    Your right about body composition...it is a bit weird. I also went from 20 also to a size 6 now. I weigh 145. The last time I weighed 145, I was in a size 12!

    Yep, it is funny. I'd rather be fat and fit any day than thin and out of shape.

    The year I got down to size 12 the changes were dramatic. I was training for my 2nd AIDS Lifecycle ride. I'd struggled on my first. Coach Spazzdog suggested I add weight training and intervals to the mix (who knew you need that to ride for a week? Everyone). The inches melted off. I was buying new jeans as fast as I could donate the old ones. My weight stayed the same.

    Now it's all for the knees, and health in general but especially my gimpy grumpy arthritic joints. In any shape or form they need the weight off.

    I'm in. I need accountability. I want to lose 10 lbs, to get down to 150 and stay there. I know I'm fit, but if I cut out the snacking and eating the boys' leftovers (I hate to see stuff go to waste!!!) I think it'll help. Time to start tracking my food/calories again on LoseIt on my iPhone.

    I'm in! My goal this time is 163. I can't remember the last time I weighed that. In fact, if I get down to that, I'm sure I'll have to buy all new clothes (darn ).

    I am in also. I would like to get to 145lbs but it is going to be tough I think. Thanks for starting the new challenge, Possegal!

    I'm in too... I broke my scale (accidentally kicked it and now it's cracked) so I have to get a new one by Friday. This is why I haven't weighed in the last week or so...

    Goal for this series is 222.

    Thanks Possegal, for all you do for us!
