Sorry for the late post. I was testing my theory about being up on Friday and down on the weekend. I was right this week, I think it's just my muscles retaining water from exercise.

Anyway, I'm 137.6 - soooo close to my goal! And I'm 5'8". I'd like to get down to 130-135.

I have to say I'm really proud of myself for getting so close to goal, especially since I've been afraid to actually diet and haven't counted one single calorie this whole time. Exercise has been a huge factor and I've let myself follow my hunger and eaten whenever I felt I needed it. I've noticed great changes in my body, much more muscle tone and I've lost a little over an inch off my hips and waist each. My resting heart rate has also gone down from the high 70s to the low 60s.

Thanks for this challenge! I'm definitely going to stick with it over the holidays and I hope to just maintain. And great job to everyone who stuck with the challenge. And if you didn't reach your goal, don't worry, it took me 2 or 3 challenges I think and a break from a couple of the challenges to even start losing and finding the right balance for my body.
