Gosh I can't believe I wait so long to post on here. Where does the time go? 
I just put up new photos on my blog! I have lost 61.8 lbs. as of yesterday. 
I hope everyone else is having success and not feeling discouraged during this busy, busy food-filled holiday season. Why does the world have to make it so much harder during this time of year? 
Blessings,
Krisann

You look fantastic!
I just started Weight Watchers 1 month ago!!!
I have lost around 7 lbs. I would like to lose another 10lbs. I go to the group meetings as they are in walking distance and the time is do-able.
I have yet to begin an exercise program...just bought the WW Fitness DVD though, which is a start
I wanted to add that I also do not do artificial sweeteners and low fat foods. I swore that I wouldn't go out buying all new kinds of foods that no one else in the family would eat!

Congratulations on your weight loss! That is a wonderful accomplishment. I lost 35 lbs this past summer and have been maintaining that weight loss now for nearly 3 months.
I am sure there are a lot of people wishing you well!

Krisann, I echo what everyone else has said - you look great! I need to be jumping on the Weight Watchers bandwagon with you, just have to make sure that I'm not pregnant at the moment. It's hard for me to tell because my cycles haven't returned yet from Emily's birth. So, am still not sure if the symptoms I've been having are pregnancy or PMS.  The last pregnancy test was negative, I'm going to test again next weekend to be sure.
You're my inspiration, Krisann!

Congratulations, Krisann! Great work! (Couldn't see the pics because my computer blocked your blog for some reason )
Stephanie, I'm totally with you on the no artificial stuff. I always think eating REAL food is the best way to go.
Taffy, can't wait to hear the results....

Thank you, Everyone! I appreciate the compliments, they are very motivating.
My blog is having issues. Tech support is working on it so hopefully it will be working correctly again soon.
Anyway, I just had to share! I am in the 160's! I haven't been in the 160's since 1996. As of yesterday I was 168.6 for a loss to date of 64.4 lbs.
Congratulations to all of you who have just joined or are maintaining your weight loss. Everyone is doing fantastic!
Remember to take it one day at time and ask yourself before you eat something a little (or a lot, ) less than healthy - do I REALLY want this or will something healthier satisfy me? If you REALLY want it, eat it, SLOWLY, and enjoy it, then move on. Don't punish yourself for an occasional indulgence AND don't use an indulgence as an excuse to give up. 
Blessings,
Krisann

Thank you!  It is funny that you say I look like a teenager, someone thought I was one of my daughters recently.
My girls have a love/hate relationship with my weight loss. They hate the fact that I look more like them and that we are getting close to the same weight but they are happy that I am getting healthier. My mom is a little miffed as well. She had always been thin until the last year or two, but now I weigh less than she does.
I haven't lost much this week, only .2 but I have been working out more and trying to concentrate on my abs so hopefully I will see some shrinkage, . The best thing recently though is, I can wear my wedding band again! I haven't been able to wear it for more than 11 years. I never wanted to get it resized because I had every intention of losing the weight and now I finally have!
I hope everyone else is doing well during this very hard to stay on track time of year.
Blessings,
Krisann

Just a note about the blog issues --
I *think* everything is working again. There was a bad script that was causing some anti-virus programs to block the page and some to give a false "virus warning." I deleted the entire blog and reuploaded everything so it should be good to go.
PLEASE if anyone else gets an error warning or cannot view the site, post a message with the browser version you are using so I can check out what the problem might be. 
Thank you!
Blessings,
Krisann
