What a difference!!

Week 2 ended with a bang.  I made 4 great trips to the gym, my stamina is coming up and things on the diet front went real well.  I am not following any particular diet, just watching portions, and trying to stick with as much "real food" as possible.  And boy did it pay off.

This will be the last week in the 330s, as I drop down another 5 lbs.  My kids are really getting into this, giving big high fives and cheering rather loudly during homeroom this morning.  I love the way they crowd around the screen, all fighting to be the first to see the new number.  The poster printer is still out of paper, so as soon as that is filled, my big tracking graphing will be up on the front board so the rest of my classes can join the fun.

Best part about today:  A student in my homeroom said they are working right along with me and that they have lost weight since the start too :)  This may be the beginning of something awesome...

Start:  337.2
Current: 330.8
Goal: 299 by 12-23-08
