Congratulations to everyone who won! I didn't make it this time but I know I lost more than I would have if I hadn't done the bet. I'm taking the L and learning from my mistakes. I'm hoping to start another bet next week.

Sigh, just need to commiserate with someone. I've lost 35 pounds over the last few months. Hard-earned, and I have lost inches and look better (being tall hides things). I decided to check a waist measurement today, expecting to see 32-33 inches. Ya all, it was 37! Still an unhealthy number. When I had my head in the sand, ignoring just how much I had gained, that waist measurement must have reached the 40s. No wonder I'm still fighting hypertension. That was a wake-up call, and I am now even more motivated to work hard to get my waist measurement back into healthy numbers. Still, a bit depressing to realize how much more I need to do. Back a million years ago, I was the skinny one, the one who never gained weight. This is just revolting. Sigh. Ok, just needed to share, I don't have anyone in real life on this journey with me.

Breast feeding and Been pigging out on junk and putting on weight week after week. I know eating well balanced meals will not only help me with some weight loss but also will help me feel less sluggish. I have been trying but I keep going back to unhealthy ways so hoping this challenge will
Encourage me to stick to it
