Happy New Year !! ... Let the games begin ... The race is on to see who can lose the most between now and St. Patty’s Day ... I suspect we will fall back to what we always did, losing a little, gaining a little and staying the same ... As long as we don’t give up we will make headway ... wishing all a Healthy, Happy New Year !!!

My starting weight for the New Year's to St. Pat's Day dash . . . 157, a gain of two pounds, over two weeks.
I will post a loss next week.

 

[Superbob]

Superbob weighs 467 pounds -- steel weight, unconverted to MMW (Mere Mortal Weight).

Lardy, Mr. Chimp, this is New Year's Eve. Family is gathering for an eat-a-thon this evening. Then there are about 45 bowl games to watch (most important being the Vols' game tonight, ah yes the Chick-fil-A Bowl). Last night, family dined at P. F. Changs and night before at Outback -- using gift cards Santy Claus brought.

Okay, Superbob will weigh Saturday morning and do MMW conversion to survey the damage done, assess 2009 progress (if any), and set a baseline for the great race to green beer day.

Lots of eating will be done on this end tonight as well, then the brakes are back on ...

No PJ ... swear ... You know you will post a loss next week ...

Yep, I threw the last slice of cake away this morning so I wouldn't be tempted to eat any. . . . steely resolve in action.

I'm going to post my weight for this week. I weighed early at WW since we're going to a New Year's Day brunch with our Sunday School class this morning.

As of Wednesday morning, I gained .4 pounds since the previous weigh-in.

Starting Weight: 194.2
Last Weigh-in: 185.2
This Week: 185.6
Total Loss: 8.4

I will take that as a victory, especially since I thought I'd gained a couple pounds last week. So, I'm actually down about 2 pounds since Thanksgiving, which was my goal this year to be down at least a little bit.

I will let Cindy decide if she's posting her weight later. I know what it is, but I'm not overstepping my bounds!

Happy New Year! Good luck with the New Year to St. Patty's Challenge. It look's like Superbob has the most to lose.

Good Job Wise ... Happy New Year

 

[Superbob]

Good gravy, The Man of Steel has gained 3 pounds this week! And these are not steel pounds.

Okay, at least Superbob has a baseline now for trimming between now and St. Patrick's Day.

As for his 2009, he fell 7 pounds short of his weight-loss goal for the year, because of a late-year binge of eating rich food. But this is a New Year. Will try short-term goals like the Great Saint Paddy's Day race. Then maybe one to the Fourth of July, etc.

The holiday feeding frenzy has finally stopped. I used the last of the eggnog to make french toast this morning. If you've never tried it, I would recommend it. You don't have to add anything to the mixture. Spray the skillet and just grill slowly. It takes longer than regular french toast but you don't have to add butter or syrup at the end, just sprinkle with a little powdered sugar and cinnamon.

I'm ready now to begin the St. Patricks's day challenge.
It is still on, isn't it?

Good going Wise!
Cooker! Amazing!
Mary, Superbob, we ALL will post a loss this week!



New Year so a new beginning:

Starting weight 185

All who wander ... find food

Happy New Year to Everyone

Wow 6 lbs in one week I am impressed
with 11 week to go you are on target for a St Patrick's Day weigh in of 126 lbs
The last time I was that weight was 40 years ago
Here is my feeble effort
Starting weight 190.3
Last week 192.3
This week 189.4
Just one question Chimp
Did you shave before weigh in as I noticed you are (or were) quite hairy

 

[Superbob]

That's an impressive start, Art. I hope to have some progress to show this Friday, too.

As for the Chimp's shedding of hair, I think you may have hit upon one of his secrets.

Well, we have started a ThrowDown at work ... I have been perfect during the day and feasting on Moon Pies and chocolate bars at night ... the only habit I don't have is self control
