<b>mowsie dreamer</b> WOO HOO!! Good for you! Not only another pound lighter but you have earned yourself one of those pretty gold clippies. Are you smiling and feeling proud of yourself? You have made <i>me</i> smile and I'm always proud of you.
Keep this up and you will be at goal before you know it.
<b>Baileymouse</b> Some weeks are like that, cutie. Do not despair, the pounds will disappear it is just taking a little longer than you like. I hope you have measured yourself, our measurements are an even better indicator of our success than the scale.
Hang in there. I'll bet you see a loss by next weigh in. {{{HUGS}}}
<b>NancyK</b> I told you! I knew you would get rid of that fluid you brought back with you from WDW. You're back on track, now and newly focused on your goal. You're going to be showing a loss next week, I'm sure of it.
Be proud of yourself. You have a wonderful determination and that is very motivating for us all. I'm proud <i>of</i> you.
<b>Claire4dpins</b> Look at you! You've crossed the onederland barrier, earned a new clipart <i>and</i> lost another pound since then. What a great success you are, I'm so happy and proud for you.
<b>wdwnutze </b> WOW! You lost two more inches? EXCELLENT! Losing 1.5 pounds is pretty awesome, too, but I'm more impressed that you are 2 inches smaller. Way to go!
You are doing great with this. Isn't it wonderful to see your clothing getting larger and getting so many wonderful compliments? I'm very proud of you, be proud of <i>yourself</i>!
<b>lmhall2000</b> WOO HOO!!! Look at you go! You are doing great, sweetie. Another two pounds gone forever and you've earned a new clipart. Good job!
You still have time to lose that last 5 pounds but even if you don't you are going to be looking so good for your dream vacation. Keep it up, cutie, I'm so proud of you.
<b>ead79</b> You lost .4 pounds even though the BF has visited you? That is awesome, it probably means that you actually lost a pound or two. You'll have to wait until that fluid is all gone before you find out. Be sure and let us know.
I like your positive attitude. It is going to help you reach your goal. Be proud of yourself, we are all proud <i>of</i> you!
<b>scarlett873 </b> You splurged and still maintained your weight? Good job! Luckily you only have one birthday a year so you won't be doing that again for a while.
You're doing great. You must have subconsciously controlled your birthday splurge portions to maintain your weight. I'm proud of you--be proud of <i>yourself</i>!
<b>Beanie</b> If it is TOM and you only gained one pound, you are doing great. In fact, I'll bet you actually lost a few pounds. Wait until the fluid is gone and you will see.
I'm proud of you for hanging in there and not quitting even though you saw a gain on the scale this week. Thanks for checking in here, too. I know it isn't that much fun to post to check in when you are showing a gain. {{{HUGS}}}
<b>jenanderson</b> What an excellent attitude you have! That positive attitude is going to help you reach your goal, sweetie. Losing 2.5 pounds two weeks is awesome progress. You are doing a great job and I'm proud of you.
<b>Lisa96</b> So you lost an average of one pound a week. That is excellent. It's a wonderful feeling to see a 3 pound loss reflected on the scale. Aren't you glad you didn't quit? You are doing a great job. I hope you are feeling proud of yourself. You are determined and motivated and I'm sure proud <i>of</i> you!
<b>disnygoof</b> I love your enthusiasm. Losing one pound in one week is excellent progress!
Congratulations on winning those Cirque tickets. I love Cirque du Soleil, I never seem to win anything, though
How wonderful that you have lost a total of 50 pounds. What a shining example of success you are for me. I'm really proud of you.
<b>mishoe01</b> You are "tons of stuff" and only gained 1/2 pound? WOW, you must not eaten nearly as much as you thought you did. I'll bet that 1/2 pound is simply fluid being retained because of the off plan foods you ate. It will be gone soon and will take a pound of fat with it, too.
Hang in there, you are newly determined and back on track now.
<b>ohMom </b> Maintaining is good, Molli. So much better than gaining. Sounds like you are newly determined and I'll bet you show a loss next check in. You are so close to goal, though, be prepared to lose this last few pounds very slowly.
Thanks for posting here this week, even though you couldn't report a loss.
<b>AprilN</b> You could also have gained a little muscle, don't you think? You sure did exercise a lot and I think that's probably what happened. You gained a pound, sure, but I'll bet you didn't gain a pound of fat.
Thanks for posting here today. I can tell you aren't feeling very happy. {{{HUGS}}} sweetie. Have you measured yourself, yet? You could have lost inches instead of pounds, you know.
I'm proud of you for being so good and on plan while on vacation, way to go! You did <i>not</i> see a negative result, if you built muscle you saw a <i>positive</i> result and I happen to think that's pretty great.
<i>Thanks to everyone who posted to this weeks check in thread. Reading this helps keep me motivated</i>.
Onward and downward!

I have to be very good this week to fit into my party dress for Saturday. I know I'll cheat a bit since it's my birthday/graduation party but since we're having lots of Atkins friendly food I won't stray too much (but I must have cake & ice cream!) The good thing is that I'm so unused to sugar now that most things taste TOO sweet, so I don't have to eat much to feel like I had a treat.
I seem to have been losing at 1 lb/wk lately. So I've now lost 30 lbs total & 24 lbs since starting WISH! One more to go so I can earn that 25 lb clippie, and I do want to do that before we go to Vegas next week.
I definetly thought I would have a gain because of all the long-weekend parties I went to
