Helen, good news about the size 8! It had to feel good. Actually, I think they are making the sizes smaller! ;)

After gaining 1/2 lb the prior week, this week I lost another 2 1/2 lbs, making it 105 to date! <img border="0" alt="[vhappy]" title="" src="graemlins/icon_vhappy.gif" />

I still want to lose another 25 by the time we board CROSS in November. I think it's doable. I just need to concentrate on burning an avg. of 750 more calories than I take in each day!
