I have a total of 18 gone. Only 22, (preferably 32 but then I would just look sickly), more to go. I have set no time frame cause when it didn't happen, I would get discouraged and quit. Having a no end specified leaves me some room to breathe and still sit here feeling good about what I have done so far.

NancyC, a plateau, don't you hate it! I have been there and it is very discouraging. You are correct though, stick with it and you will once again see the scale go down and clothes get baggier.
Kudos to you for exercising. I am such a couch potato. I know I have to mend my ways but I'm procrastinating.
Yup, keep the positive self-dialog going and you will succeed!!

Another 1.2 loss, for a total of 17.4! It is going to be tough but sugar plums, holiday nog, candy and decorated cookies will not keep me from reaching my 20 pound loss in 2005.

NancyC keep up the great work. I'm sure you have been told this before, but since you have increased your workouts and are seeing a change in the way your clothes fit, you are on the right track. Don't always count on the scale to validate your hard work, muscle weighs more than fat, you are probably seeing the results in the extra workouts in how your clothes are fitting, not on the scale. Good job!!

txbkr, you are more than on the right track! With 21 down, would have to say you are one of the biggest losers on this thread!! I have a ways to go too but remember, we are ahead of everyone that starts after the New Year.

As of Thursday night's weigh-in I am down 15.8 pounds. It is good to see everyone else doing so well! As Suzie did, I set a goal of 20 lbs for 2005.

It is $12.95 per week. I don't know what the registration fee is, if there is one in your area. When I joined, the registration fee was free for that month.

I just stumbled on this thread..I love the support everyone is giving! I started on WW back in May and as of last night's weigh-in I was down by 22 lbs and half-way to my goal! I truly thought I'd gain because of 2 Christmas parties last week, but I kept up exercise, so that helped I guess. It's been very slow going for me, but I figure it will be easier to keep the weight off this way, so I'm fine with the length of time it's taking. This is the BEST weight-loss program!

Thank you both for your input! How much does it cost a week? I thought it was around $7.00.
Right now in my area they are selling the Winter Pass. It costs $153.00 but it makes the meeting fee $9.00 and lasts until the end of April.

Week 11 and my weight loss was 3.8 pounds, for a grand total of (drum roll please) 21.2!! I met my 2005 goal, hurrah! Thanks to all of you that have posted words of encouragement.  Last week was tough. Not only a lot of tempting holiday goodies all around but I was very busy and found time for planning healthy meals an even bigger challenge. The entire week I struggled with a major desire to eat! What is good about it all is that my recent success has strengthened my resolve to stick with healthy eating even doing the holidays and to continue to forgo Merlot, hot buttered rum, and eggnog! By the way, I have set a new goal; 10 pounds by Valentines Day --
