& the week ones are in

so the first stats are in. & it's looking good. i'll let my cohorts reveal their own triumphs to the world, but myself, i lost five pounds, which makes me wicked happy. it's five closer to being able to do all those things that i want to do. & it's five pounds closer to me winning the big money!

it's like the biggest loser, except in the real world & without trainers. oh wait, it's like actually losing weight in the real world! & not the MTV show : ) so here's a tracker. i picked a weight that i would be happy with. & this is a new ticker for readers of both my blogs so that your eyes don't get bored.
