Well, I know I didn't make it - will weigh tomorrow but I know I'm still up from the holidays. Now that I'm walking again hopefully it will come off.

I think this was probably one of the toughest times for a challenge. Maybe a Valentines Day challenge would work better. Everyone can work on the holiday weight. If no one starts one perhaps I will, it's not very long before we get to -day. Don't know if I want to be the challenge queen though. We'll see what happens next week.

I finished up this challenge on a high note. 363 to 340 for the New Year Challenge. Now I hope to be 325 for Valentines Day.

I'll post all updates Sunday.

Noel, you did great on the New Years challenge! In fact, even those who didn't reach their goal, but lost weight did good. This time of year, most people gain weight. The challenge was an excellent idea to keep everyone on track...or at least moving in the right direction.

Hey all,
Happy New Year and Happy 2005. I did hit my mini goal of 210 over the holidays! I was so upset I was traveling and could not sign on to tell! Now onto the next challenge in 2005! Hope everyone had a great holiday!

Well I didn't get to goal, but I did end out the year 14 lbs down(after gaining back from hit 195). Not bad at all. I'm 41 lbs lighter than what I was last New Year's so I'm happy with that!

NEXT GOAL WEIGHT

I feel satisfied with the way I came through... weight was only up half a pound... I just wanted to hold, so i am very happy.
