THE RACE ON THE LOOSE CABOOSE

[Sneaky Snoopy]

Way to go Gwenn - With your five pounds our train has traveled thru: Comfort, Fredericksberg, Roosevelt, Sonora and Ozona.  Two ville is just around the bend.

[patns]

Anyway you look at it to swoop down into Montana and pick me up is going to be quite a trip!

Well, I can add to the trip. But with some big loses we can do it. I am in Edmonton Alberta. It is 5 hrs straight north from the Montana border.

Tomorrow when I check in with my weight I'll fill you in on a unique attraction here.

I don't remember the exact cutoff date for the caboose, CAN SOMEBODY TELL ME?  I remember the ending date was set to enable Snoopy to tabulate the results and still allow time to pack for Key West.  I went through this entire thread & didn't spot it. 

I just counted the weeks until the Key West convention (again - I saw where Snoopy counted 81 at the beginning).  It is 80 weeks from now until the end of October, 2012.  If I average two pounds a week, I can be at my high goal of 160 lbs. in 75 weeks, or Sept. 25.  WOOHOO !!!  I never thought of myself as being one of the ones who would be at goal by then, but I just realized I can do it !!! The high range on Weight Watchers height/weight chart for my height (5'5" - 5'6") is 150 to 155 lbs.  So I can easily be at that weight by the convention cutoff ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !  After that, (or even before)  it's up to the Lord how low He wants me to go.  

With respect to our race official, Madame Snoopy:

My nicknames generally are spelled with two "N"s but the name I go by is spelled with one "N"  :)

Second, I believe the term coined for those in the 200's is "TWOTERVILLE"



You are doing a fantastic job keeping us all in line.  THANK YOU SNOOPY!

Monday weigh-in: 198.8 I believe that is down 1 pound. I am going to weigh at work because surprisingly hospital scales even with clothes on have been weighing 1-2 pounds less than my home scales. I will take a loss even if a small one.

[Wolfmother]

Monday weigh-in.  Down one pound to 238.  Slow and steady wins this race 

[Deborah D.]

OK Monday weigh-in for me was 230, which is a gain of about 4 lbs.....well that ok I did fall off the train again this weekend, and ate things I should not have....but I am back on again today and will stay on as long as I can without falling off.  I have to stay on and get under the 200 lbs mark...just to show my DH that I can do it on LDL....

Two, Four, Six, Eight,
Let's Do Lunch is really great. 
Eating lots of healthy beans,
Fitting better in our jeans! 
Veggies, fruit and lean meat too
Helps the train a chug -- Choo, choo! 



Go, Team Go!
Congratulations for the weight loss!
For those of you who gained a few, stay focused and better luck next week!  You can do it! 

[dinker]

Sorry so late.....Monday weigh in at 171.  That is no change for me but I'm happy because at one point during the week I was at 173.  I got through all that depression eating and the funerals.  Sunday I cooked several meals for this week.  I am ready ready.....bought a new car on Saturday to go with the journey ha ha
I live in Sebring Florida and we are right smack in the middle of Florida.  We are knows for the 12 hours of Sebring race. 

The caboose is going.....congratulations to the looser and hang in there to the weight increasers.  For those of you like me who stayed the same....we'll get them next week.

Thanks to everyone who gave me words of encouragement both at the loss of my two friends and my struggle with eating.  You guys all rock!

[barrypaxton]

I weighed in at 5 AM this morning, then left for Columbus for more testing for Ron.

I am down 1 lb. to 175.  I am wearing a top today that I could not wear during the summer of 2009 or 2008. WOOOOOHOOOOO!! or was that supposed to be CHOOOOOOOOOCHOOOOOOOOOOOO????

Take care,
Ollie

Sneaky Snoopy.. do you have a TOTAL weight loss for us this week?  Just curious.
Thanks, Kathie in Fl.

[Sneaky Snoopy]

Kathie - we had two with big loss and a lot of one's and two's for a total of 17 pounds.  We will move our train one city per pound.  We are headed west to see the Pacific Ocean.
