My weigh in was better than expected...even though I only lost .4 lbs. I thought I was going to gain since I had a bad beginning of the week.

This week, I will not be able to weigh in as I am at my grandmothers in Michigan (I live in Calif.) So, I hope to report back in 2 weeks with a loss : )

Great job all!

Oh, so long! My husband went on Pac in February and will be back next month, the 15th. Beyond excited, it was our first married! I don't know if you've been through this before but my prayers are with you to hang in there, I know the last 6 months have not been pleasant.

Well, not as much as I'd hoped, but I'm down one pound! Better than the gain last week! Good job this week everyone, and good luck next week!
