose my
other pound.

2007 has been an awesome year for me and you all
have been a significate part of my journey. I will
never be able to express how much you support and
encouragement has meet to me. Please continue, as
I have about 65 more pounds I would like to loose in 2008.

Until then...Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Much Better Week !!!

This was a much better week for weight loss. I weighed

in 3.7 pounds lighter than last week. I hope this is the

trend for several more weeks in a row. I now need to

loose 3.8 more before New Years to meet my 100 pound

goal. Only 14 more pounds to win the wager between

Brad and myself.

I sometime wish I could use Garfield's weigh in tactics,

but I can't, so I need your prayers and continued support

for about 65 more pounds. Then I will need your support

in a totally different way, but we will talk about that then.

Thanks for sticking with me.

Disappointing Week

You guessed it, I gained this week. But, I know
I lost some inches, because I can tell in my
clothes. I gained 1.5 this week, and don't know
why. Oh well, I have been here before and I
know if I just keep on keeping on it will come
off.
For some more exciting news-- I finished my
first 5K last Saturday. My friends from house
church and I participated in the 5K - Marathon
for St. Jude in Memphis. Some of them ran it,
but for this first one I walked it with Polly and
Stephanie. We did really well I thought. We
finished in 51 minutes and 42 seconds. That
is one mile in just over 16 minutes. It was a lot
of fun and I would like to try to jog/run it next
year.
I am going to work really hard to get back on
the downward trend this week and would
appreciate your prayers and encouragement.
Thanks for all your support. It maybe starting
to get a little harder, so please stick with me.
