Biggest Loser 4 Week 16 This is it!!

[lisaviolet]

I am also proud that I did not quit when things weren't going as well as I would have liked.

You should be proud Dona. I think that is one of the biggest hurdles for weight loss. You know how I struggle with it.

WOW!!! I just "did the math" and my 30.6 pounds is equal to 11% of my body weight! Not too shabby for under 4 months.

Hey Wendy! It's on!!!!!!!!!! We are neck and neck Ms. 11%. I'm guessing 4/5 or 5/4 for the final tally.

I'm smelling a competitive girl.

 

[lisaviolet]

I am just as successful and I am so very proud this has been one of the hardest things I have ever done..

Yeah! Much better.

WDW is in 2 days

Have a wonderful time Michelle.

OK, I'm lost. What does that mean???

I'm being competitive with you!!!! You said you can't wait to see the final tally. You're teasing Brenda about "killing you" with the suspense. So I'm just adding more anticipation for you. You're at 11% you said. I think I'm at 11%. I'm jazzing you that we are maybe jockeying for #4, #5, #6 for the final round up????

[EDIT: Oops read your post too quickly. The 4/5 5/4 was talking about us jockeying for maybe 4 or 5.]



Everyone, I know we are all winners for sure. Just a teasin' and being a tad competitive.

You crack me up, Lisa!

Listen missy! Don't get me started with you. Speaking of neck and neck most times. Out of sheer vanity I actually am very curious if you've whipped my #$@ once again? You have, haven't you Tia?

I know, I know. I'm the only competitive girl?!?!? Uh huh.

If I'm calculating right (and I didn't trying to anticipate the show last night) I'm down about 12%.

ETA: But it's funny competitive so I'm all for it.

We are!! Congrats on your excellent losses Michelle!!

I've lost 50 since I started the first BL in September. It feels good when people I haven't seen in a while do a double take. I've recently started shopping in my closet for old blue jeans that haven't fit since the turn of the century.

LOL...I finally got rid of my bigger size to a women's shelter and am finding the new pants I bought, even when I dry them, never feel tight. I was smart this time and already bought the next size down. They wash well, wear well, and are only sold in the spring ! I can't wait to shop for jeans in my closet. I have a pair of size 16 from 1990 that are the equivalent of a size 10 now. I went out and bought a pair to check (then I returned them ) You are awesome!

So far our Biggest Loser is way out in front. Then there are several followers and right now there are THREE losers at 11%.

The competition is fierce but remember we are all WINNERS.

Stay tuned.

I am still waiting for my Wednesday weigh ins. PM me RIGHT NOW!

Does she have two J sons? Just askin'. Hmmm.

Ooooh, exciting! Does this mean I actually calculated correctly? The anticipation of it all.

Stay tuned.

Oh Brenda, such a tease.


Lord knows what I'm going to do with my time after this!!!! Oh well, there's always Wendy's blog.

 

[lisaviolet]

I can't wait to shop for jeans in my closet.

Too funny. I just did that the other day. I thought, "Wait. Didn't I save that one never really fitting properly button front pair?". "They were so ahead of their time. And weren't they low rise when low rise wasn't the thing?". I was so excited. Yep, they were saved. And they fit. Oh boy did they fit!!!

Who knew 90s low rise could be so incredibly strange looking?

No more shopping in my closet.

 

[mikamah]

Oh my god, you guys are too funny. I'm gonna have to keep checking in now and see who beats who. Will it be Lisa? Will it be Wendy? This is as suspenseful as the biggest loser last night on tv.

I'm only around around 3-4%, but happy I finished with a loss.

You are doing great too!!

I have to get rid of my big stuff. It's just taking up room in my closet and keeping me from reaching the smaller clothes in the back.

Lane Bryant by me has a bunch of clearance stuff for $6.99 so I bought a couple of pairs of black dress pants in a 16. 1 pair is a little too tight but should fit nicely in a couple of weeks. The other pair I bought I am wearing today but they are definitely a stretchier material.

I also scored some nice $6.99 tops for work. My best score though was a top that I am wearing today that was $3.00. It is a bit big but it is from Dots and their stuff always shrinks up on me.

OK, NOW I get it!!! Hmm, could be. I would hope to see us in the top 10, anyway...

Yep, y'all just read my blog and laugh your heads off at the chaos that is my life. My daughter lives in an alternate universe, my son is a terrorist, my dog an escape artist, but I'm still losing weight!!

Yeah, RIGHT NOW!!! Come on, Wednesday people!!!

Brenda, you've now moved from cruel to inhuman!!!! I may die from the suspense!!!


Well, MY big news today is that I once again went shopping in my closet, and found many things that fit, many that are close, and many many many that are way too big!! I'm amazed at some of the stuff I saved in smaller sizes--stuff I wouldn't wear again if my only other choice was to go naked! I was even able to get my body into the size 12/14 Laura Ashley charcoal grey wool suit that is my "someday" dream suit--I LOVE that suit and will be so thrilled to be able to wear it again! Well, it is nowhere close to fitting, but I was able to get it on, my arms fit in it. It's about 4 inches from closing, but that will come. In any event, I should be pretty well covered for dressy stuff for our vacations this summer--now I just need all the casual stuff. Because, you know, the things in my closet that will fit me are just, you know, OLD! And since I've lost all this weight, I think I DESERVE new clothes, right? Gee, am I good at this rationalizing or WHAT?!?

I can't wait to see a 20 again and looking forward to a 16...I think I am going to have to be a toothpick to ever fit in those size 16 Lee jeans, I figured it out they are not from 1990--try circa 1985 !Them babies are Mom jeans, lol! Get rid of them big clothes...you can give them to a women's shelter and they will appreciate them. You will make room for your "new" clothes too! Have a great day.

Wouldn't I look like a ding dong if we weren't. Oh well. Fun day on the DIS regardless!!
