I did it! I am happy and proud of this achievement and I am seeing progress! Hope you all feel the same. I have received an eviction notice so with stress it has been good that I wasn't free to eat whatever I wanted (if I also wanted to win this game), because I would have eaten a lot!
I made it! I am in the UK and due to the time difference I have until 8am on the third day. That really helps!

I didn’t win this bet but the scale FINALLY went down. I’m only 2.5lbs away from my goal, I’m counting this as a person win! I started another diet bet to keep myself on track and reach my goals!
Congrats to all the winner!

Will have to make sure eating habits are on point for awhile. Slipped and fell on the ice yesterday and no better, so sitting at Emerg. And I was just starting to enjoy exercising again. :(

- Been awhile, wanted to wait until I saw ortho. It's a very bad sprain, thankfully ACL not torn. Where the muscle attaches is chipped off but the hope is the scar tissue will heal well. I have a new best friend until Pril 7th. No family dr. so no note for an exemption?
This is going to be a challenging weigh in for me. I was close to this weight a few days ago, but I got heavier after eating well, so now I need get it off again. At least there's going to be some easy to lose glycogen and water weight. :-( I am going to need to find a new place to live, so I had better make sure I win this game because I need money to move.

Good luck with the final push to who needs it! I hope I can reuse a weigh in for a game that ended today, but will be careful in any case to make future weigh it's easier. On one hand, I am glad the weight loss speed is slowing down to 1%, on the other hand it feels like this journey will take forever before I achieve goal weight. I am not going to lose much more than the 1% though, I feel like I need to alternate periods of intense weight loss and period of losing at a slower pace.
